Lose weight the fun way.

Anyone want to talk HRT? I am generally in good health but have always struggled with good eating habits. I'm a late night snacker and as I get into my 40s I am up more at night so eating more in the middle of the night. Anyone else struggle with this? Has HRT helped? GLP-1s are all the rage right now but I don't have food noise during the day, only when I'm a zombie in the middle of the night.

That's great Sheila! Way to go. Glad we get to be with you on the remainder of your journey to your goal weight!

I used to be a snickers, especially at night. Then I started reading about Intermittent Fasting, how it affects your hormone levels and how insulin, in particular, is affected by "grazing". Im finding it helpful now that I have the knowledge. Not sure if it would work for you, but definitely worth researching.

Yeah but why is the goal not equally split between the months, if it were it would be 2kg not 4kg i have to loose till mid June

I think it is because initially it is easier to loose the weight, but as you loose more it gets harder and the weight comes off slower. The different goals are to reflect the progression most people have and the final month of maintaining is to help us develop habits to maintain. Most people when they stop dieting gain some of the weight back.

I am tracking calories and proteins, goal is around my basic consumption, tracking half my sport calories as extra that i can eat. I hit the gym in oder to retain muscles but I just started again after 8 months of gaining 15-20kg because of health problems that didn’t allow for sport and I did a lot of comfort eating against pain. Will be a long route from 122kg to my goal of 80kg.

Lots of protein. Cutting down on snacks and pop. Mix of cardio and strength training.
