Apologies for the Cosmopolitan style article I’m about to bring to you guys but if it helps one chubster lose weight like I did then I’ve earned my angel wings.
Sooo, picture the scene. It’s July 2022 and I’m 18 stone. My BMI calculator - which is BS by the way says my target weight should be 13 stone due to my height and age. I notice that the fatness crept up on me like one of those monsters from Pitch Black and I have a shortness of breath that is catastrophic for anyone that wants to turn around just to grab the remote control. At first I think I have Long Covid but it’s actually Long Donut and I need to lose the weight, and fast or else I become just another heart attack death statistic.
To be continued …
My weight loss journey

Only when some cvnt sets him on fire.
Well done, mate. Badly need to do the same. Fook knows what I'd be like if it wasn't for the dog getting me out. Lost a fair bit 2H last year moving house but went on an AI hol over NY and put it all back on in a week.

When I stopped playing hockey I kept eating the high carb diet needed to play.
Ballooned to 230 lbs. I'm only 5'10" so I felt it on my joints. I just reduced portions a bit and cut out ice cream completely. With weekend golf and normal amount of walking I'm down to 180. That ice cream is a killer.

I have sympathy for people who have a GENUINE medical condition that leads them to being overweight. I have no sympathy for people who are over-weight through over-eating or lack of exercise.
I have been a smoker for 49 years from a time when it was socially acceptable. I accept any consequences of that as it has been my choice.
It seems strange that the medical profession consider smoking, which is now strictly controlled in public, to be worse than fat slobs pigging-out in franchise pubs.
Instead of encouraging such people to take a walk sometimes, they provide them with mobility scooters to become a menace on the pavements to pedestrians.
I will finish with what is one of my favourite expressions from an internet article I saw many years ago.
It's enough to make a cat laugh!

If you ever require medical treatment for smoking then you better post me a cheque for my tax back because I don't smoke so shouldn't be paying for those who do to live. You and your smoke are a menace on the pavements for pedestrians who don't want smoke in their lungs.

Fair play Robb, in theory losing weight is really simple but actually having the motivation and consistency to keep it going is another thing.
I do like fasting for 24 hours once a fortnight or so, feels like a bit of a reset for my body and generally feel more energetic for it (so long as I don't get so hungry I stuff my face after to compensate).

Try to get as much protein from food as you can rather than supplements, as this will force you to eat healthier.

Sugar is the silent killer for me. Stopped consuming it just this week and I already feel a massive difference. My lower back pains have reduced loads and I seem to have more energy.

the tax smokers pay per year is enough to pay for the NHS on its own. So next time your requiring life threatening surgery be thankful that due to smokers your able to get this free of charge.
