Well done to everyone doing this!
There is so much advice and (mis)information about so try not to be overwhelmed - there is no one-size-fits-all approach.
If you can analyse what you "want" long-term and try to make sustainable changes then success will be easier to achieve.
What eventually worked for me was realising that I have a huge appetite and will never be able to do what Stuart says above and have smaller portions at dinner - I tried this for ages and made myself miserable depriving myself. I switched to eating low-calorie filling foods like raw fruit and veg and led to sustainable weight loss and changes for me. It wasn't as nice as pasta or chips but I felt full and could stay under calorie goals.

Wouldn't you put more of a curve in that chart too? Easier to lose a few pounds at the start than in April?
Haven't got any working scales, so can't join in right now, but think I have lost quite a bit through just running and following my normal diet. Could definitely make more effort on the food I eat though.

Not a curve, just make it horizontal.

Not a curve, just make it horizontal.

Woah
The target line is fine, not saying it will go down like that but just got to stay below it
I take offence at that, I don't really like junk food.
I just love lots and lots and lots of really good food, and beers, and wines and whisky!

Do any of you use scales that do body fat and link to the samsung health app (or any app that works on android)? Just went down a rabbit hole looking for some new scales. I might just get the bog standard ones, as many of the fancy scales aren't compatible and am a bit dubious on the accuracy of the other stuff. Just wanted to know if anyone does this and finds it worthwhile.

Bog standard digital scales and see what hole my belt is on to measure body fat changes.
Body fat measurement with scales will be incredibly inaccurate and also inconsistent.
I've got these one at £17

We've got those exact same ones, they've been good as gold.
They even know if I've got my thick socks on.

Cheers, will just go for them. I have been using the belt/waste size thing to judge weight loss too over the last few years.

Those fat measuring scales are all rubbish, they just make a programmed guess.
I just go for same scales and weigh at the same time each week

I've got a bunch of Coach Greg e-books, if anyone wants them.
Including a couple cookbooks, so you can eat more than last time

Great to see so many involved.
Week 1 Friday 7th Jan- 13:11:8
Been a good week, plenty of exercise and mostly healthy eating/ no junk food.
Always find motivation easier the first few weeks, gets a bit harder feb onwards!
Looking to do 10k steps a day the forthcoming week/ drink more water and less sugar free drinks.

Ha, was heavier than I expected. Weighed in at 95kg, 15 stone. I am pretty sure I was a lot lighter than this when running more regularly 3 months ago. I had got down from 38 inch waste to 34, but no idea how much I weighed then, but 36 is still fine.
Going to aim to run more regularly amd get down to 14 stone over the next couple of months, and aim to do a 35 minute 5k. I got down to 36 before, but couldn't even beat 40 first run back. I think this was just lack of fitness as I just blew up in the last 2k, and was doing near 7 minute splits at the start, and basically had to walk the last 2km.
