Well, I was losing weight nicely and then what happens? I reach a plateau. What is interesting is that looking back at my graphs is that it always happens about 1.5kg after I start losing weight at a reasonable rate. I'm not sure if this is because my body physically holds on to energy more, as it realises that I'm going for it, or psychologically as I just get tired of being hungry all the time.
Fortunately I've pushed through this 'barrier' and I'm continuing downward. However, I am the weight I was 2 1/2 months ago, my life changed a bit (as it does for most people) and I started gaining. Then Christmas came along and a few other things. So that's about 2 1/2 months wasted. Anyway I have 9.25 kg to go - not much and it hopefully will be gone in the next 3-4 months.

About Me
- Logical guy
- New Zealand
- As a child I was skinny, I don't recall how skinny but weight was never an issue for me. Ever. Even as an adult, I had never dieted, tried to lose weight. My internal weight control feedback was perfect. If I overate, I'd subconsiously lose the weight without even thinking. That was up until the age of 25. Then I started gaining weight, about 1kg a year. At age 29 I develop a health problem and suddenly I'm gaining weight at the rate of 1kg a month. Now, at 43 I'm still battling this. I'm hoping that this is the last time I'm trying to lose weight. Fortunately, I didn't gain too much (17kg) when I was at my heaviest compared with my goal weight.
