Re: Newcastle study- new guinea pig
Hi Patch don't be so hard on yourself you did do the whole 8 weeks and got a great result.
You wanted to know start and finish points so here goes I have been diagnosed about 3 1/2 years, never been on medication.
start weight 239 lbs = 17st 1 lb (I was 20st 6 lbs 6 years ago)
finish weight 206 lbs = 14st 10 lbs
loss 33 lbs = 14%
Didn't do much exercise as I suffer from the old chestnut 'mind is willing but body is weak' :roll:
I hope to change that on this next phase. I am going to try and rope in as many mates as I can to come and join me to do a little exercise, which will help to motivate me to do the same.
Hope this helps you as we were at similar weights and losses through-out.
regards Diane
