A pound off for this week. It is becoming quite a war of attrition trying to get those pounds off in order to reach my new target goal of 165lbs. I am in no big rush, however. I am just glad to be back in the 12st zone for the first time in 9 years!
When I look back at my weight chart on here, I was a wapping 245lbs back in April 2014 when I signed up to MFS. And right up until the start of January of this year I had lost only 35lbs (there were plenty of dips and peaks along the way of course). And that was despite spending hours on treadmills, exercise bikes, jogging, weight lifting etc. It all came undone because I was still eating more than I was burning off: so all that hard work exercising was relatively futile in the long run.
But since the start of this year, I have lost almost the same amount (31lbs) in only 5 months! And I didn't bother with treadmills or weights, just an exercise bike and more walking, gardening and DIY activities.
But the key achievement is food intake - keep on top of that and you will lose weight far faster.
So in summary:
from April 2014 to January 2020 (almost 6 years) - weight loss of 35lbs
from January 2020 to May 2020 (5 months) - weight loss of 31lbs
Food intake is key; everything else is secondary.
