FAT-TO-FIT : Friday, September 24th

Published on September 24, 2004 By Peter Attaway In Diet

WEIGHT : 235 pounds [nine pounds lost]

Hmmm. Well, I've managed to lose nine pounds in ten days on the lo-carb diet. That's the same weight I shifted in a month on my previous diet. Weird, init? I don't expect (and indeed I hope) that this rate of loss doesn't continue! I now await the plateau stage. I'm not sick of the foods yet (basically, meat, salad veg & cheese) but I would murder me own mother for a sandwich. Still, I'm only doing this until November 19th, and am aiming for a weight of 224 pounds (or sixteen stone in English money).

Hi again Peter!

Good to see that you are making progress!

Unfortunately IIRC, when you switch to a low-card diet the carbs that are stored as glycogen in your muscles and liver is gradually lost. The glycogen also binds water which adds to your weight. When I tested a low card diet I lost 5kg in 10 days. Have you made any bodyfat measurements to see if that department has improved?
