Well, other than helping me to lose 20 pounds in about 2 months (yay!!!), I recently had my yearly blood screening, and it was all good numbers across the board (which never happens)! The bad numbers that are now good are as follows (10/2016 values on left and 10/2017 values on right): BMI: 28.1 ---...

Well I am back in Sydney. Made my way through several hotel buffets over the weekend. Fortunately, I only went back for seconds once. I may lose a star though. Weigh in today is 102.1kg (224.6lbs). According to the tracker, I will crack 100kg on the 3rd of July but I'm happy either way about the end...

Moogie I went back and changed all my weigh-ins since I reached goal (close to three years now!!) to "maintaining". I had been marking them "trying to lose" but that was just silly vanity on my part, and I'm really not a vain person. I was perceiving first 7 stone and then 100 p...

Teddybear , it took me about 8 months to lose about 20 pounds. I can't say exactly since I didn't weigh - at all - when I started in March '13. I was in my acceptable range by November, '13, but didn't reach my final goal weight - 7 stone - till January. As mentioned before, I have decided my targe...

Hello, Teddybear . I am the smallest person on the forum (was tied with fatdog when she was around). In 2013 I lost about 20 pounds using a straight 5:2 WOE. I've been maintaining ever since, on 6:1 at first. Though I have weighed about 2 pounds more in 2015 than I did in 2014, even though I went ba...

I'm in. It's 1pm in Perth and so far I've just had tea and water. I've decided the best way to stay strictly to my 500 calories is to decide on what I am eating the day before. So today will be: 1.30pm Lunch 1: A small salad with fresh chilli and lemon (31 calories) 3.00pm Lunch 2: A half serve of v...

Hi everyone, thanks for all the thanks but it wasn't my idea, though I definitely need to make use of this thread! Lizbean raised the idea in Peebles thread on 102 fasts in a year, as a result of the discussion we had been having, and MaryAnn noted that it had been tried before, she thinks by cblasz...

And I thought I had a "wacky" childhood ! @wildmissus - I had the opposite problem - I was an only child and usually given just about anything I wanted !!! Not necessarily a good thing !!!

Peebles , can you really not fit an eating window into your lifestyle? I never thought I could but I'm giving it some serious thought now as I think it might be a way of eating well every day. I have a lot of 'symptoms' of a famine reaction so hopefully I can re-feed on healthy food every day then ...

Loving reading everyone's posts about "when they were young" I was very much into fitness, because that's what I did. Straight to aerobics after work, home and a bowl of pasta with cheese grated on it. I was about 11 St I hardly ever weighed myself but was a standard size 12. I was a brida...

Sassy1 I'm having a chuckle about 'when we were young and didn't have a weight problem'. I thought I had a weight problem from when I was 14! I dieted like my mother (my sister never did, just me). I was about 60 to 64kg!!! Or less! So I have spent a huge part of my life thinking I was fat. This al...

I thought I had a weight problem when I was a teen and weighed 115 lbs, but mostly because my mom and aunt and grandmother were so huge and I lived in terror of ending up like them. As it turned out, I inherited my metabolism from the other side of the family who are thin but have a busted blood sug...
