WEIGHT LOSS + the challenge

[whufc]

There's two discussions here, one is meal replacement and one is protein / supplement based.

One replaces a meal, one supplements a meal ( in brief ).

As a general rule meal replacements like the man shake are protein drinks packaged differently. Maybe a few more vitamins chucked in but essentially macros of 200 calories, 30g protein, 5-10g of sugar

Sometimes when people discuss round one, I have a complex, and think they are talking about my body shape

Reminder - Old metal heads best charge your headphones because them going flat at the gym is a night, night, night, nightmare.

I've been back on the weight loss kick for about 5/6 weeks now.

Getting some results.

Reduced Alcohol intake. I don't like it much, but my weight gain over the past 5 years, has been more about what I drink, than what I eat. I have switched to low cal beers. Can't hurt.

Portion control. Mrs C is on board too. Think it took her a few weeks to start cooking less.

Increased exercise. Gym sessions up from 1 time a week to 3 times. Heading back to Park run this Sat (now that old farts cricket is done) will walk/jog the 5 ks, then head to gym.

Down 4.5 kg's in that time.

The aim is to get back under 100KG. Just 9 more "KG Cunningham's" to go. Looking forward to fitting into some shirts that I have not worn in a few years time..... The buttons were under more pressure than Ken Hinkley!

Update - after 8 weeks.

Tale of the Scale

Week 0 = 113.3KG
Week 1 = 111.8KG
Week 2 = 111.5KG
Week 3 = 110.3KG
Week 4 = 110.4KG - Weird how I lost nothing in this week.
Week 5 = 109.9KG
Week 6 = 108.7KG
Week 7 = 108.0KG
Week 8 = 107.9KG - Old Boys Cricket Trip in here, way to many beers
Week 9 = 106.8KG

So 6.5KG's gone, with about the same amount to go to get back under the ton!
