    Weekly weigh in thread

    I weighed in tonight and have lost 1.5lbs in the last week - I really believe it is down to the walking I have done which is approximately 9.5 miles in the last 3 days and the fact that I started the RC plan on Saturday. I know a full week will give me a true result so onwards and downwards I hope.
