Eddie's W8 day

[FXST01]

Well, for the last three weeks or there abouts, I have been stuck on 98.6, finally this morning I'm a whopping 98.3
Hope this is the start of more loss!

Remember when that was a nothing result? Yes it is so much harder to lose it near the end...it certainly is character building! You're doing well...keep grinding it out.

This morning 97.5 During the week i went to the cupboard that holds the shirts I haven't worn in years and now they fit. Although my wife asked what was I doing in that cupboard? (oh the support).

[Blitz]

Eddie...are you trying to tell us you were in the closet?

Wives don't like it when we get into their territory...just like we don't like them fiddling with our tools. Having said that; I must admit that I did the same. It's great to try out your old stuff and see how you are going. Then there is the day when it all starts to fit again! But do as I did...wait to your wife is not at home.

0.8kg is a good number. Keep the good work going and soon you'll be chucking out those shirts because they are too baggy...that day will come!

Ding Dong, Me again 96.9

500g to 1kg per week is the recomended weekly loss to keep it off permanently so good on you....

Good job...guess it is great seeing the other side of the hill eh? Plateaus can really mess up the mind. You have done really well to power though all that.

[Miss D]

well done on your loss

[FXST01]

well done on your loss

Thank you Miss D and thanks Blitz for the continued support.

I must report that this morning's weigh was at 95.5 after weeks of going no where just hovering around 97 - 99.

[Blitz]

Good work Eddie!

Press on...after a plateau is a window of opportunity - don't let it slip by you!

[FXST01]

95.4 this morning, forgot to do it yesterday.

For better results you may want to review your habits. Here is a short checklist that you may find helpful:

Are you upping your work rate enough on your exercise?
Have you unconsciously increased your snacks?
Have your potion sizes increased without you noticing?
Have you lost focus or drive?

These are some of the things that sometimes slip by at this stage of our journey. Just something to be aware of.

Keep going. It's a hard slog but worth the effort. You are doing well.

Howdy all,

Well I'm back after a bit of break, weight slowly sneaking back up.

2nd week of new diet 109.5 that's 2 off.

[Blitz]

Good to see you back.
It is only a set back and never a failure if you keep on trying...and learning.
Good work for getting back on the horse - now gallop that old nag to victory!

Successful weight loss is about diligence - and keeping it off (maintenance) is about vigilance.
A key idea that has helped to keep me on track is the thought that losing, gaining and then re-losing is harder work than just losing and keeping it off. When I was losing weight I realised just what a waste of effort it was to claw back gained weight that I had lost.
The time spent re-losing that weight could have been better spent losing more weight rather than standing still and spinning my tyres.
As a consequence, I made a special effort to make sure that I never let the ground that I gained (or should that be 'lost'? ) slip away from me - daily.

Let's get it back to under 100kg as quick as you can.
You know that you can (because you've done it before)...now do it except this time - keep it off!
Go Eddie!
