Some new milestones

by Chris P on 12 May 2013, 08:37

Have done my weigh in today, instead of tomorrow, as going on holiday (first week away from strict fasting - yikes!). It may be a slightly false loss, as it's the first time I've weighed in after a fast day, but gives me the 2 stones on this diet and puts my BMI in the "merely" overweight category for the first time.

Yesterday, I went and bought some new trousers, as my current ones are all hanging off me - thank goodness for belts to save my modesty! Anyway, bought size 16 jeans - it has to be at least 10 years since I could get into that size, so that was amazing

Six weeks in

by Chris P on 13 Mar 2013, 17:03

I started this WOL on 24/1/13, just over six weeks ago (started on a Thursday, but have weekly weigh ins on a Monday) and so far I have lost 14lbs, which I'm absolutely delighted with. I've never been able to lose weight so fast and consistently before. I've mostly been doing 4:3 and have been counting calories on my feed days, so that I keep control of how much I eat.
Only negative effects I have had is on two occasions I have had a headache on a fast day, but both times it was during my period, so think that was probably the reason. Otherwise I've not experienced any problems.
I've also lost 2" off my waist and 3" off my hips. A couple of pairs of my trousers are now falling off me.
