Plateau appearing

It's started again - a plateau. Loss per day for the last week and a bit:

3/12 175g
4/12 150g
5/12 125g
6/12 100g
7/12 100g
8/12 75g
9/12 62g
10/12 50g
11/12 37g

So my weight loss is definitely slowing down. Time to bring out an organised plateau breaker - something that I do whenever weight loss drops below 100g. Increase the number of units of protein to 4 per day, and minimise other stuff. So I'm aiming for 4 units of protein today, plus fruit.

One more kg lost


It only took 6 days, rather than the expected 7 - 11 days to lose, but I am pleased to say goodbye to kilogram 14. As said in the last post, going off flour seems to have had a large effect in helping suppress my appetite and helping with the weight loss.

Now onto kilogram 13: gained between 15th May and 9th June, still way too fast, indicating my eating was out of control. Again I want to lose it over 7 to 11 days.

Yesterday for reasons that seemed good at the time I splurged and had bread, sugar, flour etc. This was 'allowed', but I have to make sure that I don't continue on with it today - it was a one time thing.

Unfortunately, I am going through a period of lots of stress - I shall see an end to it in the next month or so, I'm getting depressed and losing sleep and generally suffering. The good thing is that I am not 'emotional eating'. That's because very few people eat 4 or 5 apples when they are upset. So apart from the losing weight, going without sugar and flour etc has another advantage.

Weight today: 79.0kg, lowest weight in 26 weeks.

Losing weight too fast

I have pleasure in saying that I'm losing weight too fast. I should be losing weight at about 150g a day, I'm losing up to 40g a day more than that, so I'm eating high fat food (mainly peanuts) to reduce the weight loss. Not enough to stop the weight loss, of course. Looks like going off flour was a good idea. Current weight 79.4kg.
