2lbs off for me this week. Hooray! It's been really hard going though - on to day 3 of the detox and what I wouldn't give for a Diet Coke and some chocolate :eek:

3 hours exercise for me so far this week.

Svenena, good luck with your goals for this year, and good luck with the internet dating when you start!! A stone and a half is still great

And good luck to everyone else, here's to a great January!

I just missed your post when I did the chart - I've updated the chart but will put your exercise into next weeks if that's ok with you.

Thanks for the "good luck" messages and also fredsnail's useful message about keeping focus plus the thought provoking quote.

Well done on SOTW Rubyslippers :T

Has anyone come across this: What's the right diet for you?

There is a corresponding Horizon mini-series, which I haven't seen yet but have started to recorded. Started last night, on again tonight and tomorrow.

Of course, the right diet for you has to be whatever works. When I did the test, it came out at 56% Constant Craver, and recommended intermittent dieting (aka intermittent fasting/5:2 diet). 56% doesn't seem like a very high proportion, but I don't have anything to compare it to. Anyway, it has prompted me to give intermittent fasting a bit of another go, so I'm fasting today. Getting hungry now. I'm going to have a cup of tea for lunch

-0.5lbs for me this week. Not much to show for a week of dieting and dedicated gym going :-(

I didn't think I'd got very far though, didn't 'feel' like I'd lost any weight, if you know what I mean. I have so much going on at the moment - my aunty is dying of cancer, my friend is going through chemo, and we're about to start IVF - and I'm not sure how to (metaphorically!) carry all that weight and feel good about myself.

7 hours exercise this week as well for me :-)

Half a pound is still a loss, and to be congratulated. Sounds like you're going through a tough time at the moment, so well done for not giving up when the going is tough. Good luck with the IVF too; I'll cross my fingers and toes you're successful.

It's -4.2 for me this week - yesterday's fast obviously kickstarted things. Fasting again today, as apparently it's better to do two days in a row, although I don't intend to do so every week. I'll probably rebound next week and have a gain :mad:

Fred, could you please adjust my total loss to 27.2, which is from last year's starting point, and accounts for the weight I regained in the second half of last year.
