The swings are a lot smaller now that I've lost so much mass, too.
I've literally lost 1/4th of myself since this started. lol

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

I know I don't drink enough water on most days. I drink too many energy drinks (sugar free of course).


247 this morning. Hoping to see 245 by next weeks weigh in.

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

I just completed week 3. I was down 4.6 lbs to 226.0, for a total of 12.4 lbs. I have 46 lbs to go.

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

Good work, Duane!

I'm back at 249 again today. Ate a little heavy last night, but it was mostly veggies and rice.

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

Not sure how I've been doing while in Sweden. Not too bad I hope.

Back home tomorrow and we'll see.

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

Holding steady at 248 for another week.:(

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

188.0 yesterday. I had 3 donuts for dinner and then made apple banana bread last night, which was freakin delicious.
I haven't hit the scale yet today. :)

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

just got back from the nutrician, she's very pleased with my progress, I am not because I want to lose more and quicker. But I lost little over 30lbs in less then 2 months, so I should be happy.

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

You're doing great, Ferdie. :tu
It takes time. I lost at the rate of like 1.6 pounds a week for what seemed like forever. Now I pretty much bottomed out and ran out of fat to lose.
I've been back at Physical Therapy and working out and putting on muscle now, so I put on a few pounds.
If I can get ripped and land at 185, that's where I want to be.
Looks good at this point. :tu

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

You should be happy,DF. thats good! I am struggling, what kind of advice did she give you? I need to lose weight and dont know what to do.

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

she just adviced me (and helped me) to change my eating pattern

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

if you could tell me how/what that would be great, i can't afford a dietician/nutritionist right now ;/

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

make sure you have breakfast, one slice of dark bread with light topping (20+ or 30+ cheese for example), 2 or 3 slices of dark bread with light topping for lunch and a small but healty and light dinner. No soft drinks anymore, no snacks. Drink lots of water, 2 glasses of milk and 2 pieces of fruit a day.

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

Great work, Ferdinand:tu

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

now i want a piece of pumpernickle

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

Went to the gym for an hour yesterday. Still can't get the numbers to come down. Hovering at 248 for three weeks straight.

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

Even with all the walking I did in Sweden I managed to gain weight and still have it on. Haven't weighed in today, but I've been around 242 or so since I got back.:(

Time to get a pair of sneakers and get my butt moving.

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

Andy, go to the store and get five cases of this stuff...

Keep a giant cup full all day long and never quit drinking all day long.
You'll be a 98 pound weakling in a few months. :)

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

I try to drink at least a liter or more of water every day.
Two liters when I exercise.

Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland
 

I drink 8 times that on slow days. For whatever reason I can drink the grape water on ice, but have a hard time drinking just plain water.
I leave the grape water out so it's warm and it melts my ice cubes to where it is watered down to nothing.
I go through so many ice cubes that my ice maker can't recover unless I go away for a couple days.
I just went for a walk. I covered about 500 miles in just under an hour.
I'm going to die now.
Right after I drink a 30 ounce cup of grape water. Lol :)
