I agree with DWBalboa unless your diet is correct it will do nothing for you, maybe the first couple of weeks but after that, you need a structured diet and a training plan you can progress through with correct form as ninerbuff says. Lucy [edited by MFP mods]

I would suggest the tube style bands with handles. This usually comes in a pack with various resistance and you can progress through these. Lucy [edited by MFP mods]

Firstly if you don't have a step tracker I would get one, it doesn't need to be price at all just something to track your daily steps. I would then make sure you're hitting a certain amount each day and this does not go backward. I would look then to increase that over time. This is very good as it isn't strenuous, easy to…

Should I start lifting now already on a caloric deficit? Or should I first cut down to my goal (BMI 25) and then start lifting? Absolutly no need to wait. If I start now, should I progressively raise the weights I lift? Or should I just stay at my current maximum? Keep a logbook of your training, progressively overload…

I honestly don't like my clients running full stop but you sound experienced and enjoy it. I would suggest a split of run, train, rest, repeat and adjust according to that. Lucy [edited by MFP mods]

I would worry too much about green tea if you don't like it don't force it upon yourself. You do you :) It's not the wonderful thing people make it out to be. I love chia teas, earl grey (black) and the biscuit tea (I can't remember who this is by) these I all have black. I'm not a big fruit tea fan Lucy [edited by MFP…

It is mainly used as a thickening agent however tread carefully as it can cause digestive issues. Lucy [edited by MFP mods]

Can I ask why you're looking at your potassium stats it is a deficiency also why a strict 1200 if that is based on the MFP recommendation please do not use this as it is very inaccurate and takes very little about a person into account and you may be very under eating. Lucy [edited by MFP mods]

L1zardQueen is correct in that weight loss takes time and you certainly may not be eating enough and enough of the right foods. I would also advise not weighing yourself regularly as the number on the scales is very inaccurate and just unhelpfully from a motivational point of view.

https://www.myfitnesspal.com/account/diary_settings Rather than snacks, I would suggest multiple small meals throughout the day. I name mine 1-6 and also show where my pre and post-workout meals would be.

You absolutely can do that. It's called progressive overload. My advice would be to get yourself a logbook (this can be a plain notebook) plan out your workouts and log the weight and reps each week. Once you have exceeded a rep range 10-12 (you manage to do 13-14 with that weight) then up the weight and just repeat that.…

I think as other members have said above sit him down and tell him that this means a lot to you and how you feel about yourself, this isnt a vanity thing it feeling confident in yourself and it's not going to change who you are and how you feel about him. [Edited by MFP Staff]

Firstly well done on making the step. I would say take each day at a time, Plan and prep your meals Plan your workouts and do them the same day and time of day each time. If you make a mistake forgive yourself (you're only human) and get straight back on track. Tick those boxes each day and you will get these. [Edited by…

Go for some good quality Tupperware boxes. I find the cheaper one doesn't keep food too fresh and doesn't stand the test of time. I would prep every few days, some people do a week but by the last day the food is worthy of the bin haha. Buy in bulk and freeze, this stops you from getting caught out and saves money. [Edited…

The MFP calculator is VERY VERY inaccurate. First of all, work out your BMR then you want to take the BMR and x by (depending on how much you train per week): 1-3 session a week - BMRx 1.375 4-5 sessions a week -BMR x 1.55 5-6 sessions a week BMR x1.725 This will give you your maintenance calories. I personally would then…

Proat are amazing! The best method is 1min in the microwave, add the protein powder, and then 30 more seconds. I think if you're adding protein then the milk isn't necessary, opt for water instead.

The Trainedby JP veggie protein is great! And a very reputable company! [Edited by MFP Staff]

Amazing! Killing that bikini pose! ;)

It sounds like you may be eating too little. That does not sound like a lot at all. I would most certainly be looking at your daily activity and consider upping your calorie intake. [Edited by MFP Staff]

We too I hate the stuff. [Edited by MFP Staff]

Try some Kwan Loong Oil on the area and most certainly have a break from running. Maybe try some other form of cardio. Many people take up running because of the accessibility but unestimated the impact it has on the body. [Edited by MFP Staff]
