How do you go on about it when losing weight?" Having tried various things over the years. I prefer a fast cut to start. The quick weight loss results help motivation stay high. Then you can eat maintenance calories add desired weight rather than constantly being in a deficit for 3-4 months. But it’s all about different people finding the most effective way for them. | |||

"I guess it depends what body fat percentage you’re at and aiming to get to. For me results came only by changing my relationship with food and now it’s pretty effortless, I just add a bit extra fat in winter to keep warm " that is good and yes, it will take longer to lose the weight, depending on the body fat, same here, by cutting out few things and increasing the cardio too | |||

I do recognise its a lot more complex for many people | |||

"To go from wobbly to heavily muscular and solid. You already have enough fat so don't eat anymore of it. Fasting all day, then allow 1hr to eat and do not eat anything outside of this time. While doing this, hit the weights hard!! Allow aching muscles to recover for 1-2 days so alternate which areas of the body you are working on so while your chest is hurting, you can do legs or back etc. Follow this for 1yr and you will be unrecognisable. I was fat all through young life but look at me now " Just had a look at your profile pics. You’ve got lovely legs and boobs | |||

"I lost a stone last year, mostly through illness. I did manage to end my toxic affair with Cherry Lucozade, which helped, and I've started eating more actual food than kitkats and Belgian buns.

"I rejoined slimming world end of August and I'm half a pound away from a 2 stone loss. It has been slow and steady, I need rhe accountability of been we8ghed each week. Have done it vefore and gave up after a few weeks, this time around is different. I've realised it's a lifestyle change its not a quick fix and I have done rhen all from lipotrim, dukin, keto, Atkins. I now plan my food for the week, write the food plan out and stick on fridge. I do the food shop. Batch cook my dinners for the week. I know what I'm having each day and if I feel like changing it around I have other options on my food plan. I still have something nice ( not calling it a treat as think that's why I'm an emotional eater) if I want it but within reason. I'm also doing 3 gym classes a week and working on increasing my daily steps. " Well done on your loss so far. You’ll get to target soon enough | |||

"Decrease intake and increase activity it’s simple. Most people are over weight because they are to lazy to do anything about it, including me! I can do all the exercise in the world, but when it comes to trying to eat healthy, I give up at the first hurdle. As everyone always say, losing weight is 90% diet, I am getting no where!" It’s probably about the same percentage mental discipline. Get your head in the right place and you’re halfway there. Find a target you want to achieve then go for it. Motivation is good but discipline is better | |||

" exercise alone can't make up for a poor diet , crap food and / or portion size. I've done some form of exercise or sport 5 or 6 times a week since jan 1st. barely lost a stone.

"I find losing slowly is unmotivating but I suppose it depends how much you are trying to lose. Best way is to eat anything you like but much smaller portion so you don't feel deprived.

Despite that I still manage to eat too much for my age and activity level. smh. roll on coming off fat meds. | |||

"I sort out my head first. That's the most important thing. Do away with this idea that I can crash diet, replace my unhealthy habits and find better coping mechanisms. I think I've finally started getting it - not beating myself up for eating a slice of bread, not using food to comfort myself when sad. And going to the gym has helped a lot. I'm taking joy in attending, not afraid to get sweaty. The endorphins have me buzzing and I like keeping that up. " therapy helped me a lot but the meds make me want to eat everything. Lol! I hate the gym but I have other alternatives. Main thing is getting a handle on my food intake. Just realized it's also neurodivergent sensory seeking with food as well not just comfort eating so I have to find other sensory things that don't go in my mouth... Yup my brain just said "dick has no calories." | |||

When it comes to losing weight/ building muscle etc etc you need to find what works for you. There is no ‘one size fits all’. " yeah I've either been too thin or too fat. No strong flexible person. I wasn't raised to keep fit/athletic....so it's all new...once I get off the fat meds. | |||

" exercise alone can't make up for a poor diet , crap food and / or portion size. I've done some form of exercise or sport 5 or 6 times a week since jan 1st. barely lost a stone. Bloody metabolism is stupidly low. Often getting hr of 50bpm. I've cut out my usual sweet stuff , smaller portion size . Come to realise it needs to be a permanent change Um are you trying to lose weight or body fat because i'm certain I have double or triple the body fat you've got. Muscle weighs more too!" I have only recently dropped from obese 30% + body fat, down to 28%.( just fat ) So I'm pretty sure you're not 3 times that lol. And as for muscle , I don't have much of that. | |||

"As somebody who tipped the scales at over 160kg ten years ago and is now 90kg i often find that whilst i dont track my calories as meticulously as i used to I do have to be careful not to overdo the carbs. I naturally tend to live on bread rice & pasta which is fine in moderation but left unchecked carbs can account for 50% of my calories. By replacing sandwiches with salads and sometimes switching out rice and pasta for CousCous or say Pearl Barley I can reduce that macro to 30% and find it much easier to manage my weight - alongside regular training of course " Amazing , credit to you for doing that That's a hell of a weight loss. And looking great now. | |||

" Amazing , credit to you for doing that That's a hell of a weight loss. And looking great now. " Thanks mate appreciate it. Changing jobs played a big part in it. I went from eating what i wanted whenever i wanted to having a role that meant i was up and about on my feet for twelve hours a day moving constantly with strict meal times. I reckon the first two years of weight loss was through working & walking alone as i was too poor to pay for a gym membership at the time so used to walk for miles in my spare time alongside strict calorie counting | |||

"My biggest issue is not being able to target areas for weigh loss. Last thing I gained was my boobs & they are the first thing to go, which always derails my motivation to lose more. " Targeted weight loss is a myth unfortunately despite what a lot of fitness "experts" will try to tell you. I tend to lose it on my face first and look ill | |||

"Discovered the Ducan diet about 10 years ago and ever since have managed to stick to my goal weight What does this entail?" Dukan appears to be low carb, high-protein diet. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dukan_Diet Personally, I respond better to a whole-food diet. With at least one carb portion a day. I have to cut most animal fat due to it spiking my cholesterol. | |||

"If you want to lose weight burn more calories than you consume. Or get of your arse instead of spending several hours a day on the internet. " Dead easy when you're a wheelchair user. Thanks for the advice | |||

"Here it my tips on it and how I do it as well as I have started my slow cut, take your time losing the weight, point 5 to one percent of your weight per week, that is more than enough, the slower you lose the weight the more likely you are to keep the weight off, not only that, faster weight loss can result in a decrease in muscle a slower metabolism, less energy, increased hunger, as well as declining test levels none of which you want to experience, the slower you lose the weight the better, slower than the last time. How do you go on about it when losing weight? Generally I just stop eating biscuits, cakes and chocolate, cuttung out all of those empty calories is highly effective. Cal" This is so true, was diagnosed with type 2 last October and have been very strict totally cut out the naughty stuff and have gone from 13 stone 7 to 11 stone 12. Feel so much better only trouble is need a belt for all of my jeans. | |||

"I find it so incredibly difficult to loose weight. When I'm trying to loose, I work out 5/6 times a week, consume 1200 calories a day and ensure I'm in a calorie deficit, but the weight still doesn't shift easily. I do tone up a little and feel fitter but really do struggle to loose the pounds " It may sound crazy but you may not be eating enough. Also depending on what you are doing in the gym, it may just be a case of slowly losing fat and gaining muscle mass so they weight doesn't really change. | |||
