Cohen's Lifestyle How much do you weigh and how tall are u!!

Prefix for Cohen's Lifestyle
G'Day

I am 165cm tall and now weigh 60 kilos.

This is a size 10 tailored pant and a size 8 stretch jean.

I have no bottom left at all. I mean it, none.

Tops are size 8 for stretch fabric, size 10 in a tailored shirt and 10 in a jacket.
10 is a bit loose but better for business clothing.

My ideal weight range was 58 to 60 kilos. I regret not going down to 58 kilos but am not going to mess about with it now. I have been 60 kilos for six months and very pleased with the result (but another 2 kilos would have given me a better fit in the jeans!)

Regarding people saying rude things about 'getting too skinny':

If I said to these people 'well, if you eat any more you will burst your skin like a ripe melon' I would be howled down as a rude and vulgar person and how could I be so cruel?!?

Yet because I have lost weight, and made no secret of doing so, and told everybody how much I enjoyed the program and how easy it was, my enjoyment and satisfaction is taken as a rebuke against those who hang on to their obesity like it is some kind of prize! Trophy Obesity! Victim Obesity, more like it. 'Oh, well, I've tried everything and I just can't lose weight (munch, munch)!'

Well, they haven't tried Cohen's.

As Yoda said: 'Do or do not, there is no try'

Cohen's has no room for a victim mentality. This is it, the jig is up! This program will and does work but giving up our obesity takes a mental leap from victim to victor.

But, of course, us skinny people are just megla-maniacs, crowing about our size 8 jeans and being mean to people we have given pamphlets and information to and who choose to wallow about in their fatness because they 'just can't help it'.

Yeah, right!

Ladies and Gents, onwards and upwards. Come next Christmas, we will be in our smart new clothes, slim and trim, and our critics and detractors will still be wearing their sack cloth and ashes moaning about how 'nothing seems to work for them'.

Do not give up until you reach Goal Weight, and even then drop another kilo or two, just for good measure. Believe me, nothing tastes as good as being slim feels, and losing 28 kilos / 4 stone / 60 pounds has given me a whole new lease on life and bah! humbug! to people who feel threatened by me as I dance along light as a breeze!

... and you should see the lethal stillettos I bought last week to wear with another pair of new, skin tight, stretch leg jeans! Lacy toes, and fully 4 inch heels!!! I had to practise wearing them around the house before I could go out and prowl around at Christmas Drinks! Hehehehahahaheheh! Oh, this is so much fun! Too skinny, indeed! Let them eat my dust!

Cheers and much manic laughter

Hello Chelsea

Gees i love your work, you alway have the perfect thing to say, god bless you...

I think i should have told my aunt some home truths but i didn
t want to seem rude, looking at it she was more than rude, next time i'll be more prepared.

Thanks chelsea, you are an inspiration.

the soon to be skinny minnie yummy mummy
lol
 
I'm 163cm and currently 91.3 kg (ticker not updated until I have official weigh-in). Fitting into all 18s on bottom and 16s on top at the moment. Cant wait to pull out the size 16s and 14s hanging in the cupboard with the mothballs.
My figure is all bum and thighs, but the area I can see the difference in is my top half - my bras are fitting nicely and tops are not pulling at the buttons - a great feeling!
Keep going everyone - you're doing great

Hi Everyone out there,

Hope you are all doing well. I'm very new to all this posting/Forum stuff. I was doing some research into the Cohen's program and after reading through this forum, I'm a beliver. I'll contact the consultat tomorrow fill in the forms, pay the money and go get my blood test done. I have just one question, on the Cohen's webpage their's an ideal weight caculator, that asks for your height and shoe size. Well, I'm 1.62cm and have a size 6 foot, so, the web page puts my ideal weight at 56-53kgs. I don't ever remember being that size, it seems a little unrealistic. What do you think out there.:p
 
Hello
My goal weight is 61-64 but i want to get to 58 kilo's not that I have ever been that small ever, and everyone thinks it's unrealistic, i think go with it and you never know, soon the new you will be revealed, I think if your a size 6 shoe you probably have a very small bone structure so it's possible.

Hi all

Hi Guys,

Its nice to see everyone doing so well. Quick update-i'm excohens(although the way i look at it, you are never off ) but i reached my goal weight , and did refeed last year in october/sept. I've actually decided to come back and loosed 6 more Kg's . I'm competing this year in triathalons and endurance cycling and although i'm 164cm and 64.5kg and very toned- lycra still scares me. I'd really like to be in that sub 60 group.

Currently as i said i'm 24yrs old-athletic/sporty build(not the tall slender type, more the chunky variety with short limbs, sort of like a fit hobbitt)
64.5kg
164cm
size 10 tailored and 8 stretch top and bottom

I'm starting my program for a quick 6 weeks and then my refeed once again.So thats a total 8 weeks-no more . If the last few kg's dont shift then i know i'm at my "sweet spot" and not to mess with the delicate balance but no harm in trying right????????
When you are off the "program" and on maintenece and choose to go back if you are on it for more that 2 weeks they suggest you also re-do refeed

i hope this helps

I started at 96kg
size 16-18

Hello Netski

I will be interested in your progress, particularly in that you have obviously achieved a stable weight after losing the 32 kilos from 96 to 64.

I think I joined the forum just as you were finishing.

I achieved the top of the ideal weight range at 60 kilos 165cm, and regret that I didn't go to the bottom of the range. I was not hungry at any time and had been told to expect hunger when I had reached my own personal ideal weight, not just the statistical ideal weight.

I definitely have some fat left over but haven't been confident about going back on to the program even for a period as short as two weeks, which would definitely take me below 58 kilos.

So I shall be watching your progress with great interest. I consider myself slim now, have been stable for six months and proud of what I have achieved, but there is still that niggling doubt that I pulled the plug too soon

Cheers

Hi Chelsea,

Watch this space!!!!! I'm really excited about being back. Congrats on your amazing success.
Unlike your experience, as i was approaching my goal weight i was amazingly STARVING. It was absolutely unbearable, and i'd like to think i have a very high tolerance to being hungry.

At this weight i can have a few naughty moments and still stay quite stable. I am EXTREMELY active and i'm certain i burn off what i eat

BUT

i cant help but look at the numbers on the scale and be disappointned with myself, i always finish what i start- i'm a stubborn taurus

Take care, good luck with your continued maintenence - and if those 2kg get to you..............i'll be you personal cheer squad, it'll be a breeze look at what you've already acheived
 
i'm ard 161cm tall... and currently at 69.7kgs... fitting into a size 12 bottom.. as my tummy is still a bit big... for stretch tops is a size 10.. but non stretch is a 12.. as my arms are still quite big...
 
wow jayce

you look amazing, and what an achievement, well done. keep up the super work.. Di
 
An update after 4 weeks

Hi di78

I haven't weighed yet (do that at 4 weeks) but i was 80kg a week ago and my height 5'7.
My top half takes 14-16 and bottom is 14.

I am hoping to get back into my 10's. My wardrobe ranges form 16 - 10's, I used to have 8's many moons agao but i gave them to my neice.

I wouldn't wear anything now that was too showy even when I do lose the weight.

Sam

I am now at 72kg and am fitting into my size 12 stretch jeans and a loose fitting 14 trousers.:rolleyes:
In tops between a 14 & 12 depending on make. Need to lose more around arms and boobs.:p
Sam:)
 
I went to that Virtual model website and put in my finish weight so I could visualise what I would look like at goal.
It is good motivation.
I also did one for my starting weight and it is quite an eye opener.
I am 156cm and as you can see from my ticker a bit big right now.
 
A big "Thank You" to all that have commented! I don't think that I would ever be "scrawny"!

I still cannot believe that I am in the 60's - never thought it possible!

I too am 175cm tall, have been a size 22 or 24 & am aiming for a size 14. After reading about Janine's current clothing size I feel quite excited. I thought 14 was being overly confident. I guess I still don't quite believe it will really happen.
 
Cate - please be aware that our bodies might be different shapes therefore well all end up different sizes!

im 176 cm tall and currently in the low 70's (not sure as i only weigh 4 weekly) but i am mainly a size 14 bottom (RARELY 12) and a medium (but mostly large) in the top

its so weird because i still have clothes i wore before that fit just fine, and some store size clothes are different...i actually am a bit pissed off because i really do want to get into size 10s when im done (which should be in about 6 weeks) but i cannot fathom how ill go down from a 14 - 10 in 6 weeks?!?!
 
not sure if this is girls only?

anyway im 74.8kg right now.

goal weight is 70kg-ish

height is 182cm

im already happy with what i weigh for my height, but i still plan on achieving my goal.
 
Cate,
I'm excited after seeing Janines pic ( you look amazing) I am 175cm and at the moment 83 kilos and fitting into 14-16 's. Cant wait for the 12's though.

Thanks for the kind words!

Thanks girls for the kind words!

Things are great - I even had to go and buy myself another new pair of jeans! SIZE 10! Yes - A size 10!!!!!

I can't believe it! :D I actually really struggled with buying that size. I had been in and tried them on 3 or 4 times before I handed over the money!:eek: Every time I went in I was convinced that the 10's would not fit - but they did! and they are not even skin tight!:)

I think I struggled so much because I was in 16's in September last year and still can't believe the difference. I never imagined that I would ever get down to a size 10 and be able to maintain it!

I am so pleased that I found Cohen's and I make sure that I tell EVERYONE about it!

Cheers
Janine
 
I'm 5 foot 5 inches, 157 lbs and size UK 14 top and bottom in most things, but I'm wearing a size 12 top right now and 10-12 pjs (but they're pjs :p)

YAY FOR EVERYONE WHOS HAPPY!!
