Thank you so much everyone, think i will give it a bash tomorrow on an empty stomach and see how i go. I have also read about it burning more fat so fingers crossed! I tried the 30 day shred once before but only got to day 12 so i'm trying to get into more of a routine to help me get into it! @ilovegrove - i dont need to…

So what do we do to let everyone know how its going? Ive never joined a challenge before but i'm really looking forward to this one x

I'm in, i have started this before but only lasted 12 days, this time i will try and make it to the 30 days. My weight loss is really slow at the minute so hopefully this will bring it along!

What about a piece of dry toast? I usually try that when i've been sick. Stay away from dairy until your a bit better. Hope you feel better soon x

Its easily done, i just try to start fresh the next day and forget about it. I think as long as you keep trying then you are not a failure. Feel free to add me and we can encourage each other, MFP is defo the best way to keep track of your calories and hopefully start a healthier lifestyle. Ive been on here just over 2…

I'll maybe take a look at calorie cycling, thank you!

I wasn't working out at all before, i was recovering from a back injury so only just started again in the last 3 weeks. Could this maybe be why?

You don't think that if i up my calories to 1300 or 1350 i will gain? I know its silly but i'm frightened to eat more encase i gain! I guess i could give it a try for a week and see what happens. Thank you for your advice.

They won't put you any lower than 1200 as that is what is seen as still healthy, i'm on 1220 a day but i dont have too much to loose now! Good luck!

Hello, welcome to MPF! Whats your calorie goal per day? I thought i would be hungry all the time but if you make sure you are still eating decent meals i find it helps. You can have a look at my diary if you want, don't judge though lol! xx

That sounds really similar to mine, i weigh 136 and have a desk job, my calorie allowance in 1220 a day. I usually eat back all my exercise calories as i would be quite hungry if i didn't. I just want to lose around 10 pounds (i have a really small build). I have been doing this for a week and have lost 1 pound so i'm…

I have only been doing this for a week but i have read that it's best to eat back the calories you burn off when exercising. Thats what i did last week and i successfully managed to lose 1 pound (my goal per week). My limit is 1220 calories per day and i love it when i exercise cause i get more freedom with what i eat!…

Dont worry about it, i have had days when i have overeaten. Why dont you just do some extra exercise today and then forget about yesterday? I tend to go exercise if i have gone over with my calories and i think it works. Good luck and keep going at it, Hollie x

Hello, ive been doing this for 7 days now and im loving it so far. I tried the south beach diet before and felt so restricted - this is great though cause i can still eat all the things i like but now i know when i can or cant have that little extra. I am only on 1220 calories a day so i exercise to give myself more. Good…
