  • 8 Weeks Today - How do you think im doing?

    Hi All,

    I began atkins weighing 231 pounds ( 16 stones 7 pounds)

    Today after exactly 8 weeks (2 months) since I began I now weigh : 212 pounds ( 15 stones 2 pounds).

    Therefore I've lost 19 pounds in 8 weeks.

    How do you think im doing please?

    My goal is to get below the 15 stones ( 210 mark) as i havent been below this level in YEARS!!!!

    I believe my ideal weight is from 12 stones - 12.5 stones (168 - 173 pounds)

    How do you think im doing please?

    Im male and 30 for anybody that doesnt know me or hasnt read my messages before.

    Thank you

    Adam-Uk

    ps: this is without exercise as I have to begin physiotherapy exercises/stretches which I aim to start when I get past the initial goal of 15stones. Then 2 months physio will mean EXERCISE HERE I COME

    Hi Guys, Im back thank you so much for all your kind words and encouragement.

    Today was week 9 and my weekly weighing day.

    Today I've finally entered 'officially' (as per my weekly weighing) the 14 Stones zone or 196 pounds zone.

    I was eager to enter this to show myself that the long standing fat is finally shifting, as to any additional recent weight gain I may have had.

    Im really pleased as the total is now 22 pounds lost over 9 weeks.

    What do you think?

    ps: I've also started my physio too

    Thanks & in celebration I've also created a new ticker, well why not hey.

    Hi Guys,

    I've had a chance to evaluate my next mini-goal.

    Its a shift from actual weight measuring. This time as long as I keep losing weight, Im happy the next goal is to get into the gym and get exercising so its basically to see where I will reach in 2 months time prior to joining the gym.

    Hopefully its all going to workout for me

      Well that is great Adam.
      I think you are doing great: 212 is a big improvement from 231. You are so close to getting under 15 stones!!!!!
      Look forward to hearing about you reaching that goal.

                        i'm the same as you. Started at just under 17 stone and now stand at 15st 1lb, teetering on the edge of getting into the 14st numbers!!

                        I've also not done much exercise due to work and family commitments, but hoping to start properly from next week

                            I wish you the very best of luck, keep at it as im doing and remember to eat a protein either every 3 hours or atleast every 6 hours maximum.

                            Drink lots of water and it will happen, I wasnt sure but now ive reached my first mini-goal im sure!!
