  • Fell off my bike and lost any real world usage of my arms for exercise 2.5 weeks ago so have lost the 3x 22 mile daily commutes I was doing each week and had to skip my training walks for my upcoming event the last 2 weekends so weight loss has been solidly reliant on calorie control and running a deficit from my BMR.

    28 june 17 - 109.5 kg

    considering i couldn't leave the house or cook for myself for 5 days after the crash and subsisted on takeaways in the evening i think i did ok. bit miffed i'm not closer to 100kg by now though as when I was able to exercise I was powering my way through so feels like a bit of a crawl now and was hoping that wouldn't happen until I hit <100kg and planned on slowing things down and not running such a high deficit to help fuel more training.

  • 14.3kg is loads in that time frame 😀

    0.5 to 1kg per week is recommended and you've been pushing 1.5kg... has that been a daily 2000 calories deficit 😲

  • sticking to 1500-1600kcal a day food and then rest of deficit is exercise, I've cycled 3x a week to work and back (11 miles each way) and done a 20-27 mile walk once for 3 out of the last 6 weekends and before that did a few 20-30 mile days on the bike on weekends.
