Mikey u r doing amazing congrats on ur amazing loses I'm now 31 lb down on week 7 x

For some reason, this week has been the week that people have really started to comment. Maybe I've bumped into a lot of people I haven't seen for a while but I'm getting comment after comment about how good I am looking and you know the best thing about it all is... I agree with them. I'm looking damned good and I know it!

That's the spirit!!

Ok so today I'm going to buy a pair of braces, cos having to buy new pants every week is just ridiculous!

That reminds me, I must get out to some shops, I currently have no trousers that fit, they all look like clowns trousers, I've been wearing shorts for the last week or so. Thankfully I have a job where wearing shorts is normal.

I want a job where I can wear shorts! I hate having to wear suits all the time

i'm having to rethink my goal weight. I actually set it based on a goal BMI of 25, being a 'healthy' BMI for my height. However, some people have pointed out to me that if I actually went down to 13 stone i'd look ridiculous and I think they might have a point, as I have always been large framed (and i dont mean that as a euphemism for fat, I mean genuinely very broad shouldered and a large chest, even when i was in 32 waist trousers). The last time i remember looking my best, back in my navy days, i was actually about 14 stone but... at my height that isnt in the "healthy" BMI range. I'm not really sure what to think

I have been reading a bit about BMI lately and it was only ever supposed to be a guideline. Apparently fat % is more important - I think you can get scales to measure this but I don't understand how they work. Probably best to get to 14 stones and then see if there are any fat bits left - not as scientific!

Sounds like a plan!

My target weight is also based on my BMI being 25, which would mean I need to lose another 10 kilo's. At the rate I'm losing now (a kilo a week) I just can't bear having to do this for another 10 weeks. I'm fitting into size 12/14 trousers, so I think I will stop when I get to fit into a 12 properly. I am at that point where it really is a massive trial sticking to the diet, not like the first couple of months where you see such a huge difference every month. I'll be honest, I'm tired of this now.

How long you been doing it? and have you seen a huge slow down in weight loss?

Weigh in day today. I'm feeling great, which s bad news cos I always lose most when I don't thinking lost anything !

Good luck for your weigh-in! Just cause you feel great doesn't mean it won't be a good one!!!
