  • It isn't including your workouts. you add those in after. How much do you want to lose? I've lost nearly 5 stone and generally I've had it set to 2lbs a week.

  • I found that I lost absolutely fine without exercise but the more I lost the more I felt bored and wanted to get up and go places. I read somewhere that it's 80% diet and only 20% exercise so I wouldn't worry and just spend those calories enjoying life! Most recently, I find that I am exercising 3 times a week but I do…

  • you have to physically go into your settings and switch it around a bit in order for it to refresh your goal calorie intake. I always pop mine onto like half a lb a week then back onto whatever I'm on. Seems to work. You lose about 10 cals a day every time you drop one or two lb. So I've noticed anyway. x

  • I used to do this a lot and now I make sure that I have a cup of rooiboo tea or something similar, sometimes a low fat hot chocolate for 100 cals and go to bed.

  • Just went for my first run today since I broke my leg in march. Thanks for the inspiration! I've been swimming and cycling to build up the strength in my leg but it was so hard to run today. Gotta take it slow! I'm using the couch to 10k app, love it.

  • I always like to munch when I get in from work so I've had to try and find alternatives. I find that a big plate of cucumber and tomatoes is always good. Perhaps with some ground pepper and balsamic vinegar. Yum. Not many calories either. Like, 50-70 max

  • This thread and advice has really helped me this morning. I broke my leg in march and it has changed my life. I now want to lose weight to be lighter on my leg and stronger. Been on 1400 calories a day for 5 weeks and I've lost 10lbs. Been exercising like crazy. This week I've actually gained a pound or two. Keep telling…
