Dan calculated my calories intake and I gained for about 6 weeks and then all of a sudden ...... WHOOOSH I started losing like crazy. He didn't have to help you but he did and this is how you thank him? Niiiiiiice.

Just started NROLFW. Cardio bores me so much so I'm loving this program so far :)

I'm going into my 3rd week of this. Feel free to add me.

I use ON Chocolate mint or MyProtein chocolate nut mixed with coconut milk. I find it hard to get enough protein without using them.

I started Monday. Would love some friends who are doing this program to keep me motivated :)

I know myself that if I eat anything with wheat or yeast in it my mouth breaks out in ulcers and I'll get thrush a few days later. Went for the coeliac test but came back clean but anything that's wheat or yeast free is gluten free as well so I usually just say I'm a coeliac.

Thanks for all the replies guys :) I'll update this thread in a few weeks time letting you know how I get on.

Coconut yogurt is the best :) I do take measurements yes. Haven't changed. The scales I have measures bf% and this has gone up. Been doing this for the last 2 months or so.

I do more strength training than cardio. (But it's not muscle that's weighin me down - I take measurements on my waist, tummy, hips etc and they aren't changing) I'll use that link above and work out my TDEE

Yeh see I think one of my problems is the fact that last year I was the same starting weight and the weight had no problem coming off whereas now I'm finding it really really difficult to even shed .5lb.

I was attempting to up my calories from yesterday onwards. Today I won't be going to the gym (absolutely in bits from a crossfit workout from yesterday). So you reckon I should be eating 1400 while not training?

I've found that if I do eat my exercise calories that I don't lose weight at all. How I lost the weight the first time was working out 4/5 days, burning 250-350 calories and eating between 1200-1300 so I'm wary about eating them back.

I'm 5'2. I work out 4/5 days a week. Usually burn about 500-700 calories a day in my workouts. They vary from Spinning to kettlebells to crossfit to weight lifting.

I agree with you regarding the light yogurt. I just actually really like the taste of that particular yogurt. Can't find a full fat coconut yogurt. I don't usually have any 'low-fat' products. I had a protein shake yesterday for the first time in months to up my calories but I would prefer to be eating real food.

I'd like some buddies as well. I'm 5'2.

Wow. Just wow.

Optimum Nutrition in chocolate mint. Yummy.

im 5'2 hw: 135 cw: 123 gw 110 I did get to 120 but then I binged a lot so back to 123 now.

I think its VILE. I'm trying to offload it on people I don't like :)

That to me sounds like the right amount to burn for 20mins exercise if you are relatively fit.

I'm going to try this and see how it works. Very nervous though.

You shouldn't use them as a meal replacement.

I know it's rude but I'd be thinking to myself as well that I should probably change what i'm doing if it is the 'pissy' way.

Stereotypical and not cool. :explode:

Why does he have to suggest it? Why can't you suggest it?

Would also like to know this.
