The FastDay Forum

Well, I had new fat at Xmas and lost it in 2 months so I suspected that new fat is easier to shift. My missus, however, who humoured me by doing 6:1 so we shared a common day (Tuesday, used to be pasta & tomato sauce) has in 14 weeks got rid of all her baby-weight (19 years old) and is down to a BMI of 19.4, lighter than she has been for 30 years probably. So - not all old fat is slow to shift. She is also setting PBs in her running, despite being the wrong side of 60...

All weight is hard for me to lose. The only time I have been below 200 pounds since I got pregnant 21years ago was from a bout of food poisoning that kicked in my IBD and almost landed me in the hospital. I dipped down, on what turned out to be the last day of my illness, to 195. Not a sustainable method of weight loss though, and I wouldn't recommend it.

For me it is all about finding a method of weight loss that I can sustain long enough to let go of the extra fat. For me this looks to be it!
