If it's to be, it's up to me!

Right, I've been far too complacent recently (and it's only week 4 lol!) so I'm going to give you guys a chance to hopefully tell me what I'm doing wrong.

I'm also resigned to the fact that I might be taking the scenic route to weight loss, but if I am doing something wrong then I might be able to speed up those losses!
