Quest Protein Bars
I know this topic will have been done to death but what is everyone's favourite flavour quest bar? I'm running a bit low at the moment and I'm looking to order a new box but I'm not sure what to go for. I wanna try something new. I've only tried 3 - chocolate peanut butter and wasn't keen, I love cookies and creme and…

Lent
Does anyone here give up anything food/drink related for lent? I'm not particularly religious but last year I gave up chocolate. I might try it again this year since my sweet tooth seems to be out of control recently!

HIIT Treadmill
I thought I'd give it a go for the first time today so I set the speed at 12.5 and did 1 minute sprinting then 30 seconds rest by jumping on the side of the treadmill repeating this for 20mins. How does everyone else do it? I've been reading that it might be better the alternate the sprinting with walking rather than…

Veggie based juices/smoothies
Hey guys! I went through a phase of having a smoothie every morning for breakfast and I've just started to get back into it, only I'm reading that they might actually be bad for you due to the sugar content.. eg. my smoothie for breakfast tomorrow is banana strawberry and frozen mango blended with water. Can this really be…

Liquid sloshing around in belly
When I contract my stomach muscles I can usually hear liquid sloshing around in my stomach quite loudly! Does anyone else experience this? I don't feel like I consume liquid excessively/am dehydrated

Looking for friends :)
Hey, I'm 24 years old, 5'2 from the UK and I'm looking for friends on this site. I'm trying to be more consistent with my logging and am hoping having friends will help. I have a massive weakness for chocolate and wine which is definitely my downfall! My Calorie goal is 1200 on weekdays and a little more on weekends and…

Looking for friends!
Hey all :) I haven't exactly just started but as of last week I have a whole new outlook. I've been losing and gaining the same 10lbs for the last 6 months due to eating healthily through the week followed by over indulgent weekends. I've decided to be strict and start logging everything which will hopefully lead to me…

Protein Powder
I'm from the UK and I'm looking for a good protein powder in terms of cals and cost? I'd prefer unflavoured so I can add it to smoothies etc.

Smoothies
Just invested in a blender! What are your favourite smoothie recipes?
-
Caffeine
I drink a lot of black coffee. Does caffeine consumption have any affect on weight loss?
-
Sugar!
Ever since I cut alcohol out of my diet completely (a couple of glasses of wine a night) I'm finding myself craving chocolate and other sweet foods I never have before. Has anyone else found this?

1000 calorie diet
If I eat 1000cals for 5 days a week and then for 2 I average around 2000cals would I still be losing weight? I exercise 5 days a week for an hour. I have been eating 1300 cals a day on the five days but with going way over maintenance twice a week at 2000 it's damaging all my progress. The last time I can remember getting…

Question
I've already hit my protein macros for the day and I fancy something sweet. Would it still be a better option to have a Quest bar rather than a cookie for example? Or would it not matter as long as I'm with my calories?
-
Calories burned
I've just invested in a HRM as I know the readings the machines give you for calories burned are inaccurate as they don't take into consideration your weight and height. I used it for the first time today doing an hour of cardio (stairmaster, bike, rower and treadmill) The machines estimated I burned 430cals and my hrm…
-
Wine and weight loss!
This question has probably been asked a million times before but will drinking wine massively hinder my progress? I average around 2 glasses a night a few times a week and measure these out at 150ml each.. myfitnesspal estimates this at 240cals and I nearly always fit it into my calorie allowance. My goal is 1200 cals a…

So confused!
Over month ago I was on quite a strict diet consuming about 1200calories a day and going to the gym every day for at least an hour. During this time I lost almost no weight and gained if anything. Then I went on holiday for a week and ate/drank whatever I wanted. Since I’ve got back over the past few weeks I’ve been more…

Yoga
I'm pretty clueless when it comes to exercise but I've only recently started going to classes at the gym. So far Metafit is my favourite as it only lasts 30 minutes and I really feel the effects. I was looking at other classes to mix it up a bit and I'm thinking of trying yoga. Does anyone incorporate it as part of their…
-
Metafit
Just signed up for my very first Metafit class tonight.. I've looked on youtube for a few videos so I have idea what to expect. I'm quite unfit so I think I'll find it quite hard! Anyone do this class and get good results?
-
Weight fluctuations
I invested in a scale today. I weighed in at the gym (before any exercise) and I was 113lbs. After my dinner I set up my new scale at home and decided to test it out and it read 118lbs, which I'm guessing will be because of my food and drink consumption. But it normal to fluctuate 5lbs throughout the course of a day after…

Stomach problem area. Advice?
Hi everyone. I've lost weight slowly probably over a period of 2 years going from 140lbs to 111lbs (I'm 5'2) I've only started exercising over the past few months, doing cardio around 5 times a week for an hour at a time. I've added some situps and some ab exercises but this doesn't seem to be making any difference. My…
