    Hi @Brambling thanks for running this list, I made a total of 2.5 kg loss over the quarter, so I am delighted, and will continue my slow coach journey in the 3. quarter. 
    Thank you everybody.

    Final weigh in +1/2 lb on last week. Really hoped it would go down. With the hot weather I haven't been eating much at all. I didn't even eat the meal planned for yesterday (salmon with Greek chickpea salad which I will eat tonight instead) and had a tiny lunch as well. Overall I am up 1lb on my last starting weight  :'(

    Reached a 1 lb loss on Sunday and the scales haven't moved since then.
    So just a 1.5 lb loss for the quarter.

    [Regarding incorrect medical records - I guess they might often have been wrong in the past but we didn't see them.  Now it may be caused by ticking the wrong box when there isn't one to record what they actually want to say.]
