The lifestyle changes I have adopted over the last 30 days are only the start of my journey. I now need to set myself new goals to work towards. Along the way, I’ll want to incorporate some of the food and drink items I have missed, but that will need to be done sensibly. In this section, I’ll discuss these issues, and how I am coping with the changes.

I have increased weight training in the last week, so despite not seeing a weight drop, it could be due to an increase in muscle mass, balancing fat loss. Dont pay too much attention to the Fat Mass figures above, since they are very inaccurate (taken on bathroom scales).
