Hi, I am 5ft4 and currently weighing between 174 lbs - 168 lbs depending on the scales/day! I would like to get to a healthy weight for my height of 146 lbs. So, I have approximately 24 lbs to lose which at 1 lb a week, will be by June/July. I have tried more extreme diets before but couldn't stick to them. So, here I go - wish me luck!

    you can do it dont worry one pound a week is achievable and its good to see you have perspective and not saying ten pounds in a week like some other gimmicky sites! all the help and support you need is here :)

    I've just started as well - welcome! This is my fourth day and it's great so far - very motivating. You can do it.
