Re: 2011 Weight Loss Inspiration Group

Wow, that's amazing Conf! 2 1/2 Stone!!!! Well done you. The diet sounds interesting...just Googled it.
Makes a lot of sense to me from what I've read.

The keeping it off can be the hardest part I think, Cymru, I think once the new diet becomes second nature rather than an effort, you've made it. I went for years without taking milk, and my weight (and IBS!!!) was stable. The milk crept in again when I met my husband, as he liked filter coffee with cream, and I got a taste for it. Back came the IBS and weight, slowly after a time so it crept up on me. Not any more!!
I do worry about getting enough calcium though, so I try and get it in other ways in food, rather than supplements which can be dangerous.

Re: 2011 Weight Loss Inspiration Group

Well done Shep hmm i haven't noticed that in the control panel

Hi Cymru, glad to hear you're managing to keep it off, not an easy thing!

Well i'm rather pleased with myself this week, i've lost 35.5lb since last May, 26lb of which i've lost in the last 10 weeks thanks to paleo/primal. I still can't believe it when i look in the mirror

I've been ignoring this thread as I was cared to check! However despite eating and drinking for England or should I say Wales , I have kept off the weight that I had lost.
However, my body shape is changing and the weight is migrating to my middle. If only you could dod walk using your stomach!

Pity all the weight being lifted from our shoulders on AAD doesn't show on the scales

Thanks for the encouragement Conf and everyone..for some reason this thread hasn't been updating in my control panel, along with some others..does anyone else find that?

Well I was doing really well till I fell last weekend, since when it's been a bit up and down as I've had little excercise, picking up now though and my total loss is now 6lbs! Yea! Not had any milk in my tea or coffee since day 1, which makes a big difference. Not having a baked potato for lunch helps too LOL.

Re: 2011 Weight Loss Inspiration Group

Another 1lb off this week.

At least it's coming off...a bit too slowly...but at least I haven't put anything back on.

Re: 2011 Weight Loss Inspiration Group

I have always struggled with weight especially while going through the menopause, i started menopause when i was 36 and gained about 2 stone which never did go , but i am now 47 and have just finished the menopause and i must say with only a few symptoms , and without even trying i have lost over half a stone .
I think the main thing i noticed recently was that i have suddenly gone off sugar and just stopped taking it in tea , really strange because i used to love tea with sugar, maybe something to do with the menopause who knows
I'm happy though that the weight is now coming off , especially for my son's wedding in 3 weeks time

Re: 2011 Weight Loss Inspiration Group

Only lost 1lb again this week, though I'm happy IF didn't give me that 1lb back from last week!
