On Day 45 of the lean program and loving it! I wanted to burn some fat off before I started building more muscle. I STILL have some tummy flab after having my baby 19 months ago even tho I'm thin everywhere else. I've started adding a couple of extra cardio sessions during the week as well.

I agree and if you do have to have bread, make it yourself. It's not hard at all and wholemeal bread flour is very inexpensive. According to an article about overindulging in Health and Fitness Magazine August 2012 issue: A study by Oxford University has discovered that about three hours after a big meal, most of the fat…

It's really good in meatloaf. Basically, use it as you would use beef mince and it's so much healthier

Hi, I'm 23. You guys can feel free to add me too. I still struggle with chocolate sometimes but for the most part I've conquered my bad eating habits. I will do what I can to help and would like some motivation too :)
