I joined a two-week challenge to lose 5lb - not that I would hope to lose 5lb as I'm a slow loser, but just to make me try harder! In order to make that work, I decided to log food and exercise, and to use a 5:2 approach. For me that means 5 days of eating in line with my normal (new) way of eating, and 2 days on significantly reduced calories, in the range 700-800. It's quite easy to do, did in with my life-style and has yielded good results for me in the past. So I lost a bit this week. I hoped it might be more, but it will do! Going to do the same again next week, and just signed up for another similar 2-week challenge to follow on from this one.
