Well I'm back again and bigger than ever, I couldn't tell you why I quit last time, I think I had one bad day which led to another and another.
The thing is that over the past 12 months I didn't think I was eating too poorly, once I started on MFP again I saw that I wasn't eating a lot but I was eating absolute rubbish.
I've gone out and bought some scales and I'm trying to be sensible about stuff, no more drinking mid week, I've cut down on the amount of coffee I'm drinking, and I'm being a lot more sensible with my breakfast.
My daily calories are between 1400/1500, like I said earlier in my post, I'm not a big eater it's just that what I do eat is rubbish.
I'm fully expecting the rate of loss to slow down soon but at the minute I'm enjoying it and I'm feeling good about myself.
I've got 9lbs to lose and then I'm back to where I started 18 months ago.
