My family and I have decided its time to lose a bit of weight. None of us are obese but I could personally do with losing around 10 kilos. I’ve dieted before and lost around 15 kilos with a combination of the Atkins diet and Glyx diet. Not particularly healthy but the weight disappeared real quick. Not a sustainable diet though as the prospect of going through life without noodles, rice, potatoes, alcohol or anything else with anything but a tiny amount of carbohydrates is not something that particularly appeals to me 
So, I’ve decided to simply cut out carbs after 8pm, increase my fitness activities (I currently only play badminton for 2 hours on a monday evening) and cut out anything with more than 3% fat content. I will keep you posted in this thread on my progress.
My goal is to lose 10 kilos before my birthday in mid September. That will put me at around 90 kilos. Still sounds a lot to many but bear in mind I’m 6′5 (1.95 m). It is according to various charts my ideal weight.
I’m going to miss the cheese fries in Henrys Grill and I tend to snack a lot. A particular snacking favorite of mine are sour sweets and crisps. It is going to be tough but I reckon my will power is strong enough (he said lol).
