I lost 20 pounds from January to May, but now I want to take off the extra fat, which I guess is about another 10 lbs. I’ve been trying to eat healthy and exercise regularly since going on holiday a month ago but without keeping a food diary and a calorie log I can’t do it. In fact, I’ve gained a couple of pounds.

So, here I go again. Day One: Pounds lost: 0.
