I think this is the longest I've ever kept up an effort to lose weight and be healthier! I've got quite competitive with my walking, I've got the noom coach app, which automatically sets step targets based on previous activity, and find myself pacing the living room whilst watching tv to get my step count up!

Today's weight - 74.5kg. That's a loss this week of 0.6kg and a total loss of 3.5kg in the 4 weeks. A little less than I would have liked this week, but the scales tell me my muscle % is going up, so longer term that'll help. And I'm over the half stone mark!

I'm just finishing week 1 and I'm feeling really positive. Keep at it :-)
