    Great advice on the weights! I'm going to buy some today so I can do weights at home. I work at a university and while I can use the gym for free, it's very difficult to get time on any of the equipment because it's always PACKED with students. (They're quite inspiring!)

    working out at home would be OK at first..but I would really recommend using the gym because you have access to more stuff like power rack, pull up station, free weights, machines, etc....

    From my experience, a bigger breakfast really helps. I looked at your food diary and it looks like you could be adding some more to that, maybe some fruit or toast would be good. I used to eat really small breakfasts, a medium lunch and a huge dinner, but I soon found out that it should be the complete opposite of that. I was plateauing for 2 months before I changed my breakfast intake and then started to lose again :)
