Aye up north lass!:)

I was feeling exactly like that, where Shred did not appear to be doing anything (currently on L2D6) on top of the usual cardio work I do (running or gym in conjunction with or on alternate days to Shred)- I even put on weight and inches last week! However, have lost half an inch in some places now and weight going back…

Thanks for your insights y'all! Really helpful! :)

Gotta be careful you're not putting your body on starvation mode! I've been struggling on 1200 when not exercising and feeling tired, aggitated and hungry! So I've decided to make the weight loss per week less so I can eat a couple of cals more a day. . . I figured this is a lifestyle change so can be a little bit more…

Hi, I haven't joinned but when I looked round they were defo the most expensive (compared to the other gyms). Good range of equipment and classes though. Think they can do discounted rates for couples, OAPs but not sure about students. . . oh but they can do some special offers if you speak to an adviser there!

Thanks everyone, this has really motivated me to get a wider spread of (good) food into my diet and to really watch what I eat! Support is much appreciated! :happy:

They can't be a true friend if they aren't happy for you and feel insecure as a result of your sucess!

I'm feelign the hunger now and wondering if I should do the same and up my intake! Were you on 1200?

Hey happy to suport and yes you can defo do it! Have added you :)

Hi, same as you I didn't realise how mant cals were in certain foods - even 'healthy' stuff! But with regards to chocolate I try to buy dark/ high cocoa level bars as a little is enough, or if my sweet tooth kicks in I buy mini bars as they are usually half the cal. Soem chocs like kit kats are also quite low in cals. Hope…

Thanks everyone! Really good advice on here, will keep tracking but put my goal to maintence!

Hi, I'm new too! Feel free to add me!

I've started to use mouth wash after my meals to resist snacking!

Hi, I've sent you the request! I could do with some motivating too!

I really want to try Zumba too, but not sure how much it differs from the other dance based classes in the gym?

Hey everyone, thanks for your comments and insights! I'll stick to the running! :)

Hi, I used to go spinning all the time. In the classes I've been to, you do a combination of sitting, standing on the 'bike', uphill and sprint work as well as strength trainning. You can work as hard as you like, which is good if you haven't got the energy and want to take it easy!

Hi, I'm new on here and also have 1200 a day allowence. So far I've had to exercise every day to keep within/below my target- but don't want to be working out everyday! I only want to lose a coupe of pounds! Help!!
