    Morning all,

    Reporting a 2lbs loss this week, have to admit, I’m pretty pleased with that

    STS this week. I've been jogging and doing weights workouts, plus eating fairly healthily... apart from a meal out and a trip to the cinema. I succumbed to popcorn!

    I have to say another STS for me.

    (Overall, since 1 April, I've lost 0.2 kg but that doesn't convert to even a half pound.)

    So my line on the chart should look like
