I'm from the east coast...of England. Ok, I guess I don't count.

I'm 26...not much of an expert though!

2lbs in 10 days is really good. I never lose more than 1lb a week unless i'm sick!

Reading your post made me feel sad! Please don't feel down, you are doing amazingly well. Just keep going and celebrating the little wins along the way. I always think it helps to compare your loss to something real, so it's not just a number. You were carrying 37lbs - that's a the equivalent of carrying a small child on…

Thans so much for all the responses so far and the open diaries - really helpful!!

I usually gain a pound or so, which disappears (usually with a bit extra) the next week. I don't seem to get any particular cravings on TOM so my diet stays the same, but I don't exercise as much. I usually get at least one or two migraines during the week, and I always skip workouts when I have a migraine.

I do 4 days on, 1 day off. Bit early to tell if it's working yet.

I'm working towards Christmas too! My goal is 0.5lb loss per week until then. I lose slowly (I wrote I was a "slow loser" first time around, then read that back and thought I should probably change it!! ) Feel free to add me too :-)

I'll join you! Not only could I do with saving calories, I could do with saving money too... Bring it on!

I just started 30 Day Shred this week and it is HARD! I'm not that fit. I am really enjoying it though.

I know three people who have tried it. The first lost a significant amount of weight but has since gained it all back and more. The second lost a lot of weight and so far seems to be keeping it off by following the weekly "protein only" days. The third is me! I hated it, felt sick all the time and gave up after four days.…

Love this! I'm a pear and have always been kind of insecure about it. The boyf seems to like it though :-)

Oh dear...I think I might be "unlimited minute girl". That's the reason I mainly go to classes - I can't be trusted to work out properly and actually push myself when I'm on my own!

You sound similar to me, I'm not technically overweight but I'd like to lose about 25 pounds because I think I'll feel and look a lot healthier. I'm also fairly unfit at the moment, so I really want to work on doing more exercise, losing fat and gaining muscle. As others have said, weight loss seems to be slower when you…

UK - but I've always wanted to live in the USA!! Overall it seems to me there are more USA people on here, but it depends on the time of day I guess...

You work from 3am until 5pm??

For me, it's drinking calories. I mostly just drink water now.

I'm from the East of England and for me it has to be fish and chips!

That's so horrible :-( I had my moments as a teenager, but I would never have been so rude about someone in the street. The other week on the train home, I heard this guy telling the man next to him he was too fat and taking up too much space and that he shouldn't sit down if he couldn't fit in one seat. I felt so bad for…

I'm in Essex, you're welcome to add me!

I eat them when doing strength training, so I'm cool.

I can see a real difference! Well done! Keep up the good work!

Well done on your loss so far! I stopped losing about a month ago, after eight pounds. I was only eating 1200 a day and a few people suggested that might be the problem. I've now upped my calories to 1500, am eating back exercise calories and working out more days a week. I really hope this gets me losing again but it's…

26 here!

Did you recently start working out? Because when I started working out properly I actually gained weight! It was the most depressing thing ever! I've since read it's to do with your muscles holding onto water, but I didn't know that at the time. I lost it all and more after a few weeks though.

That's such a good idea! What is the app?

I agree, I log everything...except celery! Apart from on days when I'm really, really bored at work, then I log celery.

I'm from Essex, UK!

Eating out! I love trying restaurants with my boyfriend and I'm often tempted into unhealthy food...and dessert...

It's a weight I used to be and it felt right. Also, it's a nice round number - 9 stone :-) Maybe if I were from the USA and weighing myself in pounds, I'd have picked a different number!
