Good luck girls works fab for me,what i dont do though is if i burn off say 348 cals doing a 45min zumba session it puts it back onto your cal count so i just remember that once i get down to that not to eat anymore i dont see the point in burning it off to eat it again also keep an eye on the portion size say if u add a tin of tuna it will count the full tin so if your only having half make sure u change it to half a tin and little things u might not think of like marg/butter on bread.if u can stomach it have the hovis nimble bread i really like it and its only 51cals a slice.funny how it adds up.i have porridge for brekkie which is 113 cals

Also just to add for women its 2000 cals a day normally and men 2500 incase u wasnt sure or didnt know

Well it tells me I have had 1176 cals so far today but burned off 197 walking home. Fingers crossed I will remember to use it.

I eat pretty healthily (I think) but just bother with calorie counting normally. My main problems is when I snack as once I start I don't stop! lol.

Not sure tomorrow will go well as I am going out for dinner with FIL to be and OH. This normally means a curry. Yummy but not healthy.

Morning

I get to try my dress on again in about 40 minutes :j. I am meeting a dress alteration person to find out how much it will cost. I hope it still fits, I have no idea what weight I was when I bought it last May and it fitted perfectly then

Ooohhhh how exciting Olokia. Hope all went well

I am still waiting for my dress to arrive in the shop Am pulling my hair out as they originally said November/December time and we are now nearing the end of Jan!!! It's less than 3 months till the wedding and I currently have no dress

That is a very generalised number though; a very useful starting point, but not actually that precise. For instance, if I ate 2000 calories a day I would put on weight; 1400-1500 is enough for me on a normal day - more if I do a lot of exercise. There are calculators online to work out how many calories a day are right for you.

i will join you ladies on here again once i have recovered after surgery and back at the gym. i know this shouldnt be a reason at all, but i am more determined now to look after myself when i recover and eat well and be in good shape to get ready for motherhood again!

Arrhh Rups we will be here whenever you are ready to come back. Don't put pressure on yourself to do things too quickly, just take your time to recover xx

Hi girls, I know I have dipped in and out of this thread like a yo-yo but with 6months to go im knuckling down! Been at the gym everyday for 2 weeks ( apart from last sat i went swimming ) and ive completely cut out alcohol... i know these can be part of a diet but no time for slow and steady! In the ideal world i would be 7st lighter to be at healthy weight but its unrealistic by the wedding so 2lb a week = 3st is my target. Well done to everyone else for keeping it up!

Morning ladies,

Hope everyone has a nice weekend Mine was nice and ok food wise. I am off doing a course for the next three days so won't be on here much/till the evenings (depending how much homework they give us!!).

Today's breakfast is porridge, got stuffed peppers and salad for lunch with an apple and some fruit flakes. Not sure about dinner yet.
