Hi everyone I'm trying to clean up my eating and have just joine Leaness Lifestyle. They advise that I should eat (in a zigzag) around 1000 calories per day (40-40-20). Since doing this for over a week i've found i'm tired and have no energy. I'm working out for 1 hour/day (alternating...

Hi everyone Couldn't drag myself out of bed this morning for my 5:30am workout so have to 'face it' when I get home...trying P90X Plyometrics for the first time, eeeekkk! Also joined Leannes Lifestyle which is proving useful for balancing my 40/40/20 food ratio. Have Lost 2.5lbs so far...

Hi Becca Sorry to hear you've 'quit' - although the only thing I've found really useful on the site is their nutrition analyser which allows you balance your meals (40% carbs, 40% protein & 20% fat - 1100ish cals) - easier said than done! I enquired about the 'book' situation and David...

Hi I got my 'joining' email through on Saturday. I was a little confused at first but I'm getting my head round everything (I think)! There are a few questions I'd like explaining: Frequency of workouts - only given a %. Finding it hard to get all my food ratios right. Do they all...

Hi Has anyone had any success with the Leanness for Life programme? Thinking of starting the above - looks good but unless people recommend, it's difficult to know whether it's worth trying! TIA Andrea

Congratulations Carole! I did Body Max for the first time yesterday and really felt it in my legs - doing upper body seemed like a 'walk in the park'. Imax2 today - there's still 1 step interval I can't nail! Patience!!! See you all tomorrow, Andrea

Hi Cathe I like the option of doing longer workouts like in the premix section of SB/SJP - combining 2 workouts together? On the other hand, as a rule, I only have around 1hr MAX in the week to workout so this length of premix would be really handy too (unless the workouts themselves are...

Hi I use dumbells and find they work fine - I also use them for upper body work too as a sub for barbell. I tend to use 10-15lbs for legs - did try 20lbs but found them hard to grip for any length of time (only have small hands). I must admit, I did think about getting a barbell when I...

No scales for me! I've stopped weighing myself - a major 'achievement'! The scales just weren't reflecting how I looked and felt - which is the main thing, right? DH has hidden the batteries out of the scales so I can't even have a sneakey weigh-in. Will report in nice and early...
