[QUOTE="charlie000, post: 1990252, member: 500538"] Hi all, After recently suffering from an atrial fibrillation event, nature has finally got to me. I need to change. I want to be healthy, and be happy. [B]My body stats:[/B] [LIST=1] [*][B]Weight:[/B] 9G KG [*][B]Height:[/B] 5'7 [*][B]Age: [/B]26 [*][B]BMI:[/B] Well over 33 [*]Health conditions: Asthmatic, possible AFIB and Pre Diabetic [/LIST] [B]My weight and body:[/B] I am FAT. I do not look fat, the clothes I wear hide my fat very well and make me look smart. I look average, but the moment my shirt comes off there's a massive belly and bum. I am 30kg-ish over my ideal weight. That's about 5 stone! [B]My activity[/B] My activity levels are very low. I am a delivery driver so in and out of the van, which I jog to and back from customer's doors. Other than that it is limited. [B]My diet that I have planned:[/B] I am to follow the Newcastle Diet, but with a twist. I want to go low carb, and low calorie. I create my own homemade soups, these are vegetable based (non starch) but with chicken or lamb stock. I can't do vegetable soup on it's own, I can't bare the taste. [B]Snacks:[/B] I will snack on things like Radishes, cucumber without the skin, tomatoes. Is there anything else I can have? Any guides? [B]Progress[/B] The first few days I failed, in the first night, I felt serious hunger. I could not last, so I had a biscuit. On the second day, I had a single slice of Tuna sandwich, left over by another family member. Today is my official start date I am drinking about 3.5 litres of water per day, and 2-3 teas a day. I am to lose my weight and reach around 62 -64kg at the end. [B]Exercise:[/B] At the moment I am doing no exercise. But I am starting 30 min walks everyday. Can I make any changes or am I doing it right? I know I will become diabetic fully if I do not intervene now. [/QUOTE]
