    2Ibs loss for me too.
    Hopefully I can keep it up. Bit of a sad week though as I had my little dog PTS. She had advanced dementia so it's been strange not taking care of her.

    I've lost 1lb this week.  I think that takes me past my target, so I would like to reset the target to 1st (14lbs) 

    Thanks
    Well done Ainsty 👏👏 target has been adjusted
