Posted July 14, 20186 yr Moderator Ok, this is only going to be exciting to me but:- Today is the day I have lost a full 10kg. No fancy diet, no fancy exercise just cut out the crap and started swimming once/ twice a week. At work I would have a box full of cherry tomatoes and grapes instead of choky bars and crisps. So from the end of last October to now, I have gone from 94kg (hardly a porker at 6ft) down to 84 kg, that's over a stone and a half in English.  Or equivalent to around 5% hp gain, for freee Â

Instead of waiting with a coffee I decided to get wet. only 15 or so lengths (improving). Made a big difference to my asthma though. I could barely go anywhere without my inhalers by last Christmas. In derby I actually forgot them and went the whole weekend without them.

But be aware that grapes have a very high content of sugar. Â
July 15, 20186 yr Author Moderator 3 calories a pop apparently and its good sugar, apparently as your body has to do a bit of work to get it. Compared to a snickers a big handful of grapes is a win.Â
July 16, 20186 yr Nice work, I dropped 13kg last year between march and December. Put 3kg on over Christmas though [emoji23]Not weighed myself for ages now but I feel and look better so not fussed.I went down the sugar free route. If it's got sugar in the ingredients list then it's a no-go.Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
July 20, 20186 yr I've given up on people asking me what weight I am. I just say 9 stone 45 pounds. Mike
