Holiday weight being stubborn
Hello there! I read a lot of holiday topics on these forums. The common idea seems to be that after a week or two of overeating, any weight gain should come off within a week or so, seeing that it will be bloating, extra food and water. Fair enough. Thing is, this was not the case for me. I went on a two week holiday, and…

Constipated?
Hey guys, Maybe a very odd first post, but I just have to ask this. Surely some of you have had the same problem. I'm not trying to lose weight as I'm already borderline underweight, but I am watching what I'm eating as I'm trying to stay lean. In order to do so, I eat on average 1600 kcal per day. I have been doing this…
