Get a personal training session at the gym, tell the trainer exactly what you would like to learn and what direction you would like to go in. ALso ive found magazines like fitness fx and Oxygen to be useful in racking up different circuits. I then use an app to create workouts on my phone so I dont need to carry the mag…

I remember a health professional saying that its more the amount of calories/food over a 24hr period with exercise not so much when. Although saying that eating something high in sugar before bed isnt going to do you any good. Eating at 6 and then bed at 11:40 well that means you haven't eaten for 5hrs no wonder your…

you have a similar shape to me but im 5'6 and 130. Try aiming for muscle definition and fitness and youll be surprised at where you'll strengthen and tone. Then its not so much about getting smaller but being healthier. Good luck finding the new you although the old one is looking good too!

I went for a run with my sister and we were able to talk the whole way (breathlessly but still understandable) and we were able to run for 7k easily! (we are at the end of the C25K program. Keep it slow and steady!

There are some great greek yoghurts that are high in protein I have started getting chobani, no fat low carb and super high in protein. Ive also been having a lot of cottage and ricotta cheeses and eggs to up my protein. I have the same calorie aim as you but 40% carbs and 30% protein and 30% fat. You could have some…

If you cut down your carbs ( I was averaging 55% carbs before switching to IIFYM) and up your good fats and protein, now my aims are 40% carb 30% fat and protein, its amazing how much you get to eat and how full you feel. You also get to use full fat dairy etc. I have been doing it for over a week now and while I haven't…

I have 150gr low fat cottage cheese, 50g greek vanilla yoghurt, 25g seed mix (sunflower and pepita seeds)and .5 cup frozen blueberries for brekkie. Im the same I feel hungry alot and this keeps me full and helps with my 40% carb 30% fat and protein aims. Eggs are really good as well. If you cut down your carbs ( I was…

Do you weigh your food? only asking as serving sizes are very small. I found that when I began to weigh my food I realised I was eating more than one serve at a time. Roasted pumpkin with a olive oil spray is still high (relatively) in calories when your eating 2 cups...yumm love roasted pumpkin!

Why don't you do resistance training outside? Run easy, walk fast or bike to a park and use the equipment to do circuits of abs, push ups, chin ups, triceps push ups etc. Your outside on your rest day but still working towards to bigger goal. There are a lot of diagrams, videos etc about using the equipment available to do…

We are always the last people to see change. You look great and I bet you felt a lot better wearing that dress for the second time. Have you asked others if they have seen a difference? Keep up the good work you've done so well to lose weight the first time and now again after a break! an inspiration for people who are…

Im teaching my dog to run beside me and my bike. I know you have a bad knee so cant jog, but teaching a dog to heel when walking or running is a must before moving onto a bike. You have to be able to trust in your ability to control him off the lead. In case you have to let go or to stop him from running in front of your…

Are you running flat out? Try intervals run for 1:30 walk for a minute or something similar it keeps your HR up for longer but wont kill you. A common way for people to build up to run longer distances.

Im right into the choc au lait drink. 45cals for a chocolate drink, better than Milo and youve got your chocolate hit without the added calls.

You would have to research which heart rate monitor you use and see if you can uncover it. Garmin have some really hard reviewers that get right into all the stats. It may be time to upgrade or can you borrow a friends and see if there are major discrepancies. If you eat back every single exercise calorie but it is over…

Nuts and avocados are so healthy for you, don't cut down on them instead build them into your plan. Keep a treat in your calories specifically for before bed. Then your not binging your following a plan! To get the benefits of raw you can aim for 80% and it still works. So even if you eat meat as long as your meal is 80%…

Have you ever looked into raw eating? I was a pretty fit vegetarian that swiched to the lifestyle over summer and I have learned recipes and nutritional information I have incorporated into my normal lifestyle. Its very easy to get stuck in the same cycle when your vegan/vegetarian because it feels like there are less…

Research what algorithm your HRM monitor uses. I have just started using a Garmin 210 and it uses one of the most accurate algorithms to assess calories burned only 7-10% buffer. 60 mins of heavy training while riding my horse and I burn 330 cals. Everyone is different but it sounds a little bit out ;) if you've been…
