Hi all,
I am Kerry, aged 36 and 4st over weight.I lost 6 stone in 9 months on the cambridge diet but couldn't maintain, went back to bad eating habbits and put 4st back on over 3 years so time to do it the hard way, learn good eating habbits and get healthy.
I joined a boot camp style class in January after being turned down for a hysterectomy as my BMI was 40. My doc says I have to get it down to 35, so I joined a fitness class called 5 star fit camp. It is completely out of my comfort zone and I could of cried after my first session as I struggled at ever exercise, I have signed up for 6 months and lost 7lbs in my first 4 weeks. Then my weight loss stopped 
So I bought the fitbit to help me track everything and try and get my head round what my body is doing.
So here's what I do:
Fit camp 3 times a week 1 hour HIIT type exercises
couch to 5k app (30 mins running program) 3 times a week leaving 1 day to rest
Trying to eat as clean as I can so very little carbs if any they are brown, no dairy, no alcohol.
I don't drink tea or coffee anyway so thats not an issue
Food:
Breakfast: fresh fruit salad or 1 whole grapefruit hot water and lemon slice
Lunch: salad leaves, 1 chicken breast, lemon juice dressing
Dinner: 1 chicken breast, 1 bell pepper, 1 onion, handful of mushrooms, baby corn and passata made into some sort of soup with either herbs or spice
I also snack on 1/2 gluten free macaroon a day.
I try and hit my water target but I really struggle and I know that is a downfall so I am really trying to get on top of it.
I am losing inches, my clothes don't fit and my fitness levels have improved so much and I know this is what is really important but the scales have to move to get the operation I need.
So any ideas of where I am going wrong, I know I have more cals going out than in and that is what is meant to shift pounds surely. Maybe my poor body has gone into shock??
