So reduce my deficit do you mean my total Cals for the day to maybe 1200.

Possibly ur right. I go through phases with water. I try hard to drink my three litres but then I go back to coffee and a few glasses of water for a few days. I also enjoy salt... Himalayan but i imagine that's the same thing when it comes to holding fluid

I should also add that I weigh daily and see massive fluctuations from day to day

Thank you for the information everyone. I need to lose around 25lbs to be back to my pre baby weight. The last month I have only lost two pound. But seem to keep losing and gaining that same two pounds. I have increased my workouts to four times a week. First I will do as suggested and really check I'm logging as…

Thank you very much :)

5 months post c section and she has pretty much given me the go ahead. In all fairness she's a bit rubbish! I'm trying to listen hard to my body for when it's really had enough or when it's just my brain telling me I can't carry on. Thank you :)

I have access to probably most equipment as I've recently joined a gym. I'm eyeing up free weights and kettle bells. For cardio I start with short…

I like to make meals in bulk on the weekends ready for microwaving in week when i know i wont have so much time on my hands. Soups/stews/casseroles always lurking somewhere in the freezer

I am following WW at the moment but am also trying to balance WW and MFP. Am religiously tracking ...the good AND the bad. Also trying to keep a blog to keep mind free of clutter. Feel free to add me. :)

Thankyou. MFP is telling me to eat 1300 which i know is way low for me. I am making the mistake at the moment of eating way under my points just so i dont go over the calories on MFP.
