The results are in. I've lost 8 pounds 12 oz in 30 days.

2 pounds 6 oz in the last 7 days.

I don't feel excited because I still have such a long way to go!

But, I had to share somewhere!

No that's not slow. That's ideal. Lose it faster and it will probably come back.

Well done @ChubbyGroundhog. That’s very impressive. I hope you can feel the loss as well as see it on the scales. 🎉🥳

Thanks. I don't know about it coming back. I've never had it come back in 20 years of doing this, apart from the last few months, when I went OTT for a holiday abroad and the holidays.

Learned my lesson about eating junk food, for sure!

Better to be slow, steady and sustainable than to drop quickly and not be able to maintain. Well done, you should be pleased with yourself, it’s a great amount lost!
