My personal achievement

[Tommer]

Gratz on your progress, always good to hear someone who's making a success.


I too have been taking steps to lose weight and build some muscle. I've gone from being able to lift not an awful lot more than 20x with the wimpy purple 3kg Dumbells in one go comfortably, to being able to lift 80+ of the 5kg dumbells comfortably. To you these weights might not sound like much, and I might sound totally weak, and you're right! I've muscular dystrophy, so for me it's a huge achievement, I can actually see some muscle on my arm now which is like woooah ;P

Admittedly, killing a food addiction is hard, and my rate of weight loss is very very slow despite maintaining exercises such as sit ups and aerobics such as starjumps and going up and down and up and down the stairs for 20 minutes at a time I found that increasing my water intake often reduced my hunger and this has helped me slowly reduce weight. Staying away from the fizzy drinks helped too

Keep up the good work
