      the only way to lose weight is a healthy balanced diet and exercise you dont have to go to a gymn ,walk cycle be determined, how much do you weigh?

    HI - I actually gained weight on mine. But I understand you either gain or loose weight. I wouldn't worry about it. I gained weight due to excess eating, lost a load then it remained static. As long as it doesn't shift/gain i'm not fussed. Its stable.
