christ, you've lost a bit Mal!

I've been hard at it since wednesday, so thanks for the welcome. Haven't seen much on the scaled yet though. Prolly shouldn't weigh myself everyday, but wednesdays are my weeklies, so we'll see how I go!

[shedthemkgs]

Hey guys! Haha feels like we're hanging out at the BBQ here!
My name's Ant, I'm 20 and currently weigh 112.8kgs...will be good to talk to other guys about weightloss!
I'm starting to get serious again, I mean I jog every night for about an hour but I wanna get into the gym and do some high intensity cardio stuff...but I'm worried that my skin wont recover...I have a habit of losing weight quite fast (max of 5kgs a week) and am not sure if this is good for my body or not...???

[Gordz]

well the figure floating around these forums for 'safe' loss so the skin can recover is .5kg - 1kg per week. But these forums are about 90% female so that could differ for us blokes. I'm sure I could handle 5kg a week though.. U've gone from 130 to 112, exactly my intention. hows your skin and how long did it take you?

[shedthemkgs]

Yeah i've noticed that too. I never really gave the whole "skin" thing a thought... Took about 4 months I guess, actually I think it was a bit less. I don't really know how to judge whether I am going to have issues with loose skin or not. Thinking about it now, I think I will... I'll take some "confronting" photos tonight and whack em up for people to judge.
It is wicked that I found this forum.

[Gordz]

I'd be interested to see your photos.. might re-inforce the "take it slow and steady" factor for me, Because at the moment I just want it all gone asap

[matchbox]

hey guys, don't mean to jump in but you're right:
girls can safely lose 0.5-1kg a week
guys can safely lose 1-2kg a week

you can continue the bbq now

[shedthemkgs]

Haha! Thanks for that matchbox:)

[shedthemkgs]

Lexi lol

[Gordz]

Nah, I gave up barbeques for the greater good

[shedthemkgs]

BBQ's are the devil...a tasty devil! Oh god, just remembered that xmas is coming up, xmas lunch! Gotta be in control lol! No eating half the leg of ham:P

[Gordz]

I'm only having my kiev on rice. We never seem to ever have spreads or anything so i know for a fact I won't be over eating. Its just the 4 hours on the train sitting still i'm worried about

[shedthemkgs]

Oh lucky you! Where are you heading? We're doing it at mine this year, for the first time, so it should be interesting...4 hours of sitting on a train is crapola mate! Make sure the ipod is charged and ready to go!

[Gordz]

don't own an ipod =(

But i do have censored on my phone. If only it was real money... kickass. Headed from melbourne to country victoria.

Wish I could afford a replacement engine for the ute. Don't suppose you know anyone in melbourne with a spare BA straight 6 motor?

[shedthemkgs]

I have no idea what you just said, car talk is jiberish to me haha. Nah mate, don't know anyone in Melb.

[Gordz]
