The 2018 Weight Loss Thread

Dropped nicely to 77.7 Kg but the best part is my pants size are now a 32 from a size 40 :D
 
This morning, 126.01 kg, very chuffed with myself, basically 2 kg down in a week. However I know the way things go I lose a lot the one week and less again the next, I'm still aiming for 125 kg by next Friday though.
 
Its not your fault you're not losing weight:

The results, the researchers said, were stunning. They showed just how hard the body fights back against weight loss.

“It is frightening and amazing,” said Dr. Hall, an expert on metabolism at the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, which is part of the National Institutes of Health. “I am just blown away.”

It has to do with resting metabolism, which determines how many calories a person burns when at rest. When the show began, the contestants, though hugely overweight, had normal metabolisms for their size, meaning they were burning a normal number of calories for people of their weight. When it ended, their metabolisms had slowed radically and their bodies were not burning enough calories to maintain their thinner sizes.

Researchers knew that just about anyone who deliberately loses weight — even if they start at a normal weight or even underweight — will have a slower metabolism when the diet ends. So they were not surprised to see that “The Biggest Loser” contestants had slow metabolisms when the show ended.
