  • Hi, as you appear to know what you are talking about when it comes down to carbs v protein, would you be so kind enough to answer this question for me please? I used to attend Curves in Southampton England and after joining their nutrition classes, it was perceived, that because my weight loss was extremely sluggish, I…

  • Agree, most of this science stuff absolutely confuses me. One source will say one thing and just when you think you have it sussed, another source says something totally different. If everyone who cut down on eating, went into starvation mode and hung onto their weight, there would be no such thing as anorexia. Before all…

  • I think I would go for the lower fat option, however, it would be interesting to know where the extra calories came from if not fat. Be careful it's not sugar as this turns to fat in bloodstream.

  • Hi I'm 64, recommended to this site via the slimfast plan and find the food diary amazing and obligatory to my weight loss journey. I don't know what I am doing wrong but I've lost the plot on how to get to chat to anyone on this site, it's not obvious (to me) where I start! I'm have no problem on the SF one, think I am…

  • If I were you I would reduce my calorie intake bit by bit, as well as cutting down on exercise. Your initial idea to increase your calorie intake was the right one. However, I think you over compensated slightly and perhaps just needed to add the calories a little at a time and see how it went until you found the right…

  • I don't think it so important as to how many calories you are burning per minute as much as the fact you are actually taking part in a crucial exercise programme. Regular, rhythmic, brisk walking can lead to beneficial physiological changes in many of the body's processes such as lower blood pressure, lower cholesterol and…

  • I've just joined today and I am on the Slimfast Plan, shakes for breakfast, cereal bar for lunch, wholesome low fat dinner and three snacks per day. I've been on the plan for 28 days and only lost 6lbs, so disappointed not to have lost more. I am slimming for health as well as weight loss, my cholesterol is high, I have…
