    i started again yesterday, i didnt want to start on jan first, my parents started today too but they eat a ton more crap than they would have knowing they were gonna have to diet again. pointless in my book

    i think 4kg in 26 days is a big challenge, maybe set your goal lower so you dont get disappointed and disheartened

    QFT. A healthy weight loss is 1 lb. (.453kg) per week.

    Read this. I wish it'd been around when I started:
