I have lost 5kgs this week
 

The past few years I have really battled with my weight. In my early 20s I was very fit and worked out in the gym 7 days per week and was very healthy, I will post some pictures of me in my early 20s as soon as I get a scanner.

Reason for my weight problems stems from a sleeping problem that I had been suffering the past few years, I was basically sleep deprived for many years, a problem that I am slowly fixing.

To help with my sleeping problems I need to get back to my normal weight then I won?t have any sleeping issues.

Sunday night I started my diet of just fruit and vegetables and water ? Nothing else and I have dropped 5kgs in 4 days.

I will keep you posted.

thats good, start running too.

I can imagine that trying to sleep where everything is upside down must be very difficult.

Congrats on the weight loss.

Congrats Batts!

Good start. Be careful with too much fruit though, a lot of sugar.

Great start bro - i realized today i lost 10 lbs myself!

am sure there will follow more kilos, congrats on your result

This isn't a good diet dude. Loosing weight too fast isn't god for you and you'll regain it as fast as you lost it.

Are you kidding, i am feeling so much better.

This really isn't a good diet. Depriving your body of proteins, calcium and amino acids is just not a good idea. Try to eat a more balanced diet. You really shouldn't be losing more than 1 - 1.5 kilos per week.

I got your 5kg's and someone elses too. This seems to happen to me a lot, people lose weight and I get it. Thanks a lot. I hope people start to lose money soon and I get that too.

Fuck that man, i have 35kgs to lose, 35 weeks to lose 35kgs not in this lifetime, i want to drop this weight in the matter of months.

You need to get protein otherwise you will lose you muscles before your fat.
I am way overweight and at the moment I am on a powder diet with 800 calories a day but it has all the proteins and minerals needed so you loose fat instead of muscles.

Way to go!! But throw in some meat too. The proteins are very important!

You're not Courtney on the biggest looser atm are you? :1orglaugh If so, you're a fag! If not congrats on the weight loss! Sounds like you're going to need a nip/tuck if you keep loosing weight this quickly! :banana

Attempting to lose it too quickly will just put a strain on your system, and when you try to return to even very conservative normal eating habits, your body will pack the weight back on double fast.

Starvation diets don't work in the long run.

Further, fruit based diets are often not very good for you, as fruits can be high in sugars which will trigger high insulin reactions, which can actually make it harder to lose weight.

I lost 30 pounds doing a modified Atkins style diet, without losing any strength, and without feeling like I was killing myself to get there. Before you starve yourself thin, get information and consider the longer term implications.

When you said you lost 5 kilos, my first thought was...

No nip tuck here, i am training like a madman at the gym with my personal trainer.

Wow !! I wouldn't last one day on that shit...

Congrats bro

You got that right :thumbsup

5kg is a hell of a lot to lose in a week and sustain. Of course, this is only with a tiny understanding of the metric system. 2.2 lbs per kilo or so?

What everyone else said. Your methods will catch up to you. Balance your diet out dude.

Congrats!

Here comes the thing, that clueless idiots dont know. Im not saying you are one, just keep this in mind.

You can lose a shitload of weight with working out and just eat dark bread and water. However, once you start eating "normal" food you will gain weight.

i know what i am doing dickhead.

LOL You can lose much more weight snorting that crap...

be careful man.... on a fruit/veggie only diet for every kilo 30-40% will be muscle and that's BAD.

If nothing else start drinking 2-3 protein shakes daily with your veggies n shit. hit me up if you want a really good protein shake that's got 55grams of protein per serving and only 260 calories :winkwink:

Try complementing your diet with a jog every now and then.

A healthy died combined with lots of exercises should do the trick.Good luck !

You'd be better of consuming a healthy, rounded diet and exercising strenuously.

ROFL, that was pretty funny :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

The first 8 days of The Fat Smash Diet by Dr Ian Smith (the guy from the Celebrity Fit Club show) consists of eating as much as you want but only fruits and vegetables. He refers to it as the detox phase of the diet. After that each phase has a modified menu. I have the book but haven't actually tried the diet out, although I have heard a lot of good feedback on it.

Its amazing, i feel like a different person.:thumbsup

Diets are not the answer, you don't just "hop on a diet" for a while then go back to normal when you've hit your ideal weight.

Mister, you need to make a lifestyle change, now and forever.

agree - it always happends to me :(

here ya go batts http://www.wantontalk.com/index.php/?page_id=278

I still have 103 kg and cant get rid of it.

Congrats! Will you post "before" and "after" pics ?

Will all due respect, no you really don't. From saying you hit the gym 7 days a week, without taking at least one rest day to insisting that eating only fruit and losing 5KG in a week is a sustainable weight managment option, all indications are that you really don't know what's going on.

Depriving your body of proteins and other necessary nutrients is just insane. You're going to be losing what little muscle you probably have at a surprising rate. If you're over 30 like me, putting that back on is going to be even harder after the fact.

I'm sorry, but I can't see any professional anywhere ever recommending this approach. But hey, it's your life ... but it'll make a good story at the gym later today. :winkwink:

congratz :)

:thumbsup :thumbsup

tell your trainer about your fruit and vegetable diet and he will bitchslap you.

:thumbsup :thumbsup congratz

:thumbsup Congrats

Agreed. When I was on a military training program they suggested well balanced diets and rest days. 5 days absolute MAX. They actually suggested 4 hard days and 1 take-it-easy cardio day.

Batts: No offense because I like you but your approach is flawed and you're going to be super depressed when you see your health go down to tubes, start losing hair and gaining weight out of nowhere.

Nice man, try harder now ;)
