Ha ha :) I will blame it on the fact that I am sleep deprived Science student! : D

Would a gym instructor (I am in the University gym so it's not great, small facilities, etc) be able to put together a good plan? What a good plan would be for my goals (keep losing weight and 'toning'- I know, I hate that word too).

Ok guys, sorry about the fact that I did not explain myself properly in the first post. That is probably what lead to your condescending remarks and my resulting angry replies. Let's see if I can explain myself now. Difficult considering I didn't have much sleep last night (up until late thinking about molecules (Science…

What's wrong with Body Conditioning? Have you ever done it?

I know how to do 1st class Biochemistry, Cellular Biology and Genetics work, so yes I Google searches are kids play for me... Can also do serious academic journals!!!!

Yeah, I know all that guys... Why I am being taught how to such eggs?! I am JUST looking to find out how these classes have worked for people who have done them! Don't assume I know nothing just because I.posted here...

That's what I thought. However, these Let classes are very popular at my gym and I wondering if anyone here has done them and how well did they work :-)

You are so arrogant. Will you get out of my topic, please? I don't care about your bs and condescending ways. Who do you think you are? I am a Science University student, so I can read words you propably can't pronounce and understand what they mean.

Thank you for your random reply. If I had asked 'what is the best way of getting into weight training' then your reply could have been useful. However, I specifically asked about two classes. Thank you for your reply anyway.

Hi ladies. Thank you so much for your speedy replies. My weight loss goal has always been 0.5 kg per week. I don't think it can be any lower than that :-(

Your husband sounds like an idiot!

It's not a time competition, is an accuracy competition. Sorry, you lose.

You are using wine to comfort you due to your loneliness. I am not judging you, I had the same problem with chocolate and cakes... Get sugar to make me feel better about my depression... That was in the past, though. I am still tempted at times to take out on food when I am anxious but then I stop myself (most times) by…

Thanks :)

Thanks for your reply. I will be doing mat based Pilates. Is it good for toning and preventing injuries from other sports?

I know where Dublin is. I was not being judgemental. I guess it's a cultural difference.... But calling it 'medical recommendations' is stretching it a little.... I have never heard a doctor saying 'you should drink 11 units per week'... Anyway, I always find alcohol in England (and I have to mention England instead of…

I know where Ireland is. It must be a cultural thing then, because for me there's no need to have drinks to have a social life... I wasn't being judgemental, it's just that in some cultures social life doesn't have... for the lack of a better expression 'evolve around alcohol'.

It's unhealthy. In phase one you can't have fruit but you can have bacon, cheese and eggs everyday... It's terrible advice and just silly. The Akins diet would result in an unhealthy weight loss.... Whether we like it or not the way only way for healthy weight loss is using up more calories than we eat.

I totally agree with you! Three pints of anything alcoholic is too much. Why oh why in the UK everyone thinks it's normal?! If you go abroad (south Europe where I am from) people drink so much less! It's common for people to drink a glass of wine and then put the bottle away in the fridge. I have never seen an English…

Beer is diuretic what you losing is water... :)

If you really want those three pints twice a week the have them. But, and there is always a but, you must make up for it either by eating less or exercising a lot more- in order to still achieve a reasonable calorie goal, or at least to not go above it too much. However, you are looking for different perspectives (that's…
