Well, in an ideal world the person would have achieved significant weight loss, improved their blood sugar regulation, reversed diabetes or stopped it developing in the first place. Because they have been eating way less for however many months they won’t need as much food to be satiated. Hormones like leptin improve too which regulate appetite. So the hope is that they will be able to sustain healthy eating habits. Long term effects aren’t really known so that’s my take on what would be a best case scenario
you need to spend about £10,000 to get all the excess skin cut off you lose about 30% of your total muscle mass, and probably with joint problems too, look kinda like a walking corpse and then you pile it all back on as you have a food addiction and didnt actually fix the mental side of it
Certainly can see it in the face of those that have taken a higher than necessary dosage to get the weight down quick. I do outside sprint training for håndball teams twice a week on and around the athletics track (i might have mentioned it once or a thousand times) and there's a group of 60-70 year olds who have been coming down around the same time since summer and training, borrowing our ropes and tyres - ****ing brilliant to see. Health is wealth.
I know a lass who’s been having them, she has lost so much weight so fast, to be fair she looks pretty good fully dressed. Saw her a little less dressed recently. I reckon her flesh flaps were could drive a grandfather clock swinging to and fro like that.
Monday, Monday, can't trust that day Monday, Monday, it just turns out that way Oh Monday, Monday, won't go away Monday, Monday, it's here to stay. One for the kids, there.
Brenda Ann Spencer never starts her diet on a Monday, the reason being... well, there are no reasons. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
I found that when I was into cycling pre-covid. As a fat nack, I could do to shed some weight, and I love being out on the bike when the fitness is high enough that I'm not a wheezing gasping mess, but the problem is, to get to that point it takes a good 2-3 months worth of riding twice a week for it to not feel like hell. Some family have taken the shortcut jabs and they seem to look good for it, but I'm pretty sceptical about them, so will wait and see what happens when they stop. In the meantime, now that the Xmas chocs have finally gone, I'm looking at being more disciplined with snacks etc, and I've gone over 2 weeks without alcohol for the first time in years. Lately, on a "light" weekend I'd still generally have a bottle of wine and a few beers, and probably every other weekend would be heavier, and that bottle of wine would be a box instead
I used to do quite a bit of cycling but I found it was taking too long to get the same calorie burn as other exercises (running) I now stick to weights and walking (I've developed dodgy knees and ankles) I do try to eat healthy most the time but I do love my food I find the exercise just as good for my mental health as the physical side
Booze is a killer for me. I just know too many people and out socialising too much, normally at a pub. Plus beer is one of my favourite hobbies, trying all different craft beers, which makes it doubly difficult to cut it out. And I don’t actually want to cut drinking beer out, so there’s that. But I think it must be possible to drink lots of beer and stay in good shape, my target is getting under 70kg, I’m about 80kg now which is almost as fat as I’ve ever been. I got to 82 once and managed to shed down to 65 in about 6 months but I was still in my 20’s then and maintaining that weight is hard work. I levelled off around 70 after awhile and stayed there for ages until I started eating like a pig again as if I was a teenager and struggled to exercise as much, coinciding with my missus getting a new job working long hours but now my daughter is getting older she’s ok to leave on her own for an hour or two so that shouldn’t be a problem now. Roll on Tuesday.
Weigh day in morning , find out if another week of salad for dinner was worth it or a waste of ****ing time ,and then spend the day researching dodgy drugs and tablets to make you **** loads
You know the answer best to this, mate. If you want to lose weight in the easiest and fastest/efficient way, you've got to quit the beer. Otherwise you're trying to drive a car with a foot on the brake. The alternative to taking a break from drinking, is to get scientific about it, calorie count and eat less calories for what you're drinking, but then you're not going to have the energy for training properly, you'll always be hungry and punishing yourself and it will get boring. Some ppl can drink ten pints a day and not put on weight, others look at a pint of Guinness and get a beer gut. It's just the luck of what kind of metabolism you have... You could join a running or triathlon club, then you'd train more socially... But then you'd be obliged to bore everyone you meet about your training schedule, as is the rule if you train for a marathon or triathlon.
