Been back at the gym every day since January, and stripped nearly a stone off, however seem to have hit a bit of a block.
I'm running uphill for 30-50 minutes every morning on the treadmill, and just started doing 4000 metres on the rower.
routine now is
Monday - spinning class 30 mins followed by 7 a side football 1 hour
Tuesday and Wednesday off
Thursday - gym for 1 hour ten, mainly cardio, tradmill and rower, followed by squash at 8pm after work
Friday- gym for 1 hour ten, mainly cardio, treadmill and rower, again followed by squash Friday night
Gym Saturday and Sunday.
I am down to 12 stone 6, but want to get to 11,4 so I'm thinking of having an intake of as few a calories as possible and eating no shit at all to get there before may.
What shakes would you reccomend for what I am doing. I am also taking t5 to try keep energy levels as high as poss.
Any advice appreciated, as never gone down the shakes route and google gives billions of options

Re: Need to lose a stone in 2 months
You don't need shakes and if T5 is a fat burning supplement, forget that, as the possible side effects and useless, unquantifiable results, are not worth the money.
Calories wise, I'd aim for around 2,200 - 2,500 a day, as sedentary men requre a standard 2,000 a day, so you could aim for what I suggested then cut back a bit on non-workout days.
Your cardio looks a bit too much to be honest. You're doing 5 days out of 7, but 4 back to back and on Squash days, you're doubling up.
I'd amend it to possibly this sort of thing.
Monday - 7 a side football 1 hour
Tuesday - squash at 8pm after work
Wednesday off
Thursday - gym for 45 minutes, mainly cardio, treadmill and rower, so that's 15 minutes on each device.
Friday- Squash at 8pm after work.
Gym Saturday and Sunday. Spinning class 30 mins if it's done on one of these days and take the other day off.
You're getting 2 days off, but they're split to stop you training for too many consecutive days and you're still getting provision for 2 squash sessions and your 7 a side and hopefully spinning; so none of those are getting the can.
