How long is it since you last weighed yourself? It's easy to get a bit obsessed with it! Try to only do it once a week at the same te of day for the most consistent results.

The last time I dieted I got a bit too obsessed and I weighed myself everyday. That diet didn't last very long. However, this time I have decided to weigh myself every week and this diet has lasted a lot longer. I would encourage you to do whatever works best for you.

Keep positive all your hard work will pay off.

Have a good week.

We lose weight when we eat less calories than we burn. Unfortunately thats the naked truth of it.

Hard to offer advice without knowing more about how you are going.

Would love to hear what you do each day, what exercise you are doing, how you are actually calorie counting. do you keep a food diary (very useful for those of us who are stumped over why we are not losing weight).

Fill us in a bit more - would be nice to get to know you

The thing is chrismunro even healthy foods have lots of calories and unless you are eating less calories than you are using you will not lose weight.

To achieve a steady 1lb a week weight loss you need to use 500 calories a day more than you eat so you really need to measure your energy output and input to ensure that you are doing this.
