    Hi Sammy, did you happen to take measurements? If not take them right now and keep up the exercise and measure in a month. Also when you exercise, you tend to retain water in muscles whilst they repair. So it can be a false reading xx

    Motivation and incentive to lose weight!

    I think that is very possible, 2lbs a week is a good weekly goal. If you arent keen on salad or veg, try having a fresh fruit salad after or before a meal. I've lost 6.5 in two weeks, so your target is totally achievable :)

    Charlotteg1988 food diary (please tell me off when bad)

    I've decided I need a public diary as I keep eating high fat foods. I've been doing so so well, but I'm on half term from college and just pigged out! Indian take out, mcD happy meal, 2 bbqs where I didn't eat the grilled chicken and rice I planned on, instead I munched on burgers, kebab sticks...
