Posted - 05/02/2008 : 11:09:41 I reached my goal weight! I now weigh 60kilo. I'm thrilled!
(That's 132 pounds or 9 stone, 6.3 pounds for those metrically challenged!) |

Time for a follow-up study!
By coincidence, Chocky and I started our diets at the beginning of August last year, so we're one year on today...
I can report a reduction of 83lbs (38Kg) and I am officially no longer overweight (BMI 24.3).
So how's Chocky doing? 
Congratulations, dieters.
I am also working on taking up less room on the planet. So far, I've lost 5 pounds, so the work is beginning well. 25 more to go. |

How about some weight loss tips?
The best thing I can say is, start a regime (with your doctor's okay) of eating right (a dietician can help, but try to stay away from artificial sweeteners - they're poision, I tell ya) and regular exercise and then STICK TO IT*!
As for the exercise, you should combine both low impact (Pilates, Yoga, Calanetics) and cardio/calorie burning. The former helps tone muscle, with the latter helps general health and fat reduction.
(* Someday, I hope to find myself actually enjoying doing all the exercise, but so far, the only thing I enjoy is the results!)

Congrats, nice work. How long did it take and can I ask how much you lost?
I started at the beginning of last August.
I lost 13.4 kilos (29.5 pounds), but I also lost centemeters due to the exercise I've been doing - I lost 16cm (6.3") around my ribs, 17cm (6.7") around my waist and 15cm (5.9") around my hips.

Well done Chockie!
And keep off those matzo balls, ok?
And so you are no longer eligible to enter this, then? Congrats, you little chocolate thing you!
Whippy got dome votes from me, as did others. I liked yours especially too, Sal.  |
