So far my thread has been counter productive, oh no!

 

 

Hoping for a success story?!

I was 105kg when I posted last. And am the same again! After peaking at 110. Got a new regime and a new incentive though so those numbers will go down!

Funny, I just posted this on Facebook....

 

So, day one of operation Vicky Pollard to Victoria Beckham, or 7 days to my guest slot on 'The Only Way to Marbella'..... I may have left it a bit late to go from looking 4 months up the stick to stick thin, but my first semi-committed fasting day has consisted of a nectarine for breakfast, a weight watchers rice in a bag contraption I found in the freezer for tea (which exploded twice in the microwave, how is that even scientifically possible?) 4 cups of coffee with only 2 sugars, 3 quality street, 2 pieces of fudge (ok, maybe 3, but it was rum and raisin so with the nectarine that's obviously 4 of my 5 a day) and a pint of Robinson's. (Is that my 5th fruit?) 15 hours in and I'm already doubting that this diet is going to be quite as effective as first hoped....

 

I need to shift a bit, and get back into condition... 10 years of sitting at a desk, quitting smoking (I've just temporarily taken it back up again to try to wean myself off junk food, I found the fags far easier to knock on the head bizarrely) and a resurgence in the social acceptability, and hence 'availability', of cider, have seen me put on a couple of stone round the middle and suffer tragic upper body muscle wastage.

I'm 33 next month and just round the corner from finding it virtually impossible to get back in shape so it's now or never for me!

People claim that, but if your digestion was slow you would loose weight not gain it and its actually been show that the obese have faster metabolisms than the slim.

 

The laws of thermodynamics are pretty simple, no one came out of the concentration camps saying "I was on one cup of rice a day and never lost an ounce"

cutting out carbs entirely is not a good idea. Im surprised a doctor would recommend that

first it was a surgeon not a doctor also second all i did was use his advice and lost 8.6 stone it works period i did,nt come to any harm as my body used its own fat to cope with the less carbs i know you cant keep away from not eating carbs it just helps to quit while your getting you weight down once you hit you target just creep the carbs up a touch as your body will use its own fats to turn back into sugars/carbs etc you will see and feel loads better
