Not really, depends on the type of weight training. There are multiple studies that show appropriate weight training for weight loss burns more calories and is more effective than the same amount and intensity of Cardio. There is more 'after burn' Also the more muscle you have the more calories you burn throughout the day.

0.4 lbs off in the last week, making a total of 16.3 lbs off for the challenge, loss slowing right down. Every little bit is a bonus an a extra little buffer to help not worry about a few extra calories over the holiday period. Still plan to be good over Christmas but not strict... enjoy in moderation Goal 16lbs 16.3 lbs…

:smile: Well got to a stone today and only 0.2 lbs off my Xmas goal. Will just have to make sure I don't put any back on before then. :smile: Goal 16lbs 15.8 lbs lost 0.2lb to go to XMAS Eve Goal

Hi, - Keep you total Carbs under 40 grams a day. - Net carbs* less than 30g (net Carbs = Total Carbs - Fiber) *Note on UK packaging the fiber is already subtracted from the carbs shown on the label so its only fresh food / none labelled foods you subtract the fiber from the total carb to get net carbs. If a US food label…

As I stayed the same mid week I decided on an interim weigh & update to see a hopeful improvement [lose] and keep the motivation going. 0.3 lb off since mid week. :smile: Goal 16lbs 13 lbs lost [1 lb to go to 14lb] 3lb to go to XMAS Eve Goal

Well backed studies... https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3756673/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25311083 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17653067. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23456944

feel free to miss quote and misunderstand me... What I posted is a fact. See above.

Incorrect, it does matter when we eat if we want to optomise weight lose, well being, physical performance etc. There are multiple scientific papers that prove this to be the case. The only thing that is a myth is you can't lose weight if you eat just before sleep. When we eat it affects your blood, liver and muscle…

Wow, its not a simple as people are making out, as with most things people say are myths there is some truth in it. i.e The advice not to eat too much late in the evenings before sleep. The only thing that really is a myth is the hard and fast 6 pm it depends on your daily routine and the combination of macros (Fat,…

Stayed the same in the last week. Happy, as was away for the weekend and don't have any Christmas / holiday season events not until the week before Xmas. Thinking about change the goal to an extra 2 lbs off making the new goal 16lbs Goal 14lbs 11.7 lbs lost 2.3 lbs to go

Seen this late but fits well with my goal to get to 68kg by Christmas. I restarted with new focus on Friday 21st of October after putting nearly 2 stone on over the summer. On the Friday 21st October I was 167.8 lb (76.1 kgs, maybe a bit of water retention on this weigh.) Going on the first Monday 24th October, after my…

Energy good, feeling great, lets do this. :-)

Although it takes about 2 hours to deplete the glycogen stored in your liver and muscles, so it doesn't make much difference, unless you also worked out after dinner and before breakfast or are doing a very long CV session I train every morning before breakfast but that is more a time restraint and comfort thing (its hard…

No. Do worry it won't drop anyway near that low (28bpm) even if you loose more weight and become extremely fit, and to be fair its not a problem if it did as long as your blood pressure is OK. I have a background of a life time of power and endurance sports and my resting HR is 36 bpm, my blood pressure is normal and my…

Agree with the first bit having to correct nearly every entry, but I find most people think Salt = Sodium and find people correctly change to mg but don't divide by 2.5 first this has result in some days showing more sodium intake than in reality if not corrected As you say: To convert grams of salt to milligrams of…
