Welcome. The support on here can be a massive help. feel free to add x

Like many above have said it is important not to undereat as your body will go into starvation mode. As for not being able to find something to eat or find the time. I had the same problem... rushing for work in the morning and not having time to make anything and missing the most important meal of the day. I always have…

No need to apologise, we have all done it. Its good to build up a network of friends on here for support :)

1lb of fat is 3500 kcals of stored body fat. So to lose 1lb a week you would have to be 500kcals under every day. So your looking at roughly 1250 kcals under a day to lose the weight your talking about... which is alot, this could be done though if you exercise well and get the right food on board. Also look into taking…

your welcome buddy. every little helps... keep us posted on how you are progressing. good luck

Hi mate. Seems like you live a busy lifestyle and im in no position to question that... I guess with the exercise thing you could try and change little things? e.g walking upstairs rather than using lift? Not sure if you could adjust small things like this, which would make a difference? Also a suggestion would be to try…

wow ur working really hard :) keep it up!!

South Wales.. feel free to add. Good luck x

be more focused and dedicated tomoro :) can always do a little session to burn a few extra calories for today. could do a little tabata session which can be done in 4 minutes and get ur heart rate up and burning some of those meatballs off lol

welcome guys. ul have plenty of support on here. good luck!!! :)

cool. thanks for the info. think il do the cardio recovery tomoro morning then hit the kettlebells in the evening. think i need to get a HRM, especially for the interval training. :)

Hey. Just did the Pure Cardio... TOUGH!!! had to take a few breaks but il get there :) also like the football exercise which someone mentioned above. I do a kettlebell session on a monday and thursday, which is a 37minute workout... which is very tough. great total body workout. and also do a couple of gym sessions a week.…

Room for a man in this discussion? lol Been reading all your comments and found them very interesting.. i have just started insanity and am on day 4.... mixing it with my own training so trying to fit in 3-5 insansity sessions a week. Here are my fit test results: Switch Kicks - 100 (or is it 50? im not sure if u divide it…

kettlebells is an awesome workout and you can literally work your whole body if done correctly... look on youtube... there are many cool workouts on there. if your having trouble finding good ones, re message on here and il link you up. enjoy.

Nothing wrong with getting in touch the day after... just tell her... had a good time with you, was fun and your an interesting woman. name a couple of days your busy even if you aint and say we should meet up on friday... eg hey, had a great…

My 2 favourite songs at the moment that give me that extra boost are... Tinnie Tempah - Pass Out and Tiesto ft Busta Rhymes - C'Mon... Love it!!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_azpJy1NFI

Havent done TF, but iv recently started Insanity... like the lady above says.. its going to push ur physical and mental limits and isnt a whole lotta fun. But you will get fitter, stronger and in better shape with it. All depends on your of fitness i think... if your in decent shape and ready for some Insanity then do…

Recently started the Insanity workout... its pretty intense. very good though. I believe the p90 workout has some elements that are weights based? so im not sure if you have weights available to you??? with insanity you dont need any equipment and you will get amazing results if you eat right also.... the workouts are…

thanks guys. hoping to see some positive results. just about to start my first session. here goes...

You look amazing, massive difference. Well done. You look very healthy. :)

my favourite at the moment is Tiesto - C'Mon!!

At the end of the day, MFP isnt some program that is going to work for some and not for others. It is given you a tool to track what your eating... Showing you if your having enough/too much of certain nutrients and creating a calorie deficit for you. 1lb of fat is 3500 stored calories... So you need to have a deficit of…

Good advice above. It could be a case of you gaining some muscle or water retention. Weight can be decieving sometimes, taking measurements is a good idea. Also a new scales may be needed. Make sure you weigh first thing in the morning, this is supposed to be the time of day when you get your 'true weight'. So always weigh…

thank you all for the advice. very helpful, think il try insanity out after your comments. should be fun... hmmm. dont think il be trying Zumba though lol... not really for me. Thanks again :)

dont give up... you will have setbacks along the way but never give up. i find reading the success stories to be really inspiring. sorry to hear about your knee... i snapped my cruciate ligament and was unable to exercise for 2 years while waiting for operation and then my rehab. so dont stress too much :)

you will get alot of support through this website. good luck with your goals :)
