I’m struggling with my exercises at the minute I’m going up and down all of the time it’s so frustrating

I’ve had quite a few when I lost the majority of my weight and I also realised how people treat me now compared to when I was bigger. To be honest it doesn’t really bother me as long as I’m fitting into my old clothes I’m over the moon with myself and keeps me motivated

I’m 4f9 and I’m stalling after loosing 2stone since March it’s taking me 2 weeks to loose a 1lb I keep yo-yoing by 2lb I’m down to 118 but need to get to 105. I’ve only ever been able to loose weight with 1000cals (discussed with dr and I’m not recommending it) I’ve also been hitting 15000 steps and over and going HIIT…

Thank you 😊 That’s awesome well done, it’s definitely all about perseverance, willpower and determination everytime I want to quit I just tell myself where I was and where I am now and ive put so much hard work in to give up now

Thank you so much 😊

Thank you 😊 all I’ve done is dramatically reduced my calories, stopped eating late, mainly drink water (a lot of water) if I have coffee I just use a little soy instead of semi skimmed milk or I use cinnamon with coffee. I don’t eat cake bars, crisps, that kind of junk food or fried food I have things like walnuts, Melba…

Thank you. I’ve always had to discuss with a dr when I’ve started a diet due to the amount of calories I need to loose weight and it’s just what I’ve been told 1-2 lb is a healthy amount. Some weeks it took me 2 weeks to drop 2lb it’s been a very hard to get here and for being 4f9 with a very small frame I was huge 36lb…

1-2 lbs is a healthy way to lose weight no matter how much you way

Thank you so much 😊

I actually meant 2 stone

Thank you I’ve started getting back on track hope you get your meds sorted there’s nothing worse than running out when they’re what are keeping your moods under control it was because of quetiapine I was on 2 years ago why I put so much weight on. An added problem I’m having at the minute is the dr suspected I was going…

That’s a great idea I’ll add that to my workouts with those, IF and calorie counting the weight is coming down nicely but this top bit of my stomach is proving to be a struggle its the only thing preventing me from dropping down into my old jeans

I lost 10lb in the first 4 weeks doing mild workouts and eating healthy building up to better workouts I have bipolar and working out as hard as I do is great for my mental health it keeps me motivated and keeps my moods under control I slowed right down for a few days and now I’m back on track I’ve lost 2 stone in 3…

I wouldn’t really say 3 stone is so little it’s a huge difference for me. And I changed my eating habits back in March that’s how I’ve been able to loose so much weight

Thank you 😊 do you only plank once a day ? I was doing 1 minute twice a day but wasn’t sure it was going to make any difference. I’m doing Chloe tings 2 week shreds but injured my wrist doing floor work so adding planks to my workouts will be a lot of help.

I’ll just preserve with the abs workouts for my back fat and thighs I did exercises to target those areas which I did have the results I was looking for I hope with the last 16lb of it will come off my upper belly

Thanks I’ll have a look into that the only weights I have at home is a kettlebell and didn’t want to spend money on more but I’ll see if there’s anything I can do

I do want to loose weight round my stomach but no where else and I don’t have back fat that’s all been delt with like I said everything else is fine apart from this round the top of my stomach

I’m 4f9 and I’m 122 for now but need to get to 105 my clothes fit fine if I was to buy bigger pants they’ll fall down and be baggy in my legs it’s just this little extra weight round my stomach I need to lose

Thank you 😊 Of course you deserve them I used to buy things in thrift shops and I still buy the odd thing I’ve got some really nice clothes in there it maybe worth having a look if your not wanting to spend too much.

Thank you I’ll give that a go

Thank you that’s great advice I do tend to keep my core tight while I’m walking but just don’t think of it in the house I’ll keep that in mind

Thank you 😊 I’ll just keep up with my current workouts and see if it shifts I just don’t want to loose anymore weight from the rest of my body.

I’ve gained and lost a lot of weight a few times since 2001 including when I was pregnant twice I lose it aswell as working out so the only loose skin I’ve ever had is my lower stomach from having 3 c-sections this is fat round the top of my stomach that I’m trying to get rid of I’ve done the thigh, back fat and arm…

Thank you 😊 I only bought 3 pair of jeans and rotated them and my bigger tops I bought in charity shops I hadn’t bought anything brand new in 2 years apart from underwear 🤣 If I can get rid of my muffin top most of my old jeans will fit now aswell

I’m just working out at home but I was pushing myself too hard and injured my wrist so I modified my workouts plus I’m doing IF aswell as calorie counting and trying to get my steps in maybe I need to cut one of these things out. I have been loving it especially seeing the weight come off and my old clothes fitting but it…

Thank you so much this is exactly what I needed to hear right now you totally right. I’m still pushing through in the hope I will get back on track because I think if I take a day off I’ll end up it starting back up again plus for a short while after it does make me feel a little better. Again thank you 😊

Thank you 😊 It definitely is i feel so much more confident in my pretty clothes I didn’t even want to leave the house when I was bigger

I have been IF but dirty fasting since March 16th and I’ve lost 19lb. The first day was easy but after that for the first 2 weeks it was hard I had bad headaches and my stomach sounded like it was screaming for food but it got easier

I hate my old photos I’m devastated by them the only reason I keep them is to keep me motivated or I think I would have given up
