Thank you. I'm not going to pay too much attention to the results as obviously results seem to be inaccurate. I will continue to power on with supplements and also ACCURATELY record my calories intake.

I'm not saying that I have a thyroid issue for sure. It was recommended to take these particular supplements as, according to my own personal research, one of the main causes of hypothyroidism is insufficient amounts of iodine. My iodine intakes has increased enormously with the addition of these supplements. It is still…

Back on topic, after purchasing some food weighing scales it would seem that I have been grossly under estimating some of my calorie intake. For example, I would usually have a bowl of granola pretty much every day. I got the scales out and poured in what I thought was 50-60g of granola. Turns out that the weight is…

Apologies. It's actually a Dietx machine I think it's called. No idea where I got Dach from! It is similar to this one: http://www.allergycarenutrition.co.uk/phdi/p1.nsf/supppages/3373?opendocument&part=3 I looked up food intolerance testing in my local area and only a few places do it. From the results that came out it…

Thanks. I've set my calories at my TDEE of 2,494 and in fast days I'll just ensure there's around 2,000 unused. I'm also thinking that there is no point in adding excercise as it seems best not to eat the extra calories.

Why is it a waste of time? If there is valid evidence that it's a waste of time then fair enough, but this comment doesn't really help me much.

Can you manually set your daily calories allowance on MFP and can it be change for days of fasting? Cheers!

Ok, thanks for the help guys. Jessie, fair enough that you don't agree with fasting. I have no problems with that. One thing I will say is that recently I've been learning a lot more about fasting and in actual fact it has massive health benefits so it most certainly isn't just for the weight loss. Look up autophagy and…

Thank you for that thyme4. I see that you're almost at your goal weight. Nice one! I checked my TDEE and it is 2,494. I guess I just take 20% off that and go from there? Have you been more successful on the 16:8 plan? I may just stick to it then and see how I go. Cheers!

Thank you Jessie. Best of luck on your weight loss journey! :-)

Wow, thank you very much for all the helpful replies guys! The consensus here is pretty obvious. I've probably been a bit naive in thinking that I will lose weight no matter what, but of course if I am overeating without properly realising then that's the problem right there. I should point out that one or the main reasons…

I had exactly the same problem with mine. It looks like it may have seized over time. I contacted Amazon (where I purchased) about it and they very kindly refunded me. I'll never buy a Polar watch again.

I'm wearing the FT7 black and red version right now as it happens and even though the strap is technically bigger there's countless links on it to fit any size of wrist. It will definitely fit unless you have finger-sized wrists. Lookwise it is quite neutral. It wouldn't look out of place on a female that's for sure!
