19lb lost so far!
I dropped another 2lbs.
Bringing me down to 16 7 (231)
Mum seems to have given up. It's hard, becuse she never loses much, but when she goes off the rails she doesn't gain much either. She put on 1lb when they were house-sitting, but she says she had cream cakes and chocolate every day. So it's hard to incentivise her.
I suppose I can only work on myself.
No dramatic loss from the Alli or being teetotal.
Will have to see next week.
I have none of the official side effects of Alli - instead I have the opposite. Instead of loose stools I find myself barely passing anything. I'm doing little cat turds (which is also what they smell like). I might try some fibre tablets. If the fibre tablets work then I'll know I'm just not eating enough fruit & veg, and I'll up that. It's just not my first move because I'm completely satisfied with what I'm eating - it seems wrong to shovel more in for the sake of it. I will if necessary though.
For the record, my stats:
Weight from 17 12 to 16 7 (19lbs)
BMI from 39.2 to 36.4
Weight of body fat 7 1 to 6 (loss of 15lb fat)
% body weight as fat down from 43.4% to 41.2%
Three weeks to go.
I will be under 16 stone. Not my goal, but I'll carry on going. The idea was to compare myself to Mum and I've already won that one. The only comparable measurement because of our different starting weights was % body fat. We now have the same
