My weight loss

[Dollylolly]

thought I'd update on my weight loss with the LCHF.
Hoping this works as I've not done it before.
I have lost about a stone and a half since beginning of Feb
I have had some treats thrown in as the change over was overwhelming in the beginning and scary to boot.

Hi @Dollylolly ..
Well done .. pretty **** good this LCHF stuff isn't it .. I've also lost just over 1 1/2 stone since early Feb .. and about the same as you still to go. I'll keep it up if you will

Hi and well done....

I started at 13 stone thinking it would be great to get to 12 but i thought it wasnt possible.

6 months later when I decided to buy scales and weigh myself I was 10 stone 7 lbs.

one extreme to the other, now I'm trying to gain back to around 11.5

I bet you feel much better, mentally sharper and just generally healthier than you did previously.

Recently I was obliged to have a new photograph for my work ID since I no longer look like the big guy in the original.

Hello and well done, I too have lost 1 1/2 stone since going Lchf in February when diagnosed, only another stone to go for me

Hi @Dollylolly, great going! Onwards and downwards I've another stone to go; not essential, but I'd like to get there anyway, just for me.

 

[Dollylolly]

I want in the middle range for weight and height which is 5ft 3 and 9st 7 not wanting to go lower as I'm over 50 not 21 when I was fine at 8st 7 I think I'll look scrawny.

How have you found easy or hard I was crawling the walls craving sugar the first week then I didn't care after that.

Hi @Dollylolly ..
To be honest, I think I have been very lucky .. LCHF covers pretty much all the stuff I like to eat and I have found it all fairly easy. I can't think of anything that I miss and that includes beer .. used to have 2 (sometimes 3) pints a day and now none. All that I have had is a glass of dry white wine with lunch twice since mid Feb. So all pretty straightforward really ...

I'll admit it I was a sugar junkie anything sugary and it was in my gob. So that first week was horrible but what I kept saying to myself was this
I do not want to be a blind, amputee on dialysis.
I watched that programme too with the guy that got his leg cut of and it scared me and I know it was the extreme side of it but it woke me up as I put my head in the sand for a bit till that day.

@Dollylolly
Your doing really well, I'm so jealous you got over your sweet craving, I'm still craving it since Feb, but I now have substitutes in pkace to keep me as sugar free as possible. I have decided to throw another thing in my mix and stopped smoking 4 days ago.... I just want cake now

Dark chocolate and berries and cream was my saviour.

Darker the better for the chocolate

I do look longingly at teacakes though. I don't buy them hecause I'd eat the box of them.
