Re: I've lost SIX kilos since Feb 1st.
Well done YouI find the smaller portion sizes to be the one thing that keeps me from ballooning. Its so easy to fill a plate and scoff way too much and dinner plates are huge nowadays
I go by the rule, eat only when hungry and make the calorie count
. I no longer reach for the biscuits or crisps, I have instead a few flat breads if Im craving those when I come in from work ( thats my danger time - between 4 and 6) and I up my fluids thenI don't weigh myself ever, but a pair of jeans that I had to lay down to do up at Christmas, I can now pull on without opening the zip or button and Mr Missy has had to put new holes in my belt

My weight loss is due to
1 No snacking
2 smaller plates
3Minimum sugar & carbs
4 Lots of fluids
5 fibre (yeuk)
I do have one new issue, after my recent& painful bout of Shingles part of my abdomen appears to have gone numb, affecting peristalsis. GP s mystified.
that explains a lot, a diet is what I need too but mine doesn't work as easily as yours 
I'm pleased now there was a reason for your weight loss

I'm finding that cutting down on carbs is the key to shedding weightWell that and the exercise!
I find I have energy levels in reserve now too
A win win situation
My Mum could eat like a horse and I'm not sure if it was due to the Parkinson's but she didn't put on any weight.
I on the other hand only need to sniff a jelly tot and that 2lbs right there!

Robert congratulations of the highest order for your achievements through changing your lifestyle .I do have a friend who’s lugging a sack of potatoes around with him but calling it Male middle aged spread .He used to be like you 12 st odd but darent get on the scales now .
Besides being unhealthy a gut looking like a man’s carrying an alien around isn’t attractive ?
