Hi all!
I recently signed up to my local gym on one of their transform programmes where you can lose a set amount of weight in 6 weeks. This is a combination of an eating plan they give you and attending 3 gym sessions a week. The diet is all clean eating (chicken and turkey, brown rice, greens etc) but works out roughly 1200 cals a day. I lost 5lbs in my first week but for the last 3 weeks it's going back on!
Before this I did slimming world and I had a consistent 2lbs a week weight loss but now I'm really deflated that things have halted. I know there is always an element of body shock when you start exercising but I'm actually concerned that my body had gone into starvation mode and is holding onto everything. I'm regularly burning 2400cals plus daily... but at only taking in 1200 calories I think there's too big a deficit.
I'm tempted to go back to my SW plan where I had a bigger calorie intake but still ate healthily and continue the exercise plan.
The inches are definitely coming off but you can't see inches written down can you. ☹
All advice welcome!!
