[QUOTE="Nicksu, post: 1367797, member: 325281"] My weight loss was like that at first - a dramatic drop following the drop in carbs and sugar and then starting to drop down about a pound or 2 a week. My only exercise is walking - usually 35-45 mins a day (split into 2 parts - 25/30 mins and then the rest later in the day). You have to remember also that when you are exercising you will be putting on muscle - and muscle weighs more per square inch than fat. So the scales can be quite deceptive in that regard. Seeing how clothes fit (or not) is probably the best way to find if you've lost weight. I've been doing this for 4½ months and have lost 2½ stone. I seemed to have got a bit stuck over Christmas and New Year - despite being out nearly every day in all weathers (and some of it was bl**dy freezing!). My last weight loss? 2 pounds. As someone said to me once - it took that long to go on, its not going to come off any quicker! (which wasn't much consolation at the time but I can see where they were coming from!). Just keep going and if you get the munchies look for something with fat in it - cheese is a good one I find if I get the late night munchies. [/QUOTE]
