Weekly weigh in - Fridays

[Resurgam]

Wow @Resurgam that's a fantastic start you have made! Tremendous!

Thank you - though it is all down to the low carb. I was never able to lose weight on 'normal' diets, even though my doctor had me eating some silly amount of calories per day - I think it got down to 500 before he went ballistic and told me that I was lying and cheating on his diet and I was not worthy of his care. You can imaging my shock when I found Dr Atkins and started to lose weight rapidly - so fast that I had to eat more to slow it down to a sensible rate.

Well Done on your weight loss @jonbvn I bought a New pair of Trousers a few weeks ago, and It's a brilliant feeling to get into a size smaller Trousers.
@Resurgam - Hi , Have you thought about LCHF diet (Low Carb High Fat) that is popular with forum members? Here is the link:

Im finding LCHF, IF and plenty of exercise are really doing the business for me. Averaging around 2kg/week loss. Like you i have a cocern that the loss may be too rapid. However, i am just not that hungry that i want to eat more. I may have to consider stopping IF since LCHF is now part of my DNA.

Weighed today 9st 2.9lbs so a loss of just over half a pound so a nice stable week

I found 2kg a week was OK - it was the 1Kg a day that was too much for the system to cope with. Low carb, if done with care is so easily tweaked to give full control of the results. I weighed and listed everything for quite a while, food and exercise that is, and found that all the advice on weightloss I had ever seen was wrong.

With my fitbit and myfitnesspal i have become quite OCD regarding my diet and exercise. Some people in my office think I'm nuts but some are coming around to my way of thinking. I work on the 5th floor of an office block and i now have two colleagues climbing the stairs with me in the morning and after lunch.

I bought myself a trampoline and went and bounced twice a day - I will have to get back to that now my knees are feeling better.

Weighed in this morning - have gained 1kg this week - not good news but I had a week where I had more carbs than I was having and believe this is the result - so here is to a new week and another chance to improve my results.

 

[yiannis_]

I had my weekly weigh in yesterday 117.2kg down from 144.9 in may but only 1.5kg down last week which was week 4 of ND800 diet.

 

[mo53]

Well done! @yiannis_

 

[mo53]

Good morning 159 again! I'm stuck! I need to move from here next week and would prefer down lol

 

[callyandy]

After some quite strenuous walking this morning weighed in at 111.3kg down just under 23kg from the beginning of September. Will be buying some smaller size clothes shortly

Fantastic numbers!! Well done.

 

[callyandy]

Diagnosed ten days ago, my weight was 248lb today it is 243lb.
My HgA1c was 91 - I think - was rather a shock so went a bit quivery. It was BAD - so am eating low carb with the usual good results.

Well done, Fabulous effort, keep it up!!!!

Golly, that's harsh from your doctor!! I suggest a change in diet is not the only thing you should look at....

A fantastic steady weight loss. Well done

 

[callyandy]

91.8kg on Wednesday, that's 10.2 kg since 30 September, 10% of my starting weight.

I can get back into my old size 18 jeans. Very chuffed.

The number of colleagues climbing the stairs with me is steadily increasing. Will weigh in later today after finishing my morning walk.
