Halfway to my goal! 65kg-57kg, another 7kg to go!
http://imgur.com/z7xgf8U Female, 21, 5'3 for reference. The first pic was taken in the autumn of 2011. I was doing some amateur 'modelling' (if you could call it that..). I thought I would love to get into people photography (when I was interested at that stage), so I worked with some photogs. I got free photos and…

How many calories should I be eating? Mental block...
Ok I am REALLY confused folks... I have no idea how many calories to eat. Currently I am eating between 900-1300 (I KNOW, I know!), but my TDEE is 2249. There is this mental block in my head that tells me anything over 1200 is overeating and I'm fine if I eat just under 1000 calories. It is not healthy, but I don't want my…

Looking for a cheap yet tasty protein powder....
I want to invest in a decent protein powder that tastes nice as well. Sounds simple enough, right? My budget isn't big though - I can spare about £30. And I prefer flavours like vanilla, cookie dough/creme, etc. Nothing chocolatey or fruity! I want to drink one after my workouts - and I would rather it wasn't high in fat…

On a ketogenic diet, want to start eating carbs again...
How would I go about introducing carbs into my diet again without bloating up like a whale from all the water weight? I'm assuming it has to be done slowly, first introducing complex carbs such as fruits in small quantities etc before progressing onto cereal. Thanks in advance for any advice!

Question about weightlifting and results
How long will it take to show results from weightlifting exercises? I plan on doing 2-3 days a week of including weights into my gym routine (currently going 4 times a week) and doing an hour of weight exercises (I've been taught by someone how to do them properly already so I know my technique is good). I'll be doing a…

2/3 of the way to my goal!
I've so far lost 20lbs - 1 and a half inches from my thighs, 2 inches from my waist and three from my hips. This dress used to be tight on me (I haven't gotten any before photos in it because I hated the way it looked on me) Et voila - now it's my favourite dress!…

Inch-gain but lost some lbs... But new dress is making me fe
So my mother the other day told me to 'stop getting fatter'. Which upset me, quite naturally. Once I was back at uni, I retook my measurements. I found I gained a lot of inches, BUT I had lost 3 lbs. Which actually makes no sense, unless I took into account water retention. Which is possible because in India, my feet and…

To introduce myself...
My name is Neha (Pronounced Nay-ha). I am 19 years old (I will be 20 in June). Currently I am a second year university student who will be applying to med school this September. I want to lose weight because I have been battling self esteem for a long, long time. And it's gotten to the point where I do not like looking…
