I've been battling with this question too! I've been sticking to my calories- eating back a lot of my exercise ones if I'm hungry but I don't seem to be getting anywhere. I'm stuck at 9st. I've been down to 8st13lbs twice in the last two weeks but it seems that that lb keeps going back on then off? I'm wondering if I…

Oh right thanks. I didn't realise that some of these exercises built strength...I always just thought 'weights'- clueless! Haha. But if I don't eat back some if not all of my exercise cals then surely I'd be eating too little?! Some days with swimming I burn roughly 400cals...if I don't eat back some of these then I'd only…

Ok thanks I might have a go at a few things. I already do pull ups so I might try push ups. Also I think my dad has some dumbbells so I might have a go with those. Thing is how can I work my legs? My arms really are no problem to me as they're the smallest thing on my body. My legs/thighs/bum is where the weight goes and…

[/quote] If you've read this thread, it should be obvious that you should be adding strength training to the mix. [/quote] I was scared you'd say this lol....To be completely honest I really do not know how? I cannot physically afford the gym often even at £5.25! :S Is there anything I can buy to do at home or anything?…

Hey. It's funny cause I was going to post something that may fall into this column just before I came across this thread. Basically I always seem to stay the same weight....whether I'm exercising or just eating what I want really. The 9st mark seems to love me! I know that this isn't heavy but I also know that at 5ft3 I…

False alarm guys...sure enough I was a lb lighter this morning haha! I know a lb is neither here or there but still pleased :) Yh you're right I don't actually have much to lose so I'm aware that it'll be slower for me. I'm average weight as it stands but cause I'm only 5ft3 I could do with being a little lighter. Oh…

It's great to be back on track today! :) Only had 3 days of being insane lol. I can definately afford that!

Wow I wish I couldn't stand food during my TOM...It has been a nightmare for me the last 3 days! I've been over by quite a lot Thursday and Friday. Today I'm over already but I doubt it's going to be as much as yesterday. I'm not too worried cause I'm eating what I'd usually eat before this and when I did that I didn't…

haha yes I second that...there's no way I can exercise...unfortunately I suffer a lot with mine. They're so heavy and I get lots of pain! It's a nightmare :( But I'm thinking if I'm hungry I'll eat and then I will definately be skipping my next period lol too much hassle! :P

Might try it! I was just so annoyed cause diet coke and malibu is only like 51 and I had more than enough for a few drinks but then I got regular coke! Tut...anyway on with today haha.

Yh I thought so haha! If only it wasn't!...

Thanks for all your replies. You all basically summed up what I thought. I think it's supposed to go hand in hand with exercise and is used as a toning mechanism. I know my mum used it everyday for a couple of months along with a healthy diet and she's lost loads of weight and nearly all her cellulite is gone! She doesn't…

@jenlawton Yes treats are fine in moderation. Tuesdays aren't the best days for me in sticking to my diet as I'm babysitting my cousin at my grandmas all day and this means treats such as kiddie cakes and a donut even today! But tomorrow's swimming day so I'm thinking it'll balance out :P
-
@kitmyers. Yes somedays I can do 1200 and then others I find I'm closer 1500 mark. But when I get the chance to exercise properly I find eating back the exercise cals much easier and I seem fuller. Swimming tomorrow :)
