When i work I work from 7am untill 9.30pm with an hour travelling each way... There is no chance in me doing anything before or after work... espcially if im working two days in a row :s

Haha I like your thinking!

No need to be so patronising, i am not a newbie to MFP. the message boards are for help and advice... Everyone has to start somewhere! Keep negative comments to urself thanks :)

I didnt say 'downing cider' for the record lol!

haha i guess a little bit but I have been eating so much junk and cider over christmas its just gradually become bloated. I decided to eat health and exercise two weeks ago and no reduced bloat..... peppermint tea maybe? and sip water throughout the day? I read if you down water it can cause bloat.

thanks, I am logging as accurately as possible without weighing, using cups or eg, half a medium sized onion etc. I am trying to over guess as research says people tend to under guess weights ... I think it is bloating because it is hard and sticky out! lol I am 131 and i am due to weigh on Wednesday to see any difference.…

Im not accurately tracking at the moment I am waiting for my scales to arrive. I don't tend to track water i always forget and I know I dont drink enough, i drink a lot of tea? I chose omelette nothing added, because I didnt use cooking oil and I added the cheese and onion I used seperately? Is that not how I should be…

Thanks! Im not looking to use it as a special diet short term thing, i was just looking into it for a boost for the first few weeks for motivation purposes. Seeing results makes me want to carry on working for it. I intend to eat within deficit and work out four times a week or more regardless of adding the tea or not. On…

I thought so... confused myself then!

I have figured it out..... How does this sound: 3x REST DAY - 1421 cals -carbs 31.6% -pro 36.9% -fat 31.6% 4x WORKOUT DAY - 1827 cals -carbs 35.7% -pro 28.7% -fat 35.7% BMR = 1310 TDEE = 2030 Week TDEE =14212 0.75lbs a week over 13 weeks GOAL - Fri Apr 10th - 121lbs How on earth do I eat that much in a day and loose…

I changed my goals and chose the recommended by MFP option and it has given me cals per day at 1200 and sorted my macros out for me at 40% carb 30% protein and 30% fat?

Thanks, I will do 1600 and see how I go. At the moment I don't think I am logging accurately as I am waiting for my scales to arrive. I am just guessing at the moment and going by cups with rice etc.

im 5'2 131 lb im a student nurse i work three 12 hour shifts a week and the rest of the week im a sloth (Y) Running twice a week and metafit twice a week x

Haha no i meant my the friends of my boyfriend :D Plural friends One boyfriend.... sorry bad grammar!

Really? Thats a lot....

I have read it but I cant deal with all the equations... I will ask one of my boyfriends mates to make me a plan most of them are fitness coaches (Y)

just used a TDEE calculator, BMR (Calories) 1407 Activity (Calories) 791 Total Calories 2198

Thanks :) Just brought some Vivo kitchen scales Argos clearance from £29.99 to £6.99 :)

Okay sorry, im being a bit dumb here but what is a deficit? Im burning around 200-300 cals per work out on average. Im aiming to go running twice a week minimum and metafit class twice a week if Im not at work. So Four times a week exercise, How many cals should I be consuming? I want to loose fat and get lean, do i need…

what is a food scale? I go to metafit twice a week, an intense 30min class working all areas of your body, three sets of paired exercises.

Thanks Silver Rose :)

I know exactly how you feel, I am a student and I work full time placement without getting paid for it, having to somehow fun my fuel of 50 miles a day traveling there and back. I have started going running rather than to the gym, it saves money! And always buy frozen veg and chicken breasts saves a tiny bit!! I try and…

No i havent brought it... And I dont know why some people need to be so patronizing when im only asking advice! Iv never done a proper diet before... Sorry if my thread offends some of you!

I was wondering if anyone had done it and what they thought of it. That is all.

Im trying to find a balance, work out and tone up and keep it off. I was only wondering if the bootea was worth doing along side that....

anyway i have already said im not doin low carb this time... I am watching my carb intake only because i tend to live off pasta and not get the protein that I should daily.

I put it on again gradually over a year when eating junk and not working out.... not that bad!

anyone got the Weight Watchers Glass Body Analyser Scales. They are 14.99 in Argos, half price! With body fat readings x

I am counting cals as well, 1200 a day. I did a low carb diet a year or so ago and lost 13lb in 6 weeks, that is why I feel for me limiting carbs gives results!

The Fitbit scales are a bit out of my price range unfortunately.... They seem amazing thou!
