Hi lighterlifer, I think 1lb a week is easily achievable, I had sneaky look at scales today and ive already lost more than last week so roll on sat (WD), I think SF is easier than lighterlife, I lasted less than a week, with SF you can get through the day by looking forward to a nice dinner, and I have a treat every saturday and am still loosing, let us know if you give SF a go and how it works for you x
