Ok so week one, great, stuck to the 1200 cal per day, went running, did netball. Lost 2 pound great. That's it, nothing else. I'm really trying and I just stay with the 2 pound lost. Im getting defeated by it and because im hungry I eat!!!. SDo of course I don't loose weight, that makes me down - vicious circle. Anyone else in the same boat?? Any tips or ideas to motivate me???
HELP :-(

    You lost 2lb! Well done! It's a great start, and a healthy loss.

    If you really are hungry, I suggest vegetables. Crunchy ones. Celery, kale, carrots, etc. Keep some clean, bagged, and ready to munch. Sure it may be another 100 calories and your weight loss may slow down a tad, but hungry people binge eat.

    change your rate of loss to 1lb per week so you can eat more... you should also eat back exercise cals if you dont already... you don tneed to starve to lose weight.
