Im feeling a little better. I wrote out a list of things I felt needed to change in order to progress, her goals, what she needed to do to get there and what I will do to help her achieve them. I contacted her and said I wanted to have a chat with her as I was unhappy about a few things. She...

Thanks for your ideas. I do the cardio with her yes and she refuses to do it in any other area other than the beach. I have tried doing intervals with her and she complains about it being boring, ive tried cycling with her but she doesnt like it, i have gone swimming with her and she wasnt self...

Yeh might try cycling her calories a bit and il push with the extra cardio. I know she struggles with the water and even though every single week i ask her to log exactly how much shes drinking, the answer is always 'oh loads', which I reckon probably isnt even the 5.

Thanks for the help. It would be easy working with someone like you! I use fitday alot and have other clients using it aswell. She is so loazy though that she really would not bother using it and would see it as an escape route if u know what I mean. I can hardly get her to write her food down...

About 2000 as I thought 10 x bodyweight would be way too highand she reckons thats as much as she can get in as she has stomach problems. Do you think this is too low?

I have a client who I train in her home for the last year. She weighed 406lbs when we started and she is now down to 308lbs. However in the last few months she has been fluctuating and basically just maintaining her weight. She travels alot and so she will be home for 2 weeks and then away for 2...

Butter and bananas dont really agree with me too much, instead of butter id rather get my fat sources from flax or fish oils. Im not afraid of this type of food I just think I could find better sources for me in terms of less saturated and also I have a bit of IBS. Pitas have taken a backseat...

I started my carb rotation today and so far so good. I know it really comes down to basic stuff but sometimes, like everyone, you go looking for something else that doesnt exist and end up back with basic principles such as this! Thanks for taking the time to do out a sample carb rotation. Mine...

Thanks, im gonna try a carb rotation and upping the cardio to maybe 4-5 a week. Thanks a million for all ur suggestions :)

Thanks alot sassy, i dunno how you stuck it for, as u said, ' 2 lousy lbs'! I looked through your posts and youve transformed your body unbelievably!!!! You look amazing and seem to know ur stuff so I was hopin you'd respond here. I use fitday the odd time yeah and also the nutritional content...

The fat is liquid (udos choice)- 3 tablespoon usually or 30ml so I got my omegas. This sympathy is great though, mostly i just hear 'geta life'!

Yeh im sure the ratios r rite, i break em down on excel the night before. I am eating usually 2 pitas a day, each at 23.5g-c 2g-f 5.5g-p. Rice and yams i do aswell for phases. I can go back to them for variety, maybe brown pasta as its lower gi than rice? I dont feel like im lacking anything...

Im doing usually intervals of high intesity for about 30mins. I was doing 5 a week and then stopped but maybe a need to up it some more and mix intervals with longer sessions to total 5 a week. Thats gonna kill me, but can be done. Thanks

As i said i weigh 180lbs and i was taking in 1800 cals a day and then changed it to 1700 last week in desperation to see some results. My ratios were 50p 20c 30f. I take in 47-50g of fat per day and its good fat like from fish or from udos. I was eating nuts like almonds but i find it hard to...

Im so disheartened! Ive been trying to really cut for the last 6weeks. My calorie intake is 1700 at 50p 25c 25f, i just changed it from 1800 calories as im getting nowhere and so im tryin to switch some things about. Im 6ft and weigh 180lbs with a bf% of id say around 20 at the moment. Im...
