What was your speed?
I speedwalked/ran about 3km with my daughter to the shops to find them closed.
Rang the hubby and we drove to anotehr one that was 10km away also closed, then went to a gas station.
Ive decided to forgo the last day on this diet for a couple of reasons.
1) I hate this diet, its horrible i crave breads and chocolate
2) Ive lost the weight i want to, 0.7kg should be easy to drop
3) ive broken the plateau and then some
4) I dont honestly think ill loose much more by eating rice and veges, oh yeah and i really dont much like rice unless it has some sort of sauce/gravy
Ive stuck to it fine throughout, ive had great sucess, ive hated every second of it also
YAY congrrats I thought the sane thing if I didn't fall off at the end of day 4!
But eating rice and the soup for a day I don't think much more will drop but look at how much you dropped for your surgery! You got everything you wanted out of the SH diet,Have a great day

Rotfl, yes dad
Its not beat yet, but im drned close!
Rice is ok, just not by itself. And the soup thing is OLD now. i dropped 0.2kg overnight which is cool for that last day. The problem with that diet is that it denies you so much that you end up overeating if/when you finish. I had real trouble restraining myself which was one of the many reasons i quit it.
HAPPY EASTER TAM!Howdy Wishes,
Stopped by to see day 7
IT WAS AWESOME!Good Morning Wishes
(Well, I hope it was a good morning)
I think you need stuff like that on all your posts - nothing says how fucking cool you are like a personal disclaimer!
Wow nice speeds and distancesNo speed for me today. Ended up walking 10,5 km with my best friend in the most beautiful sunny weather. The downside was the freezing wind from the north.
But we had a blast anyway, we tend to go fast and not let anything stop us.

Thank you! Happy Easter!
Ta much for the compliment. Gotta way to go before I can do an guns pic though!
Good on you for staying in control of that diet and picking your own time to move on.
It's wonderful that you're so close to your surgery weight now.
I just love your stories about your husband picking you up and about the way your whole family is supporting you.
I hope your enjoying Easter with your wonderful family.
Not all that far for the guns, Happy Easter

Okay, so now i have to get back into the habit of eating real foods again hehehe.
Today i had pancake for breakfast, and a cadbury creme egg, then (350 total cals) then i went for a run to my friends which is 3mi away and burnt 350cal
So im all good for that!
Im tossing up weather i can/will do a 90km race thats on the 5th May that i really want to do. Will i be fit enough for it, and will i be doing tests in the hospital.
I think ill ring the hospital tomorrow and let them know im at my goal weight, then ask them how long things will take

Hey Wishes it sounds like you have a plan. I say for the 90 KM race. I'm going for a 3 mile walk the same week and I have the same questions. yours is a lot further that's for sure.

I just checked out your ticker, wow you have come a long way.
Its a hard and long journey at the best of times to loose weight, and the hardest part is waiting for it to go!
But i can assure you, its worth every single bit of it when you hit your goal. The compliments, the change in attitude you get from people, the whole being able to buy clothes off the rack. Its absolutly fantastic and worth it.
So yeah, dont give up, just take it day by day

Well, i gained a little overnight - probably from the chocolate and diet coke (sodium etc) yesterday heheh. Im sure it will drop off easily enough.
Today i made the call to the hospital, they are sending me the packs and it takes apparently 3 months to do all the tests etc.
So i SHOULD be able to loose another bunch of weight before doing the actual kidney donation which is awesome!
Not only that, but i can do the race i wanted to do!
Anyway, test sheet is in the mail box to do, ill do that firstly, and register for this race!

Hey Wishes it has been awhile and I am sorry...I didnt read back to far - I was offline for a week due to comp problems...Id like to see how much weight you can loose in 3 months - you are a loosing machine - youve done great so far and you can only accomplish more and greater

hahaha, oh noe :/awesome pictures.
You know I started taking before and after pictures too... But instead i gained weight
Hopefully, I'll follow in the same direction as you and actually do it.
I do mine about once a month, unless i dont really loose significantly decent amount of weight. That works out to be about 10lb between pics give or take some.
Probably a good idea - its EXTREMELY hard to stick with, particulrly at easter! lol
Im not gonna win the race, i just want to be able to finish ... to be able to say i did it! and didnt quit!Congratulations on that surgery weight!!
And I see you're on to the next goal right away. The race sounds a bit scary, but I know there's nothing like conquering your fears. And ours..
Have a terrific week!

Hey Wishes,
I just wanted to say you've done an amazing job, and are such a source of inspiration! I'm pretty new to the forum, and I know there's going to be times when I want to give up, but if that happens I'll look at your pictures and your progress over the last year and push on. Congrats again and keep up the good work.

RhoRho, i recall being just like you only 8-9 months back.
I trolled through the before/afters for a fair bit to make sure it was possible and not just some gimmick by companies to sell stuff!
I was at the stage that i honestly didnt think i could do it, but was determined to try. Being here, and having fitday, and educating myself was the key to success.
Mostly the latter, the educating. There are a lot of false prophets about trying to sell you stuff, and a lot of news items on TV that are blatently false, or grosly exadurated. Tons of Urban Myths and Fairy tales etc.
The best way to learn is to keep searching online, and listen to the people on this forum who have proven results. Not to mention being totally honest with yourself (even if you lie to everyone else ) and choosing a plan that you can stick with.
best of luck, Ill be keeping an eye out for your before/afters
I still have a bit more weight to drop yet!
