seeing as I started this i had better declare then. Jan 1st I was 134kg or 294.8 pounds or 21st 6 hmmm.
my target this year is 45 kg /99 pounds / 7st 1pound. Hmmmm.
This was prompted by a series of MRI scans for the nackerback and I saw a line of white on the screen... yup fat. Buddha only knows what my visserole fat is like !!
January 8th I was 131 kg so lost 3 kg / 6.6 pounds so well chuffed especialy as mrs ba only lost 2 pound.. go ALAN GO ALAN [ not that I'm competetive or anything, like]
I didn't throw away christmas foods as that would be a waste....... so I binged out in december
I now use a smaller plate and don't pile it up even with vegies. I read all the packets to keep the sugar content under 5%. I also look at the calories and try to keep them under 2000 a day for a man, 1700 for mrs ba.
it's an eye opener if you do. 5% is the max for a diabetic diet and if you look at "low fat" products you will find that they are indeed low fat but very high in sugar. Have a look at the labels and for the 100g line the sugar for me has to be under 5% or it doesn't go in the basket.
usual things like oily fish 3 times a week, 5 fruit and veg a day and all that.
I don't do exercise.. simples. the most exercise I get is getting out of and into bed.
I also watched a programme last week on the BBC called 10 things you need to know to lose weight and it was incredibly interesting.
Things like high protien breakfasts keep hunger pangs away longer, eat you food as a soup as it stays in the stomach longer, the plate size, fat burning after exercise etc.If you can get i player I'd recomend watching it as it was really good.
I'm supposed to be 11.5 to 12.5 stone but I recon I popped out weighing more than that! still if I can get down to ever 14 st then I'd be happier with my appearence and my wedding weight of 24 years ago......hmmmmm.
