You might be doing this already but you need to increase protein and eat regularly. Change up what you're currently doing if you can, I think a jolt to the system gets metabolism going again. I start with aloe vera juice mixed with warm water (great to keep you regular). About half hour later have a protein shake or a high protein breakfast (turkey rashers/eggs). Don't go over 3 hours without eating. I usually have greek yogurt and berries as mid morning snack. Have salad with protein (tuna/chicken/turkey/egg) for lunch. Another snack mid afternoon, maybe apple and peanut butter or a couple of babybels. Then I have dinner with at least 25g protein and I usually have a carb of some sort with dinner. Just one more small snack around 7.30pm, usually a protein bar with 10g protein, just the supermarket ones, don't eat later than that. This will definitely get the weight moving for you. The protein boosts your metabolism and eating regularly is key. Hope this helps
to be honest, although I’ve been losing weight, my diet is very carb heavy and my protein intake definitely could be much better! I’ve bought some protein shake stuff a few days ago, so I’ll make sure I use that, and I definitely need to incorporate more protein into my main meals for sure!You might be doing this already but you need to increase protein and eat regularly.

thanks for the help
Its not too difficult to up your protein even without shake, I buy the big tubs of fat free greek yougurt and flavour it with Flavdrops from Myprotein, I usually have berries or fruit of some sort and even a bit of high protein granola from Aldi is lovely. That would give you 20g of protein. Turkey rashers are brilliant, they're 6g protein each. Eggs again are at least 6g protein. Peanut butter with apple or ryvita/corncakes. I love the alpen protein bars they're 10g protein and although laden with bad stuff as well at least if you're making a bad decision it has 10g protein! Eating more protein changes your shape too, even if the scales don't move much, make sure to measure yourself.
currently on my holidays and living my best foodie life lol

Lost 1lb this week so in a new stone zone.
Those who are calorie counting how often do you recalculate your calories? I read for every stone you lose so I need to do mine but wondering what everyone else does?

i always find summer the hardest, especially now the world is opening up again and everyone wants to go out to eat all the time.
Had this for dinner yesterday, would really recommend! https://www.mindfulchef.com/healthy-recipes/turkey-biriyani (in place of the spice mix I used tikka paste, and 1/4 tsp of garam masala, turmeric, ground coriander and cumin, curry powder and chilli powder)
Im slowly moving down on the scales but still have three pounds until my previous lowest weight (and then 9 more til my supposed target). I’m not exercising every day (or even reaching my step count), just trying to get through my runs. One more to go until I finish C25k, all being well
Trying not to be as obsessive as I have been previously, with a view to imagining what maintenance will be like

I just did a youtube leg exercise video because I have done nothing for months and have put on a stone recently. I am so unfit because after like 5 squats my legs are on fire! I really dislike getting hot and bothered with these sorts of exercises. I need to break out of this mindset.
Don't beat yourself up! You did brilliantly to finish itJust did a 30 minute strength workout and finished it in tears it was so hard
I hate getting hot too. I started to try and exercise in front of a fan which helped hugely.
Good morning all. Week 31: -3.5 
. So i’ve lost what I put on in my epic week off plus another 1.75lb. Back on track. Hope everyone is doing ok, whether you’re in the zone or taking time out.

Wow 1.8lb loss for me! Not sure how as it was mine and BFs bdays last week, maybe I kick started my metabolism 
3.4lbs to go!
3.4lbs to go!
I've been telling myself every day I'll get back on track .... it has not happened I'm on holiday next week and dreading what the scales are gonna say after 
I'm on holiday next week and dreading what the scales are gonna say after After not losing weight for over a month, I finally lost a pound! Which isn’t much, but it feels like I’m finally getting back on track.
And that extra pound weight loss means that I’m now the lowest weight I’ve been since I was 21 (I’m 28 now).
I feel like my motivation is finally coming back.

I lost 3lb this week. 
We’re going to Wales for the week today and it’s going to be pretty impossible to track my food intake (other people preparing, etc) so I’m just going to try and be mindful and also rack up the steps on my Apple Watch. Hopefully that minimises potential damage!
