  • I was using the long bar (I don't know the technical term as only just started out!) But if they are any diagram links or anything that shows me where best to put my hands to improve my form that would be so appreciated!!

  • drinking has been the main reason my weight has gone back up since going back to uni in september, although i had lost over a stone in 3 months in the summer. If it really is a one off then drink what ever you want, sure u may get a hangover but myfitnesspal is about changing your lifestyle not dieting so if you like…
  • everything in moderation!! if you cut things out completely it will make you more likely to make you binge, so i still have mcdonalds on a regular basis having chicken nuggets with fries or just a burger with a large drink this is about life style change not dieting!!!
  • i rarely used to eat breakfast as i have always avoided cereal. But i have found that a piece of bacon and a poached egg is always filling. I would agree with other people that protein is the way to go and is a lot healthier than people think if you cook it the right way e.i. grilling the bacon instead of frying, plain…
  • i started yesterday and trust me you will feel sore tomoro but u just need to push thru it, ive seen alot of success stories on here where they have used the 30 day shred and it totally looks worth it!!! it may help if u do a few stretches and massage the sore areas just before you go to bed too Good luck!!!
  • i chose my goal weight because its in the middle of the healthy BMI for my weight and because i want to stay curvy 11 stone for my height will be around a size 10 as i don't want to be stick thin!!
  • You should definitely try out the Zumba 20 minute express, the routines are easy, fun and burn of a good amount of calories!! But i always think variation is the key so switch it up with different exercise videos as otherwise you will find them less motivating!
  • Snoop Dogg vs. David Guetta - Sweat Flo Rider - Lips like Sugar *****cat Dolls - Buttons and Beep
  • go back to your doctor ASAP!!! on any kind of contraception if you bleed for more than 10 days continually you need to go back as it could indicate a bigger health problem!
  • its not bad for you per se its just that there is a large amount of cholosterol in the yolk so some people choose not to eat it.
  • Hey there! I have swapped cows milk for lactofree milk which can be bought cheaply at most supermarkets simply because you are correct, less calories and fat. BUT, make sure you get a good brand so you still get a good amount of calcuim. Also, not sure about the not drinking cows milk thing but it sounds crazy enough to be…
  • Thank you so much for posting your progress its given me a proper boost to think that if someone can lose a whole person in weight i can get to my goal weight too!! Thank you for being such an inspiration!!
  • Try buying packet sauces such as casserole mixes etc. these mostly mean you put whatever meat/vegetables into a roasting tin cover with the packet sauce and water and cook for a while!! These can be great tasting and economical when having to cook for your family. Or why not try buying ready made sauces such as bolognaise…
  • I actually found that i saved a bucket load of calories by switching to Quorn meat some of the time (veggie meat). For example when it comes to Quorn mince vs. lean beef mince you save 500 calories just by choosing the vegetarian option!! It doesn't even mean you have to give up meat entirely but it means on days were you…
  • You can always buy cheap gym equipment second hand off craigs list if your in the USA or Gumtree if your in the UK. Also, there are some great free websites with full length exercise videos that include aerobics, zumba, dancercise and many more, just type free fitness videos into google and your away!!
  • At the end of the day you need to be getting at least 2 litres of water into your system, more if you are doing a lot of exercise. I recommend low calorie squash, i know you may not want the extra calories but if you think about it its better than drinking no water at all because this will just hamper you weight loss.…
  • I agree with the above, you seem to be eating very healthily but i think portion size might be your problem. For example you state 200g worth of wholemeal pasta, this seems like exactly how much i would normally have eaten but in actual fact 90g is the recommended amount for a single meal on most pasta packets. When i…
