Welcome and glad you joined the forum. Try thinking it as a healthier lifestyle then I have to lose 2pounds per week. Because it will take the pressure of you when some weeks it will not be attainable. I know that so well in my life time of dieting. Best wishes on your journey.

Thanks, I know it can be so disheartening when it doesn't go as well as planned. I will try my best to see the positive.
