From the land of haribos.

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.

I cut out the snacks and "treats" and lessen portions but do tend to go all out rather than a slower approach. 3.5kg in 4 weeks typically, about twice a year.

I have a very physical job so sometimes a calorie binge is needed.

My biggest problem is I can resist everything except temptation so it creeps back.

Also, why can you lose weight but not change the shape? Same wobbly bits but smaller?

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

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.

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

This, though since I stopped drinking alcohol I've found it far easier to maintain weight. If I do need to lose some cutting out the crap and a few fasted bike rides diesvthe job quite quickly.

I do recognise its a lot more complex for many people

Another 10 and I will be the lowest I have been since I gave up rugby

I bought a pair of 501 jeans in 36” and hung them on my wardrobe door , I try them on every Wednesday to see if I can fit into them comfortable, getting very close and the extra motivation that gives me is better than sex ????

-Good healthy lifestyle

-Healthy food, no need to hard diet as long as food is full of right nutritions( smaller portions helps)

- some form of exercise, even 30 min walk a day is better than nothing.

-cut out junk food, take aways, sweets

-cut out fizzy juice

- and most importantly, cut out booze or reduce it. For example: lager,beer, wine, coctails and change mixers to slimline

Just my thoughts

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

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.

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

Motivation and discipline is there most of the time. I can turn crisp, biscuits and cake down all day, never eat fast food or take away. I hate shopping and it’s to easy to fill the trolly with freezer food then try and plan my meals.

I exercise every day so I know it is 100% diet.

I’ve swapped white bread for 50/50 and stopped sugar in my tea and fizzy drinks, cut back on alcohol, done the easy things.

Slow definitely best if got a lot to loose

I prefer an aggressive approach but it’s only ever to knock a tiny bit of fat off maybe 2 weeks max at 800 cals all from protein and walking ever day off from weights.

Fantastic for rapid results but not sustainable for very long

That is also a good way, so you more prefer to do mini cuts that lasts for few weeks? I also use walking for my cardio. I walk about 120min or so aday

Definitely mate not because I believe it to be better or more effective I just despise dieting so get it over with as quickly as can but if I was really far out of condition I’d definitely go the slow and steady approach

Part of the reason I'm fat is psychological and due to medication. I'd say I only ate correctly and exercised correctly for 5 years of my entire life.

the rest of the time I either under-ate, over ate or binge ate.

Slowly coming off the med and will try to get a health balance again.

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...

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

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

Lost 1.5 stones over a year.

Going to the gym and cutting out on beer and not snacking as much.

Also working from home helped, used to take so much food into work for my lunch but now at home I tend to eat what I need, I thought it would be the opposite.

Used to do more weights in the gym but now doing more cardio so looking leaner. Gone from 14.5 stones to 13 so far.

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.

Its all done by nutrition the gym is for getting you fit

3 clean meals a day and run or walk 4 to 5k every day

If you can fast 24h once a week. Keep it simple and you will loose 5 to 10 kg a month.

Getting enough sleep also plays a big part in it

I say simple but changing your diet can be the tuffest thing of all

Generally I just stop eating biscuits, cakes and chocolate, cuttung out all of those empty calories is highly effective.

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.
