  • how is your diet?.....thats the most important question. you cannot out exercise a bad diet. not assuming yours is bad...but its something to think about.
  • the eyes! staring sultry goodness into my soul! :p
  • some form of cardio 5 days a week man!.....2-3 times a week do very vigorous cardio, high intensity intervals etc....the rest of the week.....easy steady state and some hectic jams to dance to ;)......rest for 2 days in you will get fitter quicker and avoid injuries :)
  • firstly, if you crave anything never deprive yourself. Just always remember that there is always lower calorie substitute. Personally if im cravin chocolate, i usually get fat free yoghurt and buy unsweetened cocoa powder. one table spoon of that chocolate dust to the sweet yoghurt mix it thorougly and you have chocolate…
  • Hey All! It is definitely very POSSIBLE however you have to be mentally ready for it!! i lost about 90 pounds and gained a significant amount of lean muscle as well and i will tell you that the key to the fat burning part is your DIET and the Muscle building part is EXERCISE! 40/40/20 is ideal for this body recomposition…
  • mine is slighly unsual ...:/ but i verbally self abuse....i say to myself "move you f***ing whale!!" or "sack of fat cells!" and the visuals anger me and get me to work out harder. its weird but it works for me lol
  • I say you weigh in once a week and dont sabotage yourself the day before by eating salty foods or having a mini binge....i am exactly like you are and i find that weighing in once a week and sitting down to analyse what i did wrong or right in that week gave me a better judgement of my progress. All in all...you have lost…
  • i think a small 300ml of diet can every other day or even every day cant be too detrimental....it will eventually add up and may cause future issues but for now you are alright....drinking 5 everyday or 2-4Litres, now that putting you on a fast track to all sorts of health issues. i say cut down very slowly until you dont…
  • bottom line is if you want to loose weight and get fit and in shape per say.....cereal isnt the best option for breakfast. too much starch with not enough fibre in most cereal....id suggest oatmeal (original unsweetened) instead...it has very slow digesting carbohydrates giving you ample energy through out the morning and…
  • what defines attractive though? hahaha funny post
  • well done!!! you look stunning! now its time to kick in the exercise and blast through the last 14 till goal! ......well done ! :D
  • nows the time to START lifting HEAVY! and increasing your lean protein intake.......maximise your current will! it wont be there forever. WELL DONE MATE!!!! you are awesome!
  • i try not to everyday except i am experimenting on a new food or change in my workouts.... that way i see what my body is responding to...but if on a normal basis....about once a week is best. otherwise you become OBSESSED WITH A NUMBER! and it will ruin your life and your image of yourself everyday. :)
  • congrats on the lovelies! you can do it!!! just keep breast feeding as much as you can and eat healthily for you and your baby! Also look at miranda kerr for inspiration! goodluck! :)
  • your body is adapting! you should be proud of that it means that your body is being responsive and is waiting for you to throw in the next thing to get it going. I say you start to workout.... a light walk jog walk session everyother morning or night (when its cooler) should do the trick for now. dont worry about your…
  • keep the fire burning!!!! Goodluck! you are truly inspirational! :)
  • i honestly dont even know the difference in the taste because i dont eat it a lot. however butter is better for you than margarine anyways so id say butter with a fair amount of moderation. :)
  • half a grape fruit with breakfast will add a slight boost to your metabolism and give you a well rounded range of nutrients. but a diet focussed primarily on grapefruit is a FAD diet and will eventually lead to relapse and regain. which is what you want to avoid. Just maintain a balanced diet and include superfoods like…
  • firstly 4 pounds in a month is not a bad start....not the best, but nonetheless not a bad start. I will advise you to change your workout and diet slightly. include more weights and higher intensity cardio. cut out one processed food each week and see how that changes your loss for that week most of the time simply not…
  • babe! i totally get where you are at..i have been there too... but thankfully i figured it out quickly. YOU NEED TO NET AT 1400 - 1500 for a looooooooooooooooong time!.....the initial gain you experience is not fat rather its water. the more carbs you take in the more water your body holds. 1g of glycogen holds about 4…
  • i am addicted to peanut butter period!.....i have been known to eat a 500g jar in one day......:D....now i dont even want to see it or every fibre of my being will crave it!...:D
  • Its very common bbe and i wouldnt worry about it. I too had this yesterday, although i pushed through, It took everything from me...Its usually your body telling you that you either need more fuel or better fuel. So make sure to have a high complex carbed meal an hour before. you need calories to burn calories. So fuel up…
  • exercise is one thing...but DIET is NUMBER 1...if you eat the right amounts of healthy foods...the weight will come off. easy as. that coupled with a varied exercise routine..it should be dripping off you in no time...gdluck
  • fell off the treadmill......on my last 15 seconds.........i felt so stupid i was doing ''HIIT".....picked up my water bottle and left with my head down haha
  • research has shown that juice fasting doesnt necessarily cleanse out your system and will only result in loss of water weight not actual body fat except your caloric intake in really low. you just need to pick a day and start your desired lifestyle and with time you body will adjust itself. There is no need for the…
  • start now......do strength training first then your cardio. you dont need to change your workout everyday. actually it might be counter productive if you do it everyday.. you need repetition and consistency so it becomes a routine and your train your muscles for a particular type of activity and avoid injury. id say change…
  • i think its just psychological mate...except you are taking concentrated doses of caffeine its not making enough of a diffference to count. so eat well fuel your body with healthy complex carbs etc and you will run efficiently and train your body to use its own resources.. goodluck mate Cheers Richard
  • well done mate! you guys did really we'll...my proudest point was running my first 5k non stop ...i did it in about 30 minutes....i felt so invincible then....now i do it under 20...and my time is reducing so its a constant plus!...goodluck on your full marathon....you guys will be amazing i trust..:)
  • well said mate......most overweight people are guilty of the "all talk ono action' motto....but the few who manage to do something about it seriously are the ones to be truly commended. cos its not easy trying to loose weight and be healthy when you are already obese. Its the same out here in the americas. Slowly but…
