*** Big Fat Weight Loss Thread ***

Ah gotcha.

I woke up 13st 8lbs this morning, which is a bit heavier than usual.

I've been nomming a lot more lately, and walking in to a lot more situations where there's more noms available, and much less exercise than usual. It's been hugely detrimental, and the exercise stuff has been largely out of my control, so hoping to wrestle that back in to my court now.

Hospital Porter irrc, so lots of walking around and probably pushing gurneys etc

Yep, you're correct. Gurneys all day when I'm working in the ED, you definitely know you've done a shift at the end of the day. It's when you're working on the main hospital that you get the full workout though, hospital beds weigh in at 150kg unladen so you can imagine what they're like to push and manoeuvre around when they have a patient and all the associated kit and caboodle on there. Cardio is not an issue. :D

I'm going to try the 75 HARD thingy

I'd not heard of this before. I think I could do it/not far from currently doing it, except two 45 minute workouts is pretty tough to fit into every day, especially one being outdoor now we're getting cold and wet.

Follow a diet - Yep
Complete two 45-minute workouts, one of which must be outdoors - Well, my weekly total averaged out beats this and its probably more outdoor than in, but not 90 minutes every day
Take a progress picture - this is an interesting one. I don't do this, but I guess could. I'm not sure why though? That's a lot of photos of me looking the same.
Drink 1 gallon of water - I probably don't drink this much, I probably should make more effort.
Read 10 pages of a book - Yep (although one link said this was a self-help/self-improvement book)

It will be interesting to hear how you get on @ic1male

Jesus H. Got on the scales for the first time in a few months today and I'm back up to 104kg. Nearly fell of the scales in shock. That's almost back to my heaviest weight. Four years work all down the pan. What a bummer. I've been eating chocolate every day for the last two years as if it's going out of stock.

Starting 75 Hard is definitely the fresh start I need it seems.
 
Mines been creeping up too. Since i recovered from covid and lost a couple kilos my brain has switched back to shoveling anything and everything. Think this morning i was 103kg which was a bit shocking at how quickly it's jumped.

Been on the bike the last 4 days so hoping to build on that consistency. Might also start on some meal replacement drinks for lunch. That's probably my worst meal for overeating.

Just in the past couple of days I've seen A LOT about Mounjaro. Seems we finally have a 'wonder drug' for weight loss?

nothing special about it compared to other ones https://www.webmd.com/obesity/mounjaro-ozempic-wegovy-zepbound-difference
these are wonder drugs that are making these companies billions. They can afford some cents on promotion
and its an area of very fast research. Heard next gen drugs are coming that are much better both in effect an dlack of side effects
