I'm 5ft2 and want to get to at least 120lbs and see how I feel

Great thanks for clearing that up ...I'm 187 lbs . I have about 60-70lbs to lose I'm just 5ft 2.. I will set to start off the MFP till I feel more confident in the amount I'm eating .... ( I had used the scooby calculator and another and were both different tdee ) so the changes with what I eat and exercise I will see a…

So I'm unsure as was looking at my TDEE yesterday I set my activity to exercise 3-4 a week with a loss of 2lbs a week .... it's given me a figure of around 1600 calories ...the mfp sets it way lower at around 1250, so with the MFP I would eat them calories exercised back but the tdee calulator way I don't ? Iv tried before…

What cambridge plan is it you are doing and how much exercise are you currently doing ?

Thank you for the advice

Thanks for that makes sense thanks ... Actually I hadn't increased tbh the thought of the 1783 cals frightens me and have checked scooby and for 5/6 times a week exercise for me is 1984 . Is that right seems a lot . I will get used to it I will keep pushing through ... Not lost a lb yet but did read that some take longer…

I guess actually I feel as if I'm pushing harder ... I don't always exercise at the same time everyday but I do probably eat about an 30min - 1 hr before most workouts .. I have upped my exercise I am lifting 3 x a week and have added some cardio on non weight days it was however body pump yesterday which was my first time…

I would also like to know this as its at my gym also and some mornings very early and could have this prior to my breakfast that would be a few hours later

Great thanks well done for being back on track ... Just getting used to it I know I will and will be. the scales are now ditched.

Thank you I will take a look ... No I have no entries as I have been on and off replacements for a while . It was going from lots of exercise to zero and 3 kids and snacking - crisps are my failure :-/ Thank you for replies

I started sl 5x5 on sunday at home but only have a max of 30kg of plates my barbell is only 2.5kg at most so not Olympic at all. is it ok to use a lesser weight then the programme stats in the beginning? I will be purchasing more but for the time being to get me start is this ok? will I still see some results in the coming…

This is a great post thanks. I have recently put quite a bit of weight on but am on a good diet now and doing classes etc but really want to get into the weights again I used to do it when I was a lot younger and it feels good. But cos of my increase in weight I feel quite anxious about going into the weights section of…

That's good to know thanks . I will continue with polar beat but will look into the subscription of digifit too. Thanks

Let me know what you come up with, and I'll do the same. [/quote] Will do I have downloaded the digitfit so will keep you posted ????

I also have put a post up today regarding my H7 I have been using whilst doing spin but have been using polar beat app and I like the app great visuals. I am to overweight so wanted to make sure it was given me the correct feedback. So I downloaded the mapmyfitness app and ran the two apps together when I was doing an…

Thanks for explaining this - it is something I have had trouble getting my head round too - I will see how it all works out... Thanks

I started spin also last week and loved it I did two classes last week and three classes this week. I have 3 different instructors for all classes and they do all teach differently. Love the fact that you actually know you are working your butt off. I think I may be addicted now :-)

I purchased the polar H7 to work with my Iphone - I am relatively new to exercise but wanted to keep a track of calories burned etc. So far so good it works really well and great to see how hard I worked with the visuals on the app but also good to be able to see on online via computer too . You do have to pay for the app…

I really like the MOSSA for my fitness on the xbox one. hoping they will release some more for it soon. was also thinking of buying the zumba. if you do let us know how it is . :-)

Just tried mossa fight loved it but kicked me out half way through to my main Xbox page and does not let me resume workout and nothing was recorded. Hope it doesn't happen again :-( any ideas of calories roughly for 15 mins ?
