Likewise in the 18 stone range.... trying the meat and salad diet!

Forget the salad, you burn more calories eating it than you get from it!

Perfect for losing weight!

Well done Ade, I got summoned to the docs surgery a coupl eof months ago as I was 'nearing a certain age' . . ( Why can't they just say "You're an old git!!" ) . . . for a Height weight Blood Pressure, Blood test check up. . . . . Well I failed that one :evil:

While I knew I had put on a bit of weight (11st at 5'8") . . I was not expecting to be 12 st 6 . . or to have a Cholesterol level of NINE!!!! . . . So I went on a low cholesterol diet . . . . (Great until my daughter found out "Your a Fat B*st*rd!!" ) . . . and I'm now 11 st 6 . . . I'm due another check for cholesterol soon . . . should be fun.

Must try exercising as well . . . I'd like to be 10 st 7lb . . . with less of a 'bulge' at the front . . . I mean I can suck it in with the best of them, but I'd rather not have too.

Still it appears you've inspired a few of us to shed a few pounds

I'm going to do something positive after Xmas as I think I'm slowly expanding. Just haven't decided what Xmas.

Well I'm not setting out on a mission to preach to the forum about weight loss, but it can't be too difficult if I can do it. It doesn't really require willpower, which is just as well since I don't have any. I tried to quit the rolling weed last New Year - now that was tough and I only made it to the middle of April but I will try again.

Regarding diet, I've better than halved my alcohol consumption and I took the first month off completely. I was pleasantly surprised that I didn't really miss it, and inspired as the first stone fell off quite rapidly. I've cut down on bread and cheese and cut out nuts and nibbles. I'll still have a sausage sandwich (my favourite food in the whole world) but maybe only once a fortnight. I'm actually eating better than I did before, because I'm having breakfast every day when I regularly skipped that, I'm just eating more fruit and veggies but less junk.

Anyway, it's my fortnightly weigh-in today and pay-up time for Ann.


Keep it up Rob :thumb:


Incidentally, last weekend we bought a 17.5kg sack of wild bird seed. That was a fair old lump to carry from the shop to the car park (only about 200 yards), and then I worked out that's almost exactly what I've lost off my belly and have been carrying all day every day for quite some time!

:wha: I thought this topic had drifted into the mists of obscurity 5 months ago.

Well I lost the two stone I set out to, plus a few pounds more but put those few back on over Christmas and have kept them. Holding steady now and staying in a 34 regular trouser (down from a 36 stretch).

Others are doing well too, see here.

You started me on the right road Ade. I am 20Lbs lighter since the start of the year.
Looking at all the great food for ST 2013, I might just put a few back on. :-?

I fell at the first hurdle...got busy at work, no time to eat properly, still at 17stone. Kids are back at school now so I have no excuses. No booze during week, cut down on bread, exercise every day

That looks easy when you see it written down like that Rob. Hope it goes well.

Well done anyway.
