AAAARRRRGH!!!!

After only losing 1lb in a fortnight, the last 2 weeks I have lost 2lbs again. This has left me EXACTLY 0.2lbs above my first Target. Even going for a pee didn't bring the scales down.

Frustrated!:D

Dave.

you keep at it and that is important. you are still losing!
congratulations!

keep strong, you are doing great!

Hey Dave
So close and yet so far . . . not long to go . . . you'll get there . . . sadly unlike the English team . . . commiserations. Haven't been following the games too closely - timing is wrong and other distractions keeping me busy at present.

Stick to your plan and we'll see you posting that first target success soon I'm sure. YEEHAH! for when you make it.

Dave, I have sometimes used you (with no identifying info of course) when I have run tutorials for med students in their pre-clinical years.

I have made the point that here is an example of a guy who is doing everything right - portion control, talking with his health care team, knowing the calorie content of his food and (most important), determination. The students are usually impressed with that.

I am as well :D.

Despite it not being a Weigh-in day I had to jump on the scales, being 0.2lb over my target on Saturday. I have lost 2.2lbs in 5 days! So I am ready to reveal where I came from and where I am.

145 days ago, after a fall breaking my ribs, I weighed 243lbs/110.5kg. Now, after cutting out junk, calorie counting and writing down everything I eat and drink, I have broken 200lbs! I weigh 198lbs/90kg and have lost 45lbs/20.5kg. That is a loss of 18.5% of my bodyweight. My waist, at greatest measurement has gone from 48 to 42 inches. 40 inch trousers are a little loose, 38s a little tight.

I still have a way to go, but this milestone feels good.

Dave.

Well done Dave! :D

Good job Dave - congrats :D!

wow dave!
That is awesome!
YOu have worked so hard to do this and your hard work is paying off.
Keep at it we are cheering you onward.

We're going to have to give you a new moniker: "Amazing Dave".

Savor you success and enjoy the well deserved treat you had planned for that milestone.
