@jsmithshields: Week 1 done and 4kg gone with it. Yes, it’s normal to see a big drop in the first week of a diet phase. And no, that 4kg isn’t all fat. A lot of it is water, glycogen and less food sitting in the gut. But Week 1 isn’t the hard part. Weeks 2 and 3 are where I see most people fall off. Week 1 is full of motivation. You’re excited, locked in and seeing the scales move. Then the motivation wears off. That’s the part you need to plan for. Because if your plan only works when you’re motivated, it’s not much of a plan. Week 2. Let’s work.
