  • Hi, 3lbs per month is well withing the recommended most healthy weightloss range of 0.5 to 1 lb per week, so I think you are doing really well to keep that up consistently since July - well done!
  • Can you keep a bowl of fruit in your room to snack on in the evenings? What about cereal bars?
  • Hi, I'm in Scotland, I've been here about a month. I could do with some diet buddies, but I don't know how to add people - should I search on facebook?
