Very excited about my weigh-in this morning. Yesterday was my 8th fastday and I'm only weighing and measuring every 2 weeks. So I've been doing this for nearly a month and the results are amazing.
3.4kg (7.5lbs) lost in weight, 9cm gone on the waist and bodyfat is down by 3%. I seem to have an above average weight loss right now, but from what I've read that is normal at the beginning and then it slows down to a plateau in a couple of months.
What really amazes me is that I have really not changed my diet at all on feed days, I am still having a good few drinks when I go out, the odd bowl of ice cream at home once the kids are in bed and I even munched through about 8 quality street last week on the sofa with OH.
I did try to start the 30 day shred this week and completed day 2, but my calves hurt so much that I didn't go back for more. I want do get rid of my belly fat and tone down my hips and thighs, but my calves are grand to look at
I need to find something I like - it's the only way I'll stick at it!!!

I don't think a plateau is necessarily inevitable (I am in week 16 and have recorded a weight loss every week; some of them small yes but a steady downward movement nonetheless), there are so many factors that seem to contribute to each person's weight loss or lack of it that you can only go by your own experience really. May yours continue to be positive!
