Does anyone do Callanetics?
I can't 'exercise' like I used to because I'm recovering from a herniated disc but I've read about Callanetics and want to give it a go. Is anyone else doing this and can give me any tips?

I'm thinking of going vegetarian
I want to at least try a month of being a veggie. I also want to give wheat a miss because it makes me feel like crap, itchy, tired and bloated. Can any vegetarians give me any tips? Will I feel any different? I don't want to go hungry either so what can I eat that will fill me up

Exercise experts please advise me!
I have been on here over 3 months now and MFP is a big part of my life. I was doing 30DS and then was doing Ripped in 30 when I herniated a disc. So for 3 weeks I was out of action completely, this was just before Xmas and now my arm/back is pretty much ok although still having some physio every few weeks because it's…

Anyone doing Jamie Easons Livefit at home?
I am interested in starting this at home as soon as I get the all clear for my slipped disc. I don't have gym membership and want to do this from home. Is anyone else doing it from home and what equipment did you have? Also how did you supplement the exercises that require gym equipment? I will just have weights/dumbbells

Is it true if you don't work out it all turns to flab so soo
I can't workout at the moment because I have got a deep root trapped nerve. My Physio strapped me up and won't touch it for now. The pain is unreal and I have to wait to see my GP till 3.40 today to get some stronger pain relief as normal painkillers aren't touching it. I know it's wrong but I miss my Ripped in 30 and am…

How do I track my body fat %?
Is this something I can calculate or do I need to go to a gym and get it measured?
-
Stupid question time -Stones and lbs
I started this at 10.1 stone. I am in Uk so we tend to measure in stones. There are 14 lbs in a stone. So currently measuring at 9 stone 8lbs. Which I work out to be 134lbs But when I put it in an online calculator it brings it out at 137 lbs. How? What am I missing?

What could be happening?
Ok so I've been at this a month, done 30 Day Shred every day with no breaks. Sometimes walk if I get the chance for an hour or so. I watch what I eat and I eat back my exercise calories. At first I lost 5lbs (water weight and was also TOM) and then 1lb the week after. I have toned up but still have a way to go. I drink…

Empty stomach for workouts or not?
I started doing my exercise on an empty stomach and then read we should eat carbs before. So I have a couple of oatcakes before I exercise and a protein shake after Then I read we should exercise on an empty stomach or I won't lose weight and my weight has stalled. Which is right? I'm confused!!

What is the optimum Carb/Protein/Fat ratio
I am losing weight (a stone to go) and toning up. I am 5ft 6 and currently 135lbs. What is the optimum % of carbs/protein and fat to help me get there? I try and eat as clean as possible but seem to go over sometimes on my fats and carbs.
-
Seem to keep going over on carbs
Aside from last night when we had Fajitas I have been steering clear of bread etc because it makes me bloated and tired but I find carbs are in so many things and I keep going over on them. Can anyone have a peek at my diary and tell me is this going to stall me?
-
Can anyone please look at my food diary
Am doing 30DS and it is going well BUT I am struggling with my food. I am trying to eat really healthily but I know I'm not eating enough veg. But it is hard to find things to eat that use up my exercise calories and don't exceed carbs and fat but contain enough calories. Some evenings I am just not hungry but still have X…

Day 1 thought I ate healthy but gone over on my fats!
I went over on protein earlier and posted about it and lots of people said protein allowances were low on this site so I altered it a little. Anyway now I have gone over on my fat and I know that can't be good! Please can you have a look and tell me where I am going wrong!

For those doing or who have done 30 Day Shred
Is it possible to just do 30DS once a day and still get good results or do I need to be doing additional exercise too? Any advice gratefully received! :)
