Hi All,

This is the Diary of a Man from Portsmouth who is on the weight loss journey with Slimming World.

I have gone from 26st 12lb to 23st 8lb, so a 3st 4lb loss in 16wks.

I am going to write what I am eating, how I'm training & anything else I feel is a help or hindrance to my weight loss.

Please feel free to comment or ask questions.

Here's to a good July....
