have you ever used a cross trainer or running machine? they tell you how many calories youve burned. about half an hour easy going on the cross trainer does 100 calories. then you get someperspective of what the number actually mean in terms of energy used. Youve got to eat less calories than you use up to loose weight!
you can google "how many calories in a..." thats how I learned that avocados are more calories than a marsbar
Its harder with home cooked foods, Im the same, got no idea what is in my dinners, so I count through the day and just try and make sure my dinner is full of veg/salad and low in carbs (carbs have a lot more calories than veg)
know the feeling! Morgans in bed, just fed him and he went back to sleep. Im off to bed now. Gonna weigh in in the morning but we're off out to baby massage first thing so might not get to post til Im home at lunchtime. Good luck tomorrow hun!!!
i've missed this some how! can i join in? i want to lose 10lb by new year, but for xmas would be great! AFs here atm tho and i'm attempting giving up smoking AGAIN so i can see it being a disaster! want to go from 142lb, which is 10st2 (i think!) to 132, which will take me into normal BMI aswell! going to be following slimming world (loosely) and wii fitting
How many calories have you been having? I found wen I didn't eat enough I either maintained or gained! I swear by slimming world now cos you can eat whet you like, it's just got to be balanced out right! Is AF due?
AF due a week tomorrow. :/ how can anyone gain that much weight in 3 days. youd have to live off mc donalds. ive dramatically reduced my daily calorie intake. ive been hungry for 3 days. gutted. gonna stick at it tho, hopefully it will all come off in 1 go!
Tiny I don't know if it would kick in so fast but on crash diets your body sometimes goes into starvation mode because it doesn't know when the next meal will be. I dunno. And keep drinking!! Water is calorie free, and fluid retention is a right bugger! My sister is a dietitian, I wish she would come and do my shopping and cook all my meals for me!!
