Finally losing weight again

After months of going between 77 - 78.5kg, I decided to make a few changes with my eating plan. I've basically been doing "The biggest loser club program" using meal replacements (and lots of healthy food). I love this program - it fits in well with my lifestyle and I'm rarely hungry. Since I just couldn't break through the plateau I decided to change my target calorie amount (down to 1500cal) and the weight has started coming off again. The plan is to stick with the program (2 drinks plus food) until I get to 68kg and then gradually cut back to 1 drink (breakfast) plus food. I think I'll always keep having the drinks for breakfast (or make my own liquid breakfast) because I love doing this and it works great for me in the morning.

Anyway, I've lost over 1kg this week and took the following measurements this morning...

Weight: 76.4kg
Fat: 29.4%
Water: 48.8%
Muscle: 30.4%

To compare with my progress since starting this blog...

Muscle %, 29.4, 30.2, 30.1, 30.3, 30.4, +1.0%
