Are you the type that can actually put on weight Jayne? Some people are just thin. I'm like a broomhandle, a whippet, a pull-through, etc etc, I can eat as much as I want; trash, healthy stuff, meat, whatever and I simply cant and don't put on weight!!! I don't know where it goes; think weights, exercise is the only option for me!
facetowardsfront: Well done. The only thing I will say about most gyms is that they are still working off an outdated and inefficient training philosophy that takes an awful lot of sweat and time. They have you doing a workout that is way too long and coming in too often. Fair enough, to start off you will need to do fairly high reps (10-12) and maybe three sets for each exercise, with maybe 15-20 set per workout. But as you get to know the proper form you only need to hit what are called compound exercises (squats, deadlifts, bench presses, shoulder presses, pullups) for a couple of sets and do reps in the 6-8 range. Total sets per workout 2-4. If you're training for longer than 10-15 minutes you are not using enough weight.
This will sound like heresy to traditionally trained instructors but believe me, I tried it their way for many years with poor enough results.

Look at this young one - 17 and she's doing stuff most inter-county footballers couldn't do. Anyone who trains will know those are serious man sized weights she is using.

I haven't watched it all, but this sounds like Sweden's official proposal for fat loss by their Health Department. I can see it working for dangerously obese people as a way to massage insulin levels. But long term... I don't think it's a good idea.

I don't know. If the low fat thing really worked wouldn't everyone who goes to weightwatchers be wafer thin? I've been over 10 years getting the fat out of my diet and I was not as cut as I thought I should be. Back before that I ate all the fats and was skin stretched across muscle and bone. In the past three months I've stopped with the low fat crap and I've actually started to cut up without trying. That's just my experience, I have no proof.
As some wisely suggested here already, first you should seek medical advice. If you lost the weight fast and without reason in your lifestyle, you should have possible underlying causes investigated by a doctor, I think.
Found this link, which is a rough guide. According to this I am at ideal weight, but at your height and with 7 stones you'd be a bit under the recommended bracket, so a trip to the doc really sounds the right thing
Gym instructors can't check your blood and stuff, but surely will be a good aid to get things fine should there be no health reasons for that weight loss.
