Happy Birthday Fatbusters-- 6 months!
-
I'm disappointed. I jumped on a brand new set of scales today and they read 108kgs. I really thought I'd gone lower than that with all the biking and running etc. Maybe it's the scales or perhaps I'm having a fat day. Wouldn't have helped having a gutfull of Guinness yesterday watching AB v Boks with the London Ferners. But still, I feel lighter and fitter and my running is really improving.<br />
<br />
No idea what's going on but I'm worried that I'm just getting better at moving my carcass around rather than actually losing weight.<br />
<br />
Not happy. -

good work GMan. So where are you aiming for with this fat busting - you are now where I started 18 months ago.<br />

<br />
Well if I can reach 100kg by the end of the year I would be very happy, but my main goal is between 90kg - 95kg. So I reckon I should get it by Feb next year.<br />
<br />
My main focus is to be diabetic & heart problems free for the rest of my life. Both my parents is/were diabetics, my mother passed away in 2004 due to complications of being a diabetic and having heart problems after a heart bypass. -
Yes Happy Birthday FBs. You were born at exactly the right time for me and I am down 20kgs from January this year. More importantly my lifestyle and routines have changed and I am feeling much better for it. I am even starting to contemplate some more serious exercise lilke triathlons and ocean swims!<br />
<br />
Interestingly enough I am still obese according to the BMI measure so I still haven't won the fight with my insurance company, but the forces of good will prevail!<br />
<br />
Keep up the good work! -
Gee - 6 mths. Only stumbled back in here by mistake. I have lost around 8 kgs 3 notches on my belt and generally feel better than I have in about 5 yrs.<br />
<br />
I would like to give big ups to FB's but the "credit" lies with a health scare I got about 6 weeks ago (to the day). Weight loss not necessarily a good thing but all the latest signs are that I'm going to be around to pontificate and bore you all a while longer after all.<br />
<br />
Had my 1st beers in 6 wks on Sunday. Other than that 6 glasses of wine in 6 wks. Eating a bit better, exercising a bit more, losing a bit of weight. double digits by Xmas! (hopefully) -

Can we have at least one post in this 'mincey' forum with some secrets of your fatbusting success?<br />
<br />
And how much more are you planning to lose?[/quote]<br />
The secret of my success, 1 high cholesterol test, a motivated wife and plenty of tortoise like running. I want to be under 90kg before my birthday in November.<br />
<br />
My hat is off to MvJ for starting this, was a very good contribution and he should get the services to rugby award at the next Fernies for increasing and improving the Golden Oldies playing stocks. -

Holy shit thats incredible. I havent put up a fatbusters thread basically because I'm a lazy prick but to 20.5 kg is amazing. In the summer of 2004/2005, me and my brother had a weight loss competition after being fat and useless at uni and I went from 117kg to 100 and he went from 95kg to 83kg in about 3 months. But most of that came from not sinking piss 3 days a week. -
Cheers AWL - can add, or subtrace, as the case may be another couple of kilos there - 95-96kg now, depending is I weight myself pre dum or post dump... Saw some photos of me from a while back, in the last year (will have to find out the date, was an engagement party), and holy fuck, who ate all the pies!!

I think thats the best part of it BartMan.. you see an old pic or even semi-recent one and can really see the difference - esp in the face!<br />
<br />
I haven't been arsed to log on but I do check out peoples progresss - well done guys!! <br />
<br />
Jan 2006 107kg<br />
