I have been religiously logging everything that passes my lips in my food diary. The week before last, I lost just over 4lbs and was thrilled (I'm on diet chef).

Hi, I am on diet chef and was advised to eat 1500 cals a day. After a week of struggling to eat so much, I only lost a pound :sad: so I decided to alter my calorie intake.
