well I just checked the scaled and I have lost 1.5 pounds this week! Hurray! I think part of the problem was too many carbs. I also have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and when I eat too many carbs, not only do I not lose weight but I start feeling ill again so I need to try and keep my carbs to less than 120g per day, otherwise…

How do I work out my body fat ?

I am netting less on the days I exercise (which is at least half the week).

I took pictures at the start when I was 8 pounds heavier but haven't taken one since. I will do this now and then in a couple of week's time and see if I look slimmer.

It was minus 20%.

In Asda and Sainsburys I buy crudites with cheese and chive dip. They also have crudites with hummous but I don't like hummous. Both packs are about 100 calories and low carb and cost £1 each. I find them quite filling.

I checked on the site scoobysworkshop and it has given me 1300 calories to eat if I want to lose weight and 1620 to maintain my weight.

Yes I did take measurements but I haven't checked them for a couple of weeks. I will check tonight. I wear a lot of loose fitting clothes at the moment so it's hard to tell if they're fitting me differently. I can't fit back into my jeans yet :(

Thanks everyone. I lose motivation when I see nothing or very little coming off yet I put weight ON so easily. In a week I could easily put on 3-4 pounds but NEVER lose 3-4 pounds in a week :(

That is interesting as I stopped losing weight since I started exercising!

Welcome - I am new too. I have 8-10 pounds to reach my goal weight
