Diet.
No breakfast.
Very light lunch. Scotch egg or pot noodle or sandwich (two slices bread) and a bag of low fat crisps.
Sensible portions for dinner, no overtly greasy food such as chippy chips. Mrs D has also ceased her habit of only eating half of hers and offering it to me.
Protein shakes and kept the exercise going, as with rapid weight loss muscle mass can also erode.
We only keep the bare minimum in the house, no biscuits, cakes, etc, so snacking is eliminated- I can't eat what isn't there!
Im allowed a handful of peanuts occasionally if the cravings get a bit much, although after 4 months and 3+ stones my body seems to have re-educated itself and Im not getting the cravings much at all.
If we go out and stop at a coffee shop Ill have a slice of cake, but then ill either skip lunch entirely (if its a morning visit) or have only soup for tea (if its an afternoon visit.)
Now im well into it and I've seen significant results I've become even more disciplined, its given me the motivation to knuckle down.
And once a week im allowed a treat. Im a Revells addition, so its usually a bag of Revells on a Friday.
And its worked. Im looking and feeling pretty good and were saving a significant amount onnthe shopping bill because were not buying much crap. And most importantly im feeling really good.
And if youre asking how I did the Achilles, I did it by running while weighing 280lbs. Heart and lungs were managing it fine, but the joints and connective tissues werent.
