Weight 2011 - week 43 - 88,4 kg

New week, new results.

Had a good week. Am off the soups and shakes now and allowed to eat mealbarrs and hotmeals now. Still on 800 kcal/dy though.

Trainingwise, managed 2 times and a weekend run.

Scale said 88,4 this morning. That's a good result and i'm quite happy. If i can keep this up i'll be ready in 5 weeks. Maybe for my birthday?

Total loss is now 41,2 from 1 st of january. That's almost half of me now....

New info next week//Geert

Weight 2011 - Week 42

Another saturday. Autumn is really here now. Leaves are falling and we have had the first nightfrost. Planning to change to wintertyres already as snow could be coming any week now.

So, another week of very low calorie diet has gone by. Actually quite ok this week. I'm getting really tired of only eating soups and shakes. Really longing for something to chew on.

Coming week wednesday i'll move over to a low calorie diet. 800 kcal per day instead of 600. Then i can eat bars and lcd meals. Finally something to chew.

Trainingwise i managed better this week. 2 times at the gym and ran last saturday. Will be the same this coming week.

Result for this week is not as good as i hoped. Think my body hit a flat. Happened before that i get to a level where my weight is stuck a while. Anthow, the scale said 90,3 this morning. Total loss is then 39,3 kg total, only 1 kg this week. 10,3 to go...

Wednesday group follow up at itrim. Curious to see how the others are doing.

Report again in a week//Geert

Weight 2011 - week 41

Well, second week of itrim done. Has been very challenging with a customer visit in the Netherlands. Let's just say i am not the most social person in the world at the moment.

foodwise i have kept to the diet. Soups and shakes all the way. Have bought some new tastes, and they are actually really nice. Especially the coffee ahake!

Training has been a problem due to travel and time. Pnly enough steps on friday, no pulstraining. Managed to run this morning though.

Results then. According to my acale i weighed 91,3 this morning. That's 2,6 from last week and total of 38,3. Only 11 3 to go to 80 kg..

Will continue this way for a bit more than a week. Then up to 9 weeks of bars and low calori meals.

Will report again in a week//Geert

Itrim week 2, day 9

Another quick update to write some experience off me.

Came back from my customer visit in holland last night. Actually went better than i expected.

Took with me 12 portions of food for 3 days. With a bit of luck and effort i managed to prepare them about on time. Once even on an airplane...

Trainingwise not that good. Due to hours and hotel stay haven't managed ny steps and no training so far. With a funeral today the first chance to do something is tomorrow or saturday. Next week will be better with morning training.

Met leo and rina at the hotel monday night. Really nice to sit and chat. Their food looked lovely..... ; (. Ah well, only 11 weeks to go.

Scale said 92,2 this morning, so that is quite amazing. Probably a good result for the week again.

Will report on saturday//Geert

Itrim week 1, day 5

Well, another quick update. I know i write a bit often now, but it helps in motivation.

4 days done of the first 21. Really longing for solid food now, but not hungry. I feel low on energy constantly though. Only 17 days left before i can eat bars and itrim meals.

Food i can eat is ok. Choclate shake is the worst and i have to start forcing it in now. Porridge with apple and cinamon is ok. Tomato soup is actually quite good.

A big challenge is coming tomorrow. Will travel to holland for 3 days for a customer visit. Will take with me shakes and soup but will have to manage both preparing them and keeping to the diet. Will be nice when it's over..

Scale said 93,1 this morning. That's only 1,2 over my lowest weight in 2006. Soon i'll have to go back 10 years to find my old weight.

Wonder how this will continue. 3,5 kg in week 40 and already 0,8 for week 41. Might have to stop early at this speed.

New info to follow, probably soon

Have a nice day//Geert

Weight 2011 - Week 40

Well, the first few days with my new start using itrim have gone.

Foodwise this has been good. Eating a very low calory diet for 3 weeks now. This means only soup and diet shakes 4 times per day. Only 600 kcal which is about 25% of what a man needs.

So far so good though, even with a conference at work it went ok. Not hungry, but a bit bloated in my stomach and a bit low on energy.

Trainingwise i managed 2 gym passes in the morning before work. On the conference we did pilates, running and football. During the running i had a proper dip, no energy and had to stop. Was feeling quite ill after that for a few hours. Guess i hace to take it a bit carefull with trainung while low on calories.

The result then for this week. Well, it seems to work as the scale said 93,9 this morning. That is 3,5 kg from last saturday!

Total loss 35,7 kg in total. With new goal of around 80 (83 with clothes on) 13,9 kg left

Will report result again in a week, maybe some update under the week.

Besides that, we agreed:
- 2 gym training passes of 30 minutes per week
- 1 run per week
- 7000 steps average/day
- no evening/night eating
- eat 4 times/day, every 4 hours

Feel quite motivated now. Hey, it's only twelve weeks.

Will report back how things are going//Geert

Weigt 2011 - week 39

A quick message as it is elins birthday today.

Back to 97,4 this week. Food has not been that good due to some stress at work and little time. Still can't manage that.

Was at itrim this week twice for training. Quite hard actually to do a pulse training in 30 minutes. Also ran 48 minutes last sunday.

Had my first group meeting. Interesting to see other people with the same problems.

Coming week i have a chat with my health consultant. Wonder what we will agree to do and where i am on my journey. Hope that will get me going better on food again.

Will report back in a week//Geert
