84.8 kilos

I had to go to the doctors for a urine test so took advantage and weighed myself at the chemist 13stone 5lbs (84.8 kg). I have some scales at home but they are useless so I always weigh myself at the chemist.

This weight loss really encouraging because I have been trying a variation on low carb as per Michael Mosley to low carb high fat with intermittent fasting. I eat between 2/4 pm and 10 pm. So fast for 16 hours if possible. I eat fatty foods like belly pork, lamb, chicken with the skin on. The idea is you fill up on fat not carb. The intermittent fasting is from Dr Jason Fung. Canadian kidney specialist.

It is best to follow medical doctors as they base their advice on medical research.

I have been looking at what my target should be, apparently 60kg 9stone 5lbs, argh that means another 4 stone. Which is what I have lost so far AGAIN. That might be a tad challenging.

My waist, I say waist, Mosley recommends you measure around your belly button. I was 50 inches, now 45. I know it sounds huge but it is coming down. Internal fat is what interferes with the pancreas. So my aim is to try and knock diabetes medication off entirely. If I can get rid of insulin surely I can get rid of metformin and sitagliptim.
