Oversize

Determined

I have started the 12 week challenge from sunday 10 july. Wow!! Now in week2. I tried to still below 1200cals per day. Also doing 40mins exercise when am not working. On my working day I do over 1400 step per day. I work 4-5 days a week. Any suggestions?

Well done on your progress so far 😊 You are sounding very positive and motivated 😊

Just a thought, but 1200 doesn't sound like very many calories, how did you arrive at the figure? Did you know you can work out you BMR which will give you a suggested calorie range? I prefer to eat a little bit more so I don't feel deprived 😕

Good luck and very best wishes 😊

I should be having 1400cal a day accordingly to my BMI but I tried to still to 1200 in caseni cheat it will make up.

Good idea, I aim for 1200 weekdays so I can have a few treats at weekends, 😊 It's good to have a little flexibility

Thanks. You r a motivator

I thought you should be doing 10,000 steps a day

[IndigoBlue61 in reply to Kath61]

I think that is current government recommendations but if you are unused to exercise that is quite a lot . . . More important in my opinion to be moving more often and gradually build up number of steps 😊

[Jackiebeanca1 in reply to Kath61]

Sorry not 1400 steps, it is 14,000 most days

[Jackiebeanca1 in reply to Kath61]

I mean 14,000 per day 4-5 days a week

[Jackiebeanca1]

Not 1400 but 14,000 steps a day 4 to five days

[IndigoBlue61]

That's really good 😊 You will soon see those inches falling away
