And 7.5 between my waist and Hips, from what I've read apples are pretty straight up and down with a…

Sever period pain - exercise NOT helping!
I can hardly walk :( I'm on the pill but skipped my period recently (which have been told by doctors is safe to do so don't give me crap about it - it's a controversial topic and both sides have fair points but this post isn't about that) Just going to the shops last night felt impossible, tried to push through the pain…

Fat Total vs Saturated Fat vs Mono Fat
Can someone please help me here. I'm going with 40% Carbs, 30% Fat and 30% Protein. But my Fat levels are too high but it's Monounsaturated Fats not Saturated Fat. The Mono fat is somewhat high because I eat avocado but Mono Fats are good for you for weight loss and in general.. So should I change my 30% Fat to something…

FitBit or BodyFit Media?
Which is the best one to buy? I've noticed with the BFM you have to be subscribed to the website so it's ongoing payments. So I'm leaning towards the FitBit more. Thoughts?

Partner has injured his knee..
So my partner has joined the gym with me but has only been able to go for one week because he hurt his knee on one of the machines (we assume the rowing machine because it's the muscles behind his knee, the one's he would use to pull himself back in) he's very fit and loves exercise so it's not an excuse to not go to the…

PEOPLE WHO UNDERSTAND BMR AND CAL DEFICITS ETC!
Copying this from another post of mine because I want more feedback. "Basically, I eat 1500 cals a day at the moment and haven't been doing any exercise other than walk to work, walk around work and walk home. So no "extra" exercise. 1500 is maintaining me, I am not losing nor gaining. I'm stuck on 79.7kgs. The main reason…

To lose one kilo a week burn 7709cals?
Okay, just wondering... It is said that to burn a kilo of fat you need to burn 7709 calories. So if I burnt 7709cals in a week, would that equal to one kg of fat loss a week? IF I somehow managed to get my lazy bum off the couch and did that many in a week it calculates to 1101 a day. If my BMR is 1313 and I want to aim to…

Negative Calorie Foods
Been looking into the food plan they give overweight patients to help them lose weight before surgery. It mainly consists of soups etc that burn more calories digesting the food then the actual food itself. So ultimately you'll lose weight but you're still eating. Anybody know of some goods recipes to follow?
