    Thanks precious! soozsb - totally forgot to say well done on the loss. have you ever googled '1lb of fat', may make you feel happier on losing the lb!! the main thing is you are getting smaller, even if this happens half a pound at a time; you'd get there in the end! :)

    W/C 14th December challenge!

    Hi Kes. I can understand how you got mixed up. I probably didn't do well in explaining it! Your first weigh in this week is towards your weight loss. So if person x lost 2lbs this week and aimed for 8lbs to lose for the 4 weigh ins, they would have 6lbs left to lose for this challenge. I...

    Thanks :). I'm on 1000 cals a day and I ate a lot of fruit. I've had a bad few weeks so that's prob why I've lost so much this week. Just shows that if you are in plateau (not that I was), taking a week or 2 off should help kick your metabolism back!

    New calorie counter!

    I agree too with you Sally, it's more like a lifestyle change! I think calorie counting works because if you are craving something you can have it and just include the calories like the rose said. And because you are allowing your cravings you have less chance falling off the wagon! Good luck...
