  • Hello congratulations on the wedding... how exciting. It seems to me that your not eating enough. if your burning 1000 calories and only eating 1200 - your body will go into starvation mode and you wont loose any weight. I would suggest you need to eat your exercise calories to help you loose the weight you want to and it…

  • Hello, I noticed that your not drinking very much water - you should definitely up that amount to 8 for a start.

  • hi i think most indian places (the ones i go to do) have lots of healthy-ish side dishes like sag aloo, sag paneer and things with aubergine or orka in them. normally in a tomato based sauce as well so i think they could be worth trying. when i go i tend to have a side dish instead of rice and have a little bit of naan as…

  • maybe you could check the weight of the packet. Then judging by the weight separate the whole pasta packet into equal measures and then you will be able to roughly judge it. not sure if i have explained correctly. i have just got back from the gym and i feel dizzy! hope that helps a little :). but then if you have already…
