    Well as expected I absolutely trashed myself over a 24hr period.

    Went to Clapham at 5pm and drank copious amounts of cider, ate pub food, more cider, beer, more cider and when i went home (finally) at 4pm on Sunday afternoon I grabbed a pepperoni pizza from the shop before climbing in to bed and sleeping for 18 hours.

    Still I felt the urge to clean the house today so slowly getting back in to normal mode.

    Ah, it's only a couple of days - it can't make that much difference in the long run, you'll be back on it this week!

    I've basically maintained this week which isn't too bad considering I went over my calories about 4 times thanks to all my eating out... this week will be better.

    Been very slack in posting, but I have hit the 1st stone lost mark :D My goal for the next two weeks is to not gain any back as I'm Stateside visitng family *L* Two days in though and I've made decent food choices,but when I get home I want to resume the food diary. Hope all is well in the UK!

    Another 9lbs lost again this month, think that's three months in a row now. Hopefully the same again next month :glasses:

    Just had a look and it didn't look *that* bad although I don't see any of that cider on there... ;o)

    By the way, I don't know how much you weigh, but 1300 calories a day seems ridiculously little for a bloke. I'm on 1770 and that's only just over my BMR...

    I think 1300 cals is too little for anybody! Esp since your basic sitting down breathing type activity burns 1200 cals a day :noway:

    My daily target was just under 1300 when I was aiming to lose 1lb a week. It's 1400 now I'm back to losing 0.5lb a week. It would be less than that if I hadn't set my lifestyle to semi active on the goal set up. I agree that 1300 sounds very low for a man (assuming he weighs considerably more than me). I guess though it depends how much of a calorie deficit and activity level you have set up.

    my daily target is less the 1300 and i lose 2 lbs a week. all depends how your body handles it. It seems like i found the right balance. I think everyones bodys are different

    Stick to what works for you untill it don't then look to change is my advice!
