gain in muscle perhaps? means your body needs more fuel to maintain and continue their growth?

hey! Firstly, everyone in a gym doesnt care who's around them, they're all just too busy doing their own thing to be bothered about what everyone else is doing. i used to be exactly like you and be so paranoid about going to the gym but its seriously not at all like you imagine. Does your gym perhaps do ladies only at any…

ABS!

I feel like a 30 DS baby, but i just did day 5 of level 1. feeling like its so so much easier than the first day but im determined to do 10 days of each level!

body weight exercises are great! i purchased a set of dumbells that came with a barbell bar pretty cheap, that could be something to look into :)

cheeky :)

Thanks again everyone. This has made me feel loads better!

Thanks everyone. It's nice to see that I'm not the only one this is happening too. I'm still going to keep going but it is slightly demotivating. I guess this thing gets harder the closer we get to our goals!

Thanks so much for the replies everyone. I guess tucking the watch down or attaching it around my sports bra would work, I just didn't know if it had to be on your wrist or not! I'll definitely have to look into it!

Hey AS, you may have just seen that as i changed my calorie goal, I've generally been eating up to my amount :)

ahh i see. I'm very excited to start this tomorrow! I really appreciate all your help :)

I'm definitely one that eats (as of tomorrow anyway) Also, my fitness pal says I'm set to lost 0.2ibs a week, is this about right?

Ill definitely look into the protein powder but i can't really afford it at the minute as I've just recently lost my job :( I'm very excited to start this out though, is it okay if i add you as friends? so i can check out your diary and such? :)

oh I've had that before, its yummy! So i set the carbs to 40% and fat and protein to 30%? :) i really appreciate your help x

thank you, ill edit those too! Ive already taken measurements from a week ago and they're the same anyway just now anyways :) Do you think i should be eating more dense foods, as opposed to more (if that even makes sense?) Like eat high calorie bread and such?

As of tomorrow then i shall give it a shot. 2013 here i come :) just hoping i don't get too discouraged if i do see that the scale has gone up but ill definitely try troop it out!

Oh I wonder where I went wrong then? Haha, Do you think upping the calories should be done gradually? Or just go for it and up them to 2013 straight away? I really appreciate your help, i feel stupid for not understanding haha. x

Just feel like it could make a lot of difference to my hunger. 300 is quite a lot! haha. I just don't know if 1380 is really too low for me? I'm 5ft 8, exercise 2-3 times a week and I'm 20 years old. just feel like i should probably have more

I'm 20 and from the uk. Feel free to add me!

that counts! :D

I'm working on adding you all, but it's not letting me add anyone else for 10 minutes now! Feel free to add me :)

Nice to have lots of new friends from the UK! Hello to you all!

Thank you everyone. you're all wonderful :) I think i'm definitely going to give the gym a miss tomorrow, and see how i feel after that. Like i said i can be quite active at work so hopefully that'll be enough if i stay within my calorie limit too :)

This made me giggle!

There's just so much conflicting advice everywhere, i though't i'd ask you guys. I have to run up and down 6 flights of stairs a few times a day at work anyway so i guess that's better than nothing, right? my nose is just completely blocked and obviously that's not going to help me at the gym.

i didn't know about this, i'm new to MFP :) thank you

?

I'll have another look in the health shop next door to my work tomorrow and see what i can find. They just all seem really rather expensive. Does anyone here live in the UK and can recommend a brand, or know of any that could get imported in pretty cheaply? as far as i can see things in America seem to be cheaper than they…

Hi Guys, i've been here for about two weeks now and don't have many friends on here to share and gain encouragement from! I'm 20 years old and looking to shift about 9/10kg :) Feel free to add me :)

Egypt is absolutely lovely! you'll love it! I'm from Manchester by the way everyone :)
