I have quit drinking for 3 months now. Best thing I EVER did. I was drinking a bottle of wine almost every night, and one of the reasons I put on weight in the first place. I was also concerned about the habit I was forming and why I felt that I needed to drink that much all the time. I was also worried about the example I…

Def do not have money to burn! I am really after long term results, which is why I have approached my fitness in the way that I have. Slow but steady. I think I am just getting impatient with myself and the process.
-
Thank you. I think that's what I needed to hear. Time to just get back to it and refocus!
-
Nothing that stands out in my mind. Just the usual things most families deal with, money family stress.

I'm a mum - 14, 11, 4 , 1 - feel free to add me :)

Now it comes up at 1194 - so that would more closely match with MFP.
-
No I put my current weight at 71.5kg ... let me recalculate
-
Hmmm so maybe I need to find a happy medium ... Food for thought (pun intended) :)
-
I am currently 71.5kgs and would like to lose 15kgs
-
I put exercise level 3 times a week. I used this site: http://iifym.com/tdee-calculator/ If 1354 is the bare minimum then why does MFP tell me to eat 1200?
-
Thank you everyone, looks like I need to look into TDEE a bit more. Did a quick calculation and its saying: BMR: 1354 TDEE: 1862 So that means I should eat no more than the 1354 a day?

that towel ...

I am in my 3rd week of being booze free :) Normally a bottle a night of wine drinker and more on weekends! Feel free to add me as a friend, would love to hit the 12 month mark with no alcohol!

Interesting points made by all, worth me doing some more research. I have a skin condition that is affected by too much sodium but have never been given a mg amount to aim for or stay under. Sounds like a trip to the doctors to get some advise :)

Thank you AJ
-
Some great advise! So are you a nutritionist? You look bloody amazing!!!
-
Feel free to add me ... Looking for more friends and some motivation :)

Sorry I should have been clearer, she is a nutritionist. I already have a PT and he offers advise but not a set out meal plan. I would worry too that I would stick to it, or it would be time consuming to prepare. Thanks for all the feedback - will stick to watching my calories :)

Thank you everyone, sounds like a water issue. My husband has said that I have slimmed and toned a bit - and he is not one to hand out compliments :wink: It just doesn't seem to be reflecting on the scales. I will keep going :smile:
-
Thank you Snuggle - that gives me a few things to look at. Also wondering if too much protein could be an issue, I have been using some Cellucor Whey Shakes to get me through to meal etc. - would that be an issue?
-
Tha Thank you ... she is 4 now!
-
Thank you for the replies everyone :smile: I have been exercising for about 5 months, but only started to get serious the past month. I quit wine about 3 weeks ago, still have the odd beer if my calories limit allows. I bought a food scale 2 weeks ago to start weighing out my lunches. I lost nearly 1.5kgs in the first week…

This is my second day here, so I am at the very start of my journey. I am in Melbourne Victoria. Feel free to add me :)
