Started My Diet...

[imamartian]

if calories consumed are less than calories burned then you lose weight.. unless there is too big a deficit then your metabolism shuts down to protect your body..

in principle this can be true.... but take it too far.. e.g. starving yourself or missing meals and you body will start to hang on to the fat... apparently !!!

Diets are wrong.... ways of life are right... whatever you adopt, aim for a gradual success, for the rest of your life !! make it a way of life !

CJ has changed his way of life for some considerable time and lost significant weight and his body has adapted accordingly. Hats off to him, and the fact that he rarely feels the need to post on here is indicative that this is a lifelong diet-change. I, for one, thank him for his courtesy in advising us of his continued decrease in body mass in spite of the fact that I'd imagine that it is increasingly tiresome to do so, especially in light of the grief that he seems to receive.

Col, ignore the naysayers.

Good on you mate you should be proud of yourself - perhaps the negative posters on here are a lickle jealous of your achievements .

 

[matt1e]

that's a little over 1/3 of my original weight when I started my diet..

Alarm When you learn how to quote, THEN you are entitled to criticise. If you are not upto date with scientific knowledge; don't post.

Scientists on TV state, that someone born today, would live to be 200 years old.

Frankly, I think you ate a prst. Micky. Disprove.

Well done Coljack, again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and ....................

 

[Mickymoody]

I'm all for ColJack, well done him, but this thread - it drags on and on.

Get over it. Then the people the forum locuses, attack at everything what is said. To make the argument their own.

It embarresing really, and shows how shallow people really are. People use and excuse to post abuse, to try to justify the rubbish that they have posted, and it just doesn't rub, with the readership.

I agree with MM, whatever it was he said.
Just in case some of you can't understand him:
locuses = locusts
it embarresing = it's embarrassing
readership = audience or readers
(I think)

Well done to CJ BTW. I haven't followed the thread or even read the umpteen pages, but well done anyway.
Fortunately, sincerity is not just skin deep.

Woo Hoo!!

Joking aside, well done mate. Having fought flab for years myself, you have pulled off a massive achievement!

Huge pat on the back and BIG respect.

 

[ColJack]

anyone still keeping score?

I've lost 174.5lbs now ( 12st 6.5lbs ).. still no gastric band..
I may well have to have some of the flappy skin removed at some point though..

 

[Bahco]

Well done mate.

Stick at it son.

How much longer you got to go and how much more do you want to lose?
