The 2019 Weight Loss Thread

100.4kg this morning. I'm really surprised as I was expecting a gain after the long weekend of consuming lots of food including deserts and beer.

I am starting to doubt the idea that alcohol contains alot of calories... This week I consumed ALOT of alcohol. Wednesday evening, I had about 3/4 of a bottle of Brandy, 2 Castle lites and 5 Budweisers.
Friday I did about 1/2 a bottle of brandy, 1 Castle lite and 4 Budweisers and Saturday I had about a bottle of brandy... Couple that with 2 Braais on Saturday and I still managed to lose 1.7Kgs... Maybe the alcohol is dissolving the fat and is aiding my weightloss? lol

From what I can see brandy does nothing for weight gain... it depends what you mix it with. Lotsa sugary drinks like Coke will be terrible. Mix it with Coke zero or TAB and you should be able to drink to your liver's content. :D

I drink it with Sprite Zero, but 30 shots in a bottle, if you do 10 doubles that equals 1440 calories... That is alot, considering my daily calorie intake is about 1300...
 
Been training since the start of the year, only discovered this thread now.

Not expecting to be part of the list, just a nice place to keep track among people with the same goals.

So here goes.
35/M
1.96m
Clean eating, Weight training, static cardio, swimming.
133kg (Jan 5th)
124kg (Mar 14th)
100kg (Bmi of +/-25)

Hey, another swimmer! What's your routine like?
 
My wife's heart is getting better thankfully. Her Ejection Fraction is up to 30% from 20% (normal is 55%) so we'll start walking together, working up to jogging/running eventually.
