Fresh new month, fresh new start, fresh new habits. Jump right in to reset & refresh to become a healthier version of yourself. These threads are for those who’d like to lose and those who wish to maintain whilst eating a healthy varied diet.

As no one size fits all, members need to follow their own way of eating. This thread aims to offer guidance, support and a bit of hand holding.

We generally have WOW (weigh on Wednesday) day each week. However post and share your progress as often or as little as you prefer. Do what works for you.

The important thing is not to think of it as a diet (based on deprivation and unsustainable) but more a way of life (sustainable & enjoyable).

I calorie count based on a lower carb Mediterranean diet. I intermittent fast and eat twice a day. Im a long time healthy eater and overall I’ve lost over 3 stone. After having been on the wrong side of 12st Im now hovering around 9st. I had a blip a couple of years ago when my thyroid went wonky but now back on track.

Are you in😊 What food plan will you be following? What do you want to change and why?

Feel free to share your own links, tips & recipes 👍

Hovering within the same 1kg range for the 5th week and realised I'm obviously eating at maintenance level. Bit slow on the uptake sometimes !
50th birthday this week and not at 75kg as I'd hoped but that's ok. Couple of meals out this week so from Monday I'm going to tighten up the rules again as I definitely want to hit TW 74kg before going overseas 28th May. It's completely doable, just need to commit!
NSV lovely old bangle I prised off (barely) last year has just slipped on quite easily. Really pleased as it was a 40th gift from DH. And he's just given me a different one for my 50th which was made me think of digging it out:) so I'm happily jangling in my bangles😁
SW 88.8
TW 74

Well done everyone. Keep going. I've had so many blips so if you have too, remember it IS just a blip and get back on the horse. I didn't dare hope when I started 4 months ago that I'd have lost 13kg by now.
