Re: fight the flab
Keep it up, 2399! It has gone very quiet in here, hasn't it. Have recent overseas holidays ruined all your plans? Perhaps you have each attained your target?
I popped over to my doctor's rooms a week or so ago about other problems, where he dragged me to the scales. I came in at 65Kg fully clothed - shoes 'n all.

Re: fight the flab
Nice steady downslope, finally, five years after shooting past the ten stone barrier, reach the magical target of 9 st 13 lb.
That's not a leopard!

Re: fight the flab
I started this thread back in July 2014 when I weighed near-enough 14stone and had a bmi of 25.5 - which wasn't disastrous, but put me firmly in the overweight sector of the NHS guidelines...
my target was 11.5 stone - which I did reach on january 26th this year...
between january and july I managed to re-acquire a stone - putting me up to 12 and a half, so I revived the thread...
I have now banished the flab and am 11st5lbs - which is the lightest I can remember myself being since leaving university... I have a bmi of 23.4, which is comfortable in the healthy weight zone.
so I have lost just over 2 and a half stone - 3 and a half if you count the stone that I had to lose twice!
moral of the tale... don't take your eye off the ball for too long - it creeps back on faster than it falls off!

Re: fight the flab
Since I started recording it in October last year I've lost 3.3 stones. It's kind of plateaued now - some weeks I put a little on / some weeks I take a little off. I still need to get back to working harder at it though.

Re: fight the flab
In January 2014 I set out to lose a stone (I was 13st 5lbs at the time.
Doing the 5/2 diet I got down to, in August, 12st 5lbs
After my surgery I went back up to 13st 3lbs in January
Now I'm back to running (fairly) regularly I'm hovering around 12st 8lb
Happy to stay around there.

Re: fight the flab
i'm willing to bet that even though you are a stone and half heavier than me - even taking into account your greater height - I have quite a bit more flab than you!Gary the Enfield wrote:In January 2014 I set out to lose a stone (I was 13st 5lbs at the time.

Re: fight the flab
Hello again, chaps and chapesses. I'm back after a six or seven week absence.
Monty will be happy to read that I am now below the featherweight boundary - well I was on the day I left hospital. 55.1Kg. Now I'm trying to pile on some weight as I'm nowt but a skeleton and try to regain a fair bit of lost muscle tissue via a hospital provided high protein regime.

You'll need to put quite a few shrimps on the Barbie then. Hope all is okay - I hadn't realized you were hospitalized.Dujon wrote:Hello again, chaps and chapesses. I'm back after a six or seven week absence.

Re: fight the flab
Is this a hoax? Surely no-one is sufficiently evil of spirit so as to go up to a complete stranger, who in their judgement is overweight, and hand them one of these 'fatshaming' cards? I'd throw the 4uckers onto the track!

Re: fight the flab
^ I hope not...
you remind me of summat I heard on the radio yesterday - they were talking about malnutrition in the UK - new figures say that treating malnutrition (in its under-nutrition sense) costs the NHS an estimated £19.6 billion a year and is only set to increase with an aging population and the rising cost of health and social care. Meanwhile, last year a study reckoned that obesity is a greater burden on the UK’s economy than armed violence, war and terrorism, costing the country nearly £47bn a year - generating an annual loss equivalent to 3% of GDP.
so - if those stats are anywhere near true - that's a total of about £67billion - and rising - that the NHS spends each year on obesity and malnutrition related healthcare.
