Well I have dropped from 115.6 kilograms (254.9 pounds) when I started two weeks ago to todays weight of 111.6 kilograms (246 pounds). Thats a 4 kilogram (8.8 pound) loss. So Im happy. I can definitely see changes in my images too from when I started. Of course the major event for me in the past week was to realise that my weight issues are centered around carbohydrates. Basically having a carb binge and always feeling hungry when I eat carbs – followed by this great book that really outlines the science behind the carbohydrate hypothesis (more soon), well it really changed my perspective and approach. So I have taken on a more anti-carb diet and switched to atkins. Only after one day I am immensely missing the vegetables but I know that they will come in time. Anyway a good two weeks to start!

Nice weight loss, good luck! Some of your meals look tasty, watch out for monotony and falling into the typical LC rut of omelet for breakfast, salad and chicken for lunch, salad and steak for dinner. Great for a while, then soon pizza beckons…
I already miss that stuff. But what I liked about the Atkins approach was the way you increase the carbs until you start feeling hungry/stop losing weight. This way I will find my own balance. I miss been able to use a lot of veges but I know its only a matter of time so for now its ok. But I do hear your point.
Congrats on losing 4 kilo!!! That’s awesome! I can really see it in the pictures, especially in your chest.
