50lb Summer Challenge

Just trying to stay under 1500 cals a day (aiming for 1200) and walking as much as I can. Usually 6-9 miles most days. Only drinking water, pretty much quit bread.

The walking not only burns more calories but also makes me less likely to cheat as I don't want to undo my hard work by cheating with my calories
 
Cheers, will do :)
 
I don't really feel like I look much different yet, my extra chin is a bit less obvious and I've had to re tie the draw strings on my trousers but to look at I still look pretty massive. Main difference is in how energetic I feel. I started my diet on the same day as I was diagnosed with sleep apnoea so a lot of my extra energy is probably due to not feeling totally knackered all the time. Can't imagine how it's gonna feel when I've lost the same again. I think being really impatient is helping me lose it as I literally can't wait to see how I'm gonna look and feel. I've been overweight since I was a kid so I don't even know what the slim version of me looks like
 
Big Ben my starting weight 3 weeks ago was 19 st 13 and I've lost 4 lb in three weeks and I'm 43 so time not on my side .. Bottle up what you got at the min hon cos it's the magic potion we all want.. Well done x
 
Ben.
.I know exactly how you feel.
As I've mentioned before I too had sleep Apnoea and that is what spurred my losses along..

But don't panic it took me a good 3 stone before it was even slightly noticable.

Also Linda please don't think that time isn't on your side.. I'm almost 42 and managed almost a 12 stone loss in a year.. Age is just a number xxxxx

Just enjoy the journey xx

Hi, only 1.5lb loss this week for me. It's my worse week since starting S.W and I really need to kick my butt into action this week. Need to start seeing the loses I was having before I had a 2 week break for my operation

Hi everyone I've not updated the last week as I've been struggling a bit and gained last week. I lost 3lbs today (only really 1 after my gain) so that's now 5lbs in total lost for me. Could someone please update me as I'm on my phone. Well done to you all you're doing amazingly very inspiring :) xx
