No problem. Alfo start high in.cals then work down so your body doesn't freak out and hold onto everything.

I'm 27 and have a lot of stretched skin I'm so worried about the end result. I know our NHS offers surgery if you get to a BMI of 28 but I don't know what other requirements there are, for example I haven't been weighed at the doctors since I was 16, so would they want a starting point so they know I've lost the weight (as if the sight of my skin isnt enough!)
Otherwise how much am I looking at for surgery? I'm already having to fork out for fertility treatment!

I haven't looked to much into it yet as it's probably about 5 years down the line for me. I want to have another baby and such before I even think about that.
From what my Dr has told me is basically they put in a request for the surgery and then there is funding and your need is great enough you may get surgery. There is another area on the forum for this type of stuff there a couple girls on there who have talked about it.
The problem with getting it on the nhs is that just having a lot of skin isn't going to get you surgery. It has to be causing problems like infections where the skin is hanging and such.
I may be wroth a trip into you Dr just to get weighed and ask about how it all works.

If you minus 20% from 2036 then that should give you your daily calories to be eaten x I think .. It's what I do anyway x

I lost 2.4lbs since jan the 2nd
If you read the whole of this thread the lady that started it helps. She was the one that put me onto dan and his road map .. The link to his road map is on page 1 or 2 too ... It's where I got it from last night x
Good luck x
But do read the whole thread ..! She does say you may put a couple lbs on at the start .. Spesh if you've been doing vlcd and your body is in starvation. But you need to give it a couple months and you'll see the the results

I had my first weigh in on Monday and had a STS. A half inch drop on my hips and waist though. I'm keeping it up until Feb 11th and will reevaluate then. I'm very results-driven so I find it hard not to see a drop on the scales after a good week!
Best of luck with it. Let us know how you get on! X

Looking for advice on activity level when working out tdee. I walk 1-2 hours a week with the kids 1-2 times a week,do all the housework/cleaning and running around after the toddler. Im currently doing the 30 day shred so working out everyday, im using my heart rate moniter to work out calories burned then eating them back. Could I set TDEE at lightly active then eat the work out calories back when I burn them? Just dont want to eat too much or too little. Im eating 1200-1400 cals a day now, working out daily is making me not very hungry so its harder to eat more when im working out daily

I think the level of activity u put then includes the cals you burn.
If u think you are more than lightly active, change to active-which in turn will give you a higher tdee-and more cals to eat (instead of lightly active then eating back cals).
I read though that everyone assumes they are more active than they actually are (unless athletes). I run every day and still only count it as lightly active (as well as kids/house/work etc too).
But I'm defo no expert-hope it helps!
