I need to loose weight for two reasons, diabetes and OA which causes me mobility problems. It’s a constant struggle, but this last week I have gained enthusiam and doing pretty good having lost 1.75 pounds in the last week. For most of my adult life I have struggled with my weight so hopefully I can put it behind me now.
 
Hi @Tafflin, it's hard going sometimes isn't it. What narks me is when I'm really good and don't lose anything, but then the week after I'll suddenly drop a pound...it just goes at its own sweet pace.

Well done on the 1.75lb loss, keep on in there!
