Firstly "fat turn into muscle" this is impossible, as fat and muscle are completely different things, you cant change them from one substance to the other. You can replace fat with muscle. Secondly, I have also heard this, however I think these is an easier way to burn up the food energy; do your weights first, this them…

Hello :) Im 5"1 and I also go to university so I know what you mean about fitting exercise in. Feel free to add me :)

Thank you, I wasn't trying to keep myself in any zones as I don't know what they are, all I know is yesterday I burnt 600 calories having a high HR so I was trying to do the same today.... I will just continue to work hard and ignore the fat burning part! Thanks :)

well it is more of an aerobic class, involving warm ups, sprinting, burpies, star jumps, bunny hops, sort of 'tag game', sparring, and general circuit training. rather than just punching... hmm its hard to find something that is accurate,

i am also interested in if i should do other activities while doing this dvd. also i wouldnt worry about bulking up, body builders spend along time, even years trying to bulk up, i dont think you will have a problem :)

to all asking how to log it its best to get a heart rate monitor i brought one from decathalon for £30! so hey are not expensive. i wore mine to boxing class and in an hour i burnt 600 calories, i plan to wear it when also doing the 30 day shred. im waiting for my dvd to arrive first. i shall post what my data is at the…

interesting. i think i will take off my bmr calories anyway to be on the safe side as i dont know how accurate my hrm is.

ive just had look through at your food diary there can be easy changes for example using skimmed milk instead of whole milk, maybe missing out the crisps and magnums during the week and only rewarding yourself them at the end of the week. also is it possible for you to exercise in the morning? as usually i find if i…

looking amazing! well done!

im sure you'll be able to do it! first of make your food diary public, as its easier for people to help you out as we can recomend good foods and maybe things to cut out :) also you have nearly 2 months as long as your strict and exercise you'll be fine just think how happy you'll be when your on your wedding day :)

hi :) im 20 and im sure that the dresses already look great!

I do jogging around my area for 20-30mins, then once i get home and can breath, i do 2 sets of ten push ups, reverse sits ups, lunges with weights, squats, hammer curls, bicep curls etc, just general weight/ muscles exercies

sorry i have nothing to Add but i think this is an interesting point!

ah thats guys, ive been looking at other calulaters and they mention this vox2 thing that apprently you should enter into your hrm to make it more accurate but my hrm does not allow this function. i just dont want to over estimate the calories i have burnt! but thatnyou for your responses :)

See I find that interesting where they say breakfast should be the biggest meal, as you burn more calories throughout the day. HOWEVER surely if your burning calories that day. it doesn't matter what meal is biggest as its calories in vs calories out right? Or is it the fact that you have a heavy breakfast as you have all…

What annoys me more is when im out and something isnt already on the system so i have to add quick calories, its not to bad though. I try to log everything i plan to eat for the day in the morning that way I wont eat stuff then log it (eventually making me go over) and then I like to see how many calories I have left for…

im 20 :) 5"1 female if thats any good?

Just make sure your nibbling the right things! like almonds, berries, carrot sticks etc. There is nothing wrong with treating yourself once a day. Perhaps treating yourself in another way such as new clothes, even better gym clothes will motivate you some more, you have done really well so far :) x

Its good to make kids aware that healthy food is good for them, but at such an age surely its the parents. Its the parents with the money, and who go food shopping. If there is unhealthy food in the house it is only the parents to blame the children (unless they are old enough for pocket money and can go to the shops…

Thank you for your advice, I will try drink some more water, and then try some crackers later. Thank you all for your advice

im sure I can fit soup in. I just hate this sore feeling. Haven't been able to exercise either :(

i agree soda is bad full stop. if your drinking 8 glasses of water a day you shouldnt really have time to drink coke. ive given it up basically due to not being able to fit it in with my water intake. there is far to much sugar in these drinks so if your serious about getting healthy then do with out.

also I weight only 116 pounds so its difficult to burn calories anyway (im only 5"1) so maybe if I have hand weights will this increase the calorie burn when doing step aerobics?

this is a great article, i will try to do abit of everything on the list!

in reply about the blister, i only got the blister since running 3.65 miles! and ive wore these trainers for 3 months :/ but yes i will look at perhaps gettings a new pair! thanks

i will try to jog for longer, but i have a serious blister from the arch in my trainers, so afterna while it gets to sore to carry on! i thought about washing the car to! thanks for the respones

From looking at what you have put into your food diary so far, you have been over your calories... its good that your exercising and eating back your calories, but your really shouldnt be going over that amount...

Hi, Well first of all I started off by standing by the window, placing my hands on the window seal, and move your legs back about half a meter, meter away. and just lean forward like your doing a push up. Go all the way down and push your self back. Keep going till your arms are burning, once that gets easy (like another…

I found that I did "girl ones" for ages, literally done them until I could do 20 ( also it doesnt matter what type you are doing as long as you have the correct pose, as there is nothing worse that trying to do a proper one and not doing it properly at all) Then one day I just found that I could do one! it was like…
