Try 5:2 diet for two days you have 500 cals the other 5 days eat what you want. Your body starts to change it's cravings itself and knowing you can have whatever the following day isn't as hard as leaving it out forever. In the early days you will go to bed craving something and when you wake up you won't want it. I have…

I think that it is hard for small cafes that make on the premises, they would have to weight every part of everything they make or risk fines, easier for large chains that mass produce. I should think most people can figure a cheese mayo sandwich is high cal than salad sandwich, and that a cream scone is going to pack some…

Get started - slow at first then once the habit kicks in you can challenge yourself. I always think it is best to book a trainer to show you the correct way to lift weights (either free weights or machine) and really focus on correct 'form' rather than lots of kgs. I did read something a while back which explains that when…

Spinach - I know it is supposed to be good for you but YUK

I baked mine in foil with a touch of lemon juice and spread a teaspoon of honey mustard on top (or just honey). But lemon and pepper taste just as good. It doesn't take long to cook and it is a good starter for fish. I cook most white fish this way too, you do need a little bit of liquid to stop it drying out - water /…

Lets have more of these - scales don't tell the full story. I have to buy new clothes as I have gone down a size, starting to feel fitter. Having a guy at work mention very loudly (across a whole room of guys) I was looking skinny - quite funny really as I still have a way to go - but made me smile all day.

I second this - you need to see a qualified health practitioner - and not rely on a website. They may need to run a couple of simple tests to either stop you worrying or tell you if something is wrong and how to react.

Toast is always good - thankfully I don't have any bread in the house. Especially good with butter and marmite mixed and thinly spread.

Are you setting a challenge :laugh:

Just enjoy it and get back on track later, if you try to compensate the week before you may think you are justified (or are OK) going totally overboard. If you give yourself the space to relax over the weekend you may not go as mad as you think. Also you can get back on track straight after, have a workout planned and menu…

Thanks I am going to try this as it sounds really nice - as well as easy.

Thats the problem with Feb - it is cold for walking but just remember in a few more weeks you will be able to get out and walk the dog more - which is better than been stuck in an over warm gym, and if you are like me I prefer to get out with the dog rather than shut the dog in and then stress about having time to give it…

Hi I am sort of UK base (work abroad at minute but home is Yorkshire). In third week of 5.2 type diet so far. Think it is working but had to many treats last weekend. Also just discovered this app
