Starting a weight loss campaign

I am 54 years old, 5 foot 9 inches tall and weigh 90kg my ambition is to get back to the range of 75 to 80kg. I always put on weight over the winter but recently I am no longer losing it in summer.

I am also hoping to reduce sugar, white flour and fat which all I think contribute to my depressive mood.

Thanks for your support.

Hy

same here, lol.

I cant seem to shift any weight at all. I exercise 3 * a Week at Boot camp, and run or shall I say a slow shuffle from a to b , twice a week. I do eat reasonable well , not too much rubbish but i have demanding Job which keeps me on my Feet for 10 to 12 Hours a day , and sometimes food is the last thing on my mind. I am starting an eat clean challenge on Monday , I let you know how I get on . But far now, maybe we can keep each other going |||||||||||

What news?

Thanks for the support, nothing happened over the summer as by energy was spent on a obsessive romantic/sexual liason with a number of Young Ukrainian girls, mainly cyber based but at the end completely blew my confidence.

Anyway 1 kg heavier and I am back on mission.

If you are using the 12 week plan my advice is to plan all your meals, don't get too hungry & use smaller plates.

Good luck

Check out the low GI diet the-gi-diet.org/lowgifoods/ - try to avoid processed food as much as possible - they have too much sugar etc in them and absorb into the body too quickly. You will feel less hungry eating complex carbs, it's true. I have lost well over 2 stone in 16 weeks with this and lots of exercise like walking, occasional swim and a little bit of resistance exercise. IT WORKS - just have patience abd believe in it. You can't kid yourself.
