I need some help.
So annoyed. My man had been doing so well with his diet, he’d lost 11lb in one week, and now he’s just sneakily given up. I found 2 empty skittles packets in his pockets, 2 giant bars of dairy milk, 2 empty packs of fresh cream doughnuts and eclairs in the bin, with an empty bottle of full fat Dr Pepper. And the thing is I…

Calling all Parkrunners!
I've just signed up to Parkrun and would love some new friends to support me and give advice etc. I'm in Durham so anyone who does Parkrun there (it's a long shot, I know!) would be great to meet! Currently I run between 4 and 5k about 3-4 times a week on a treadmill, but have never attempted it outside so I'm a little…

I really want to try the 30 day shred but i'm living in halls of residence in quite a small room. How much room do you need to move around to do this workout? I have enough to do lunges, sit ups, press ups etc. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

WeightWatchers and other low cal snacks
Does anyone have any opinion on these and their effect on dieting? I've just bought some WeightWatchers sultana and cinnamon cookies and some nairns dark chocolate chip oat biscuits as I love to have a biscuit with a cup of tea/ for a sweet treat. I know they're obviously better than snacking on 'real' biscuits, and not as…

Does anyone here know if calorie zigzagging works? If it does, and if it isn't harmful for you, would someone give me some advice on how to plan a week of zigzagging? Thanks.

In desperate need of advice.
Hi all. I seem to have reached a plateau and i'm not sure what to do. The facts are I go to the gym or run every day, doing 20-30 mins of cardio (usually HIIT). I also do 10-15 minutes of weights when I can get in to the gym. I'm on a diet of 1200 calories a day (though it's not really a diet for me, more a lifestyle as…
