ok thanks, I will take a look.

Aww, thank you. I appreciate that. It is a stinker. :-/. I am trying by cutting back on some carbs but I'm not sure that this works too well as I am struggling to consume enough calories now! :-(.

Definitely vodka, lime juice and soda. It makes a very refreshing long drink . Have fun!

A fantastic journey, thank you for sharing.

I will take on board all that you are all saying as the scales absolutely depress me. Here goes!!! de -scale the scale.

OK, I'm ready for ya.

That is absolutely fantastic. Great job!

That's amazing! What is your secret? I have not been at all successful.

I find some of this highly confusing also but I will try to help. This site will give you the calories you need to eat per day to be able to exist. e.g- for my height and age I should eat about 1900 calories a day but to lose weight safely, I need to eat 500 calories fewer than that ,which means eating 1400 calories a day.…

Perfect! I've been waiting for someone to say those things.I like some 'healthy' foods, I also like some good old fashion fish and chips once and a while. A little of what you fancy does you good. I believe that's how the saying goes. 6lbs lost and moving forward.:tongue:

When I'm using the bike at the gym I use a programme called 'random' which is like travelling up and down hills, but not many stationary bikes at home have those programmes so, another thing you can do is peddle at a decent pace for about 1min 30secs and then increase the pace (fast pace) for 30 secs and keep repeating…

My schedule looks a bit like this; Mon-Gym mixture of cardio and weights 1hr Tues-rest Wed-as Mon Thurs-Zumba 1hr Fri-Zumba or rest if knackered Sat-Gym cardio and weights 1 hr. So please tell me trainer why I still can't lose weight?

bake pork in the oven, top with mustard and cheese, loverly! With the ground turkey you could perhaps make turkey burgers or turkey meatballs?

Absolutely! Try Zumba ,it is such a good workout and a whole lot of fun too.It's just dancing really using south American styles like;salsa,cuban, hiphop and others. There are loads of classes popping up all over the country. If you go onto the Zumba website you can find a class near you. Good luck.

I will be 42 next month and want to be a yummy mummy not a frump. So I'm in

30 mins of Zumba early this morning and a 9- hole of Golf this afternoon. 561 calories used, thank you. x

That is simply, fantastic. Huge congratulations for sticking with it and being very successful. You look fabulous!

I love Zumba it's amazing fun and does make you sweat buckets, I have just started doing a 20-30 min session in the mornings before work. I have no idea how many calories it burns, I tend to put it in as high impact aerobics and judging by what ruthie has just said that's probably about right.As well as the calories it…

That's amazing, well done you. You look great!

Ok, why not. I'm in 5' 4" SW 173 GW 163 by 14/02/12 Let's do it!

Although I haven't seen any major results as yet ( it's early days) I am really enjoying Zumba. It's just like dancing, it comes from South America and incorporates all types of Latin American moves like Salsa and Merengue, there's even some belly dancing moves. It's a good cardio workout as well as toning and shaping the…
