cheers Ron

I've had cereal this morning, 2 tangerines and an apple for lunch, and I'm just off the exercise bike, which I did an hour and fifteen minutes on. I'll have some fish for my dinner tonight.

I weighed myself last Friday and I was 12st 12lbs, I'll stick the weekly weigh-in on here each week. Here's hoping I've lost so far.

^^^^ Too much tatty pot (Nap)

180 sit ups, 120 press ups lost 1lb in 3 days, so looking ok so far

Thats muscle building, not fat loss, you'll end up putting on weight or losing weight extremely slowly

Not a lot to report the past couple of days. Kept snackless but for a slab of Christmas cake that accidentily fell in my mouth just now :( Nevertheless, weigh-in day tomorrow, and I'm pretty sure something must have shifted - counting up the food I would normally eat in the week but haven't runs into 4-5000 calories conservative effort. And then there's the 19 press-ups I've done (over 3 days)

Hate to say this, but watch the Paul Mckenna prog on Living Friday night - he'll repeat the Monday to Thursday conclusions. You could even listen to the intro on Living+1 at 9 tonight. Or the end few minutes.

His stuff - most of it probably not thought up by him, mercifully - is based on the fact our brains are a load of old rubbish inherited from fish, reptiles and ne'er-do-well mammals. Illusionists and magicians have exploited its deficiencies in their acts. Brain scientists are now cooperating with these entertainers (see last weeks New Scientist). Anyway, McKenna uses a variety of techniques known to fool the brain with the aim of losing weight. And you don't have to diet.

15 stone 3 :)

First weigh-in and I've lost 3 lbs, down to 12st 9lbs. Happy days!

I'm going to keep a record here, so...

Week 1 (2-9 Jan): 12st 9lbs (3lb loss).

well done lads
Fat Fighters we are

wd all. group hug :P

Two rolls smeared with marge for breakfast. Trying to veer away from too much bread, as doorstep sandwiches are a weakness, but I had two apples for breakfast yesterday and I think I overdid the acidy sweetness a touch.
A Greggs Prawn mayo bap for lunch, but this was washed down with a stout 1 hour walk. I discovered this cycle map of the area in the newsagents, which gives distances between car parks, intersections etc. along this track I'm taking my walks. And it seems I did 4 1/2 miles for my hour, which isn't too shoddy, although I ended up hobbling like a penguin towards the end, because I was wearing a pair of these vile trendy urban slip on hybrid things rather than a pair of trainers, and as a result I've got a big bastit blister on the ball of each foot. Wish I'd listened to Lieutenant Dan's Forrest Gump monalogue more carefully now :(

Anyway, end of the week can't be **ked cooking well I can't either Friday time, so M&S pre packaged shiite for tea. On the plus side, will be able to gawp at the calories on the packaging.

And mein gott I'm looking forward to a drink. 5 bottles Becks last Saturday, so can't go above that. Was looking into G&T, and discussing this on bf chit chat isn't particularly good for my manliness I know, but for 500 calories those bottles work out at (this website http://www.weightlossresources.co.uk/calories/calorie_counter/alcohol.htm has 550ml of Stella at 221 calories so 1375ml Becks is 2 1/2 of those which makes 552.5 cals, then bring down to 500 allowing for different brand and being pessimistic in the hope I get a pleasant surprise).

Er, where the **k was I? Oh yes, girly drinks, that's right. Well the whole thing stemmed from the fact that we've got slimline tonic in atm, which is only 4.5 cals per 250ml (I recall glancing at a bottle of full fat schweppes a while back and there was 2 kilos of lard per 50mls in the full fat version). And so two double gin and tonics would roughly half tomorrow's calorie intake from booze.

Ok I've taken that too far. Just move you're fat ass a bit more lard boy, and you can have your beer :D

plenty of fat though.

thank you flea

Hello all, good going so far I trust.

5 foot 11, medium build, 15st1lb on Jan 3. 14st 6lb this morning. (-9lb)
Target 12st.
Have been pushing 17st in the past, down to 13st once but bounced off that back to obese again.
Shipped in some dumb/barbell and weights a couple of months ago, and have sit up bench, been doing regularly as I want to bulk up and lose fat. Should probably get some cardio stuff going too but haven't yet.

Two biggest sins, Mackie D's and confectionary cut out for a month minimum (hopefully).

Good luck with it all, mind over matter imo!

anybody got any other ideas for a healthier brekkie?

i just bought a blender to make bfast smoothies:

skimmed milk
bananas
strawbs
oats

LOVELY

v filling and good for slow release energy

Reasonable weekend. 4 Becks's on Saturday, so one less than last weekend. Also just one piece of naan bread rather than the 3 or 4 I had last week. Look at the calorie content of naan and you'll see how pertinent this point is.

Yesterday skipped breakfast in order to treat myself to cheese on toast for lunch. Went to a thing late afternoon. Had a slice of quiche, a small triangle of ham sandwich and a piece of cake. Thought it was slippery slope. However, skipped tea but for a sliver of Feta cheese and two crackers, so quite a good day in the end.

Feeling fitter and slimmer. Can see my adams apple (maybe I'm just going through puberty) and definitely more muscle around my arms and shoulders. The sit up/press up/dumbell regime is getting much easier, and I've increased reps a tad. Need to find some new additions to the schedule.

Going down south for a 40th on Friday, back Sunday. Can't see myself not drinking like a parched chub tbh, although I can hold back on the food unless there's a big sit down meal at a restaurant or something.

Weigh in will have to be Thursday. Would like to be less than 15 stone ideally, but will have to have a crise d'exercise this shortened week to hit the target. Phantom skipping is calling...

ttt.

i havnt lost any weight but to be honest ive been eating loads, except the loads ive been eating now is more healthy stuff instead of choclate bars etc and microwave meals so i might die fat still but might live a bit longer

I have just got to the having lost 2 stone (since mid July) mark. :)

15 stone dead
not bad on the way
cant give up drinking tho
