11/8/12 Saturday. The weigh in this morning registered the first weight gain since mid way through the first week of starting this experiment with the diet supplements. The total today is 103.2kg a gain of .7kg since last Saturday when the total was 102.5kg.

There is no concern on my part with this gain in weight. I was travelling for two days which is never good for dieting and more importantly on the past weekend I definitely let the eating run free
on Sunday. With 3 x Bacon and egg muffins and a steak sandwich plus beer during the Robe New Course breakfast and Kingston Open.

Dining out during the week and drinking wine added with not being able to get out and about to exercise to my usual level compounded the excess on Sunday. Interestingly it was also a bad week for my injury flare ups. It has been a while and that particularly limited my ability to be able to get out and just do a 2-3km walk a couple of times.

Still on target to get below 100 kg at the end of the diet supplement experiment.

I am not concerned that this is a portent that the diet supplements do not maintain the weight improvement. The onus is always on the person not the supplements. That said there is not a problem in my opinion wit the reasons for the gain as described being out of the ordinary. This weekend there will be no special dining events and the injury flare up has been treated and I am back where I can exercise freely again.

Thankyou for your time and attention, Geoff

Still losing the fat....

4/8/12 Saturday weigh in for the fifth week of taking the diet supplements. I have got a digital set of scales now, whilst the weight loss does register on the older scales the read out is difficult to get an accurate figure. The total weight on the scales this morning is 102.5 kg and a picture is included in the post. A bit of a surprise as I did not feel as though I had exercised enough during the week and was expecting a negligible figure to show for the week.

That puts the total weight loss in five weeks since beginning to to take the diet supplements at 6.5kg from 109kg. My meals during the week included several beers on Saturday night at a 50th birthday as well as canapes and hors d'oeuvres. During the rest of the week it was coffee with toast and cheese and twice fried (Olive oil) eggs and toast for breakfast, 2 x ham cheese sandwiches for lunches and Chicken Marsarla 3 times for dinner Steak chips and egg for dinner and Stir Fried curry noodles for dinner on Friday night as well as a couple of beers at the golf club.

After seeing this result my confidence at getting to less that 100 kg is strengthened. The reduction is gradual and there is no discomfort as a result of taking the diet supplements. I will set a target of 92 kilograms which is what I weighed in 2002 as the ultimate target. Seeing as I have not had any growth spurts since then that would be a very acceptable weight for me. This figure is 10.5 kilograms below my current weight so it may take two to three more months but that is certainly not a problem.

Not carrying the 6.5 kilograms gone so far on my frame is already a vast improvement in physical comfort. It is especially noticeable after a couple of days golfing that my energy and physical condition are still up for more.
