Truth is, there are no quick-fixes.

(a) 1 point (b) 2 points (c) 3 points
Always aim for a specific target weight.
For example, if you are 200 pounds and aim to lose "about 50 pounds",
then set 190 pounds as your first target. (Then 180, 170 etc.)

of your chest, waist, hips, arms and thighs?

Always take your measurements before you
