Weight / Fat loss

No. You need to create a calorie deficit.

Sorry, didn't make that clear. I realise you need to create a deficit to lose weight, I just wanted to check that people were adding exercise on. Didn't want to do that for a couple of weeks then have someone say 'no, those exercise estimates are way off' and realise I've been gaining weight.

yep i add exercise in, it's about 90% of the fun.

as i've said i want to loose 2lb per week my target was 1200 calories, so with a run in one direct 600 calories and cycle the other 200 i have been eating roughly 2000 calories and loosing weight at roughly 0.8kg per week over the last 4 months.

You remind me of a mate of mine: once he decides to do something he researches it thoroughly, plans it out carefully and goes through with it like a robot. Impressive willpower.

Now that I've added my ride home and had a sandwich for dinner, I'm still 700 down. If I manage a run in a minute it'll be even more. I'll get to have some more dinner...
