Because you know… you need to lose a few kgs! It’s not that hard! If you don’t quit shoving food in your pie hole, you’ll add a few kgs. If you do quit, you’ll lose a few!
Well, truth be told, I never expected to lose weight going to Japan. I mean, rice & noodles every day! What would you expect? But it seems I put on about 2kgs. I’m still trying to determine my actual weight right now. So it’ll be a couple of days before I know the result. I’m…
Well, knock me over with a feather! I got there. I knew I was close. So I have been celebrating with a little ice cream and cake! I never thought it was achievable. This morning I even tried on my old shortpants: 34″. Lo! and behold! I can wear them (not comfortably) but I can…
At day 78, I recorded 84.0kgs as my finishing weight. Well, I made it this far. So what are the plans? We’re on holiday for a few days from tomorrow. I won’t be able to stick to my lifestyle choices religiously. But I’ll try to: eat well, sleep well, exercise well. And if I don’t…

I tried counting calories several times, it is an exercise in frustration, TBH. So I quit. Calories BurnedInstead, I decided to count calories burned. I worked out my BMR, then recorded my weight at a starting point. Since I was already exercising and had lost a bit of weight, I was able to determine how…
This chart simplifies the stats I use. In short, the more I exercise the more weight I lose. If I keep the daily average up, the weight loss speeds up. As soon as it dips, the weight loss slows. What a surprise. 2250 daily average seems to be closer to 2kgs per month; while closer…
So I finished week 8 at 84.5kgs. Well, it was an eventful/uneventful week. The scales presented a drama about excessive weight loss, but the averages (thank god for averages!) suggested the true story. Christine keeps telling me to get new ones. Honestly, I like the name “Thinner”, and the numbers keep it honest! The challenge…
