  • To be honest I can't remember- I did it using information from here a few months ago, and then cross referenced with a few of those TDEE calculating websites so see if I was working it out correctly and they all came close. I suppose it would be an idea to look at it again.
  • Sorry meant TDEE is 1700 from what I worked out so I was going for 1500 calories
  • Thanks for replies so far everyone. Really helpful. Flex500 - that's a super idea about finding neutral weight - I never thought of that.

  • I currently eat porridge for breakfast a couple of times a week so will increase that. And I also put oats in my smoothies. So that's good I am on the right track! At the gym I tend to rotate around the cardio machines so hopefully that will make more difference if I up the time I spend doing it. Thank you!
  • Great thanks. I didn't realise that the juice would be adding so much! Almond milk sounds like a good idea- might give that a go! I know that measuring out properly is the way forward, but because I normally just use whatever I can find in the fridge I wouldn't want to do it every time. But i suppose it would give me a…
