This is the greatest message of the 'Fat Acceptance' movement. Real change can only come from a place of loving oneself and feeling that you a worthy. Too many people embark upon diets because they hate themselves and they feel they are not good enough. They choose to diet and exercise to punish themselves. The marketers…

Thank you, I got a lot from that

Thanks so much for your answer

Thank you for your replies. I'm in Australia so we are actually moving into summer and I get quiet a bit of sunshine. I pulled out my D supplements this morning though, to see if they might make a difference. I also don't drink coffee, I could try cutting back on the tea.

The deadlifts in Pump are Romanian Deadlifts. IMO although Pump gives you some good basics for lifting bench and squats, there is a lot more to learn to shift to Olypmic bars and lifting heavier.

Was weight watchers working for you? Is so depending I on what your pro points allowance was you could count 1200 cals and not count your veges and fruit

I moved to Nia Shanks (S) hero program after SL, I dont think my back could continue to cope with squatting 3 x a week (a disc likes to give me ****) Im really enjoying the change.

Thanks, I was just wondering about purchasing one, I already have a good pedometer, so I wont bother with the fitbit

You are an amazing, fierce woman! Thank you for sharing, you are inspirational

Wow, fantastic work. Congratulations. :smile:

They do, the 1200 cals comes from users choosing the highest weightloss per week goal, which is both unrealistic and unsustainable.

Hello, I got pulled up by a trainer for doing something similar on the squat, I think it's a height issue (you and I are the same height). What has helped is widening my stance and pointing out my feet. This allows my back to stay more upright and my bum and thighs to take the weight rather than my lower back. It took a…

I started a cut last week, I cut 500 cals (20%) and the first few days sucked, I was hungry and I missed the food. But after a few days I got used to it. I cut out things like the bread I had with my soup, butter, the Peanut butter I put in my porridge. I'm also adding more vege to my meals to fill up. Even when I ate at…

Squats make your thighs awesome, that is all!

Thank you for you advice haybales

Sorry to read your quitting, you must feel very frustrated. The science behind this method kinda makes sense to me, so it should provide results. I hope whatever you choose to do you reach your goals. :)

Thank you for answering, I think I get it, though maybe I don't.....So I have gained over 1kilo (2.2lb) weight each weekend for the last two weekends, I know that it's water weight as most of the gain dissappears by the end of the week, I don't know why it's happening the only thing that changes on the weekend is a couple…

Sorry to butt in, but haybales, why does an instant gain of water weight mean your metabolism is suppressed? Thanks

Bump - interested to know the answer

I saw a great video on the EM2WL website that explains the reset. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COzMKkXeiFo&list=PL09917F53B3B517FF&index=4

Thank you so much

If you are lifting lower than the suggested starting weight you cant change it. I used the notes section to record my weights until I got to 45

Would it help to remember that all those people dropping weight on low calorie diets have a very good chance of screwing their metabolism and ending back at their original weight or heavier in less than two years. You have made the healthier choice to feed your body what it needs. You're doing the right thing, just keep at…

Go Kaleo and Fit Mama Training are my loves. Sorry I don't know how to give links on this tablet, but you can google them

You are beautiful just the way you are. Dont let others define you. Love yourself and look after yourself.
