Hi thanks for the comments everyone, gd luck to you all aswell on 2nd day now lol

Hello! I started for the first time last week, on my 5th day now. I did find the second and third day a bit of a challenge, I had a banging headache but knew this was probably the first signs of ketosis. I feel ok now though! Crossing fingers that this gets the weight off, I can't see how it can't if followed 100%! Good luck with your weightloss!

Good luck truckerlad, I am staring on monday

Hi Truckerlad, Looking at the Lighter Life website, it looks like you could aim for 12st 6lbs for a healthy BMI, however if you do a lot of exercise and build up muscle then you would be better going by a size of clothes that you want to fit into as muscle weighs heavier so throw's out the BMI calc. Here's a link to their website for the calculator if your interested BMI Calculator | Calculate your Body Mass Index | LighterLife I think a lot of people think the BMI calc is a bit low. So I'm realisically aiming for a bit higher than my ideal weight. Good luck, I hope it's going well for you

Good luck! I have been 'trying' to start since last Thursday. Other half did and he is doing really well. Not sure why I keep putting it off, it's the excuses that got me like this in the first place!
I'm 19.0 and 5'10. I would like to get to around 12.5, so a long way to go.
Going to try and start tomorrow.
If at first you don't succeed try try again?
Good luck for your weigh ins and well done

Hi everyone and thanks for the encouragement

So its now Tuesday evening (Started saturday just gone) I am still 100% going in and doing 20 mins fitness evolded on the xbox with weights a day (missed yesterday) I started this weighting 17'3 stone I bought some scales sunday just weighted myself, I know your only meant to do it once a week but meh

So im now 16'7.5 stone so thats a 9.5lbs lost!!!! Seriously I mean thats just 4 days

So everyone keep it up

(Think i've worked that out right)
Can that be right?? :/

Well done Truckerlad!

Cherrypieness - I'm sure you'll get the motivation you want. You and are are about the same height and weight so I know how daunting the task is.

Good luck all!

Well done Truckerlad, that's fantastic! Guys tend to lose the weight much quicker than girls, so it's probably right. What game are you doing on xbox? I wondered if any of the fitness games were good...

It's fitness evolved 2012 one using Xbox kinetic its quite gd but think I might sign up local gym

I might have a look at that one. I had tried the demo for the biggest loser game, but I'm also probably going to join a gym!

Hello and welcome I'm on day 3 of a restart I'm doing ws as I go to the gym I do need some sort of food throughout the day or I feel so light headed . Hope ur all having a great day xxx
