Thank you for all your responses. I forgot to mention i’m a bit rubbish at calorie counting/ logging and only start up again when i feel really awful - i think i’ll have to start making it part of a daily routine. i maintained weight for almost 2 years +/-5lbs, but always managed to lose weight pretty much as quickly as i…

I weight myself daily (even after cheat meals/ days) and i also weigh my food as much as possible and scan packets etc except on cheat days. On cheat days my cheat food is pretty much all I eat besides a homemade smoothie I have for breakfast (Usually around 200 calls depending on the fruit and veg used) but then again I…

I went on the combined pill in september 2014 and by december 2014 I had gained about 20lbs.

thanks everybody for all your help and advice and stuff! and well done to to all of u who have completed it or even some of it, I'm inspired to complete it. I'm struggling at the moment but only one day 10 so hopefully I can improve! thank you all :)

thank you! didn't think of that- doh

okay. thanks. :) I used a BMR calculator online which told me my BMR was 1646 or something around that- is that an indicator of how many calories I should be eating?

I use a GARMIN one and my heart rate peaks at 170bpm but is around 130 for most of the workout am I'm 5 foot 6 inches and weigh 160.8 pounds. I do Zumba power- one of the older ones not sure if it's any different? :)

I use a heart rate monitor which tells me and I do Zumba power for an hour and a half :)
