You've done so well, bearing in mind how good / bad your diet was in the first place tho, will reflect this loss

Hi

This is the end of my first week too and I have about the same as you do to lose. I think it;s quite hard when you're not too overweight because I find I don't get much encouragement, people say 'you don't need to lose weight' But I know where it is, all hidden under my skirt! And my BMI puts me in the overweight catagory.

Anyway, I lost 3lbs in my first week but my waist (and thighs, the problem area) measure the same so it's probably gone from my top half where I don't need to lose it!

I'm feeling motivated to carry on though and if it drops to 1lb a week so be it :-)

Good luck with week 2

Hi Zoe

It's going surprisingly well considering I've not been too good at weekends. Another 2 1/2lbs this week bringing my total in 3 weeks to 6 1/4lbs. I'm not too good with the exercise but I do 20 mins turbo training on my exercise bike every other day and I try to walk the long way if I go into town, about 20 minutes and up and down hill instead of 10 minutes on the straight. I haven't lost any inches from my waist or thighs but i do feel a lot less bloaty. I'm off to Tenerife today for a week so will not be weighing in next week :-)

Good luck for next week
