How long did it take you to see noticable results?
I have just uploaded a picture of me one month and 3kg down but I can't really tell if there is a difference. Feel free to have a look at my profile and tell me what you think. How long or how much weight did you lose before you saw a change in the appearance of your body?

How did you decide on your goal weight?
I don't know how to determine a good goal weight. At the start of last year I was 52kg and was happy enough at that but I think i'm gaining muscle so should I increase my goal weight? I'm currently 59.4kg and my waist is 69.5cm but over the period when i was gaining weight I had the same waist measurement at 58kg.
