What was it a month a go or longer we played at blackmoor? Think I've lost about half stone since I saw you last maybe a little moor.
Still the overweight golfer you know 👍🏻

Weighed myself yesterday which is 1 month after I first weighed in and started the healthy eating.
Very pleased with the results so far. Down to 82.7 from 87.7kg and nearly 1 1/2 inches off the waist.
Also I started the Intermittent Fast last week after doing a fair bit of research. It actually wasn't too hard as I hardly ate breakfast anyway, so relatively easy for me to drop down to 2 meals a day.
The hard bit is at the weekend if I'm playing golf, but I've started to make myself a couple of rounds of sandwiches and only tuck into them towards the end of the round, so very interested to read more about the claim that you lose 8 times more by excercising on an empty stomach.

Well I just got in from a new PB 4K morning run, usually burn about 350 calories according to mapmyrun, looking forward to having lost 8 X the fat! Might have to start eating lard for breakfast to keep the weight on!

Keep us posted.
Oh and if you really start to crave food during your fast period then sugar free jelly is a winner. You can buy them in little pots

Ask for research and you quote me a daily mail article. If there was an epic fail emoji I would be using it now!
I did Google it yesterday and most of the fitness and health sites said any benefit of early morning training is minimal. Certainly not 8 times.

Having worked with body builders and preparing them for competition for the last 20 years i can confirm with personal experience that this is the case.
As for the daily mail it was the first thing i come across.
Remain sceptical if you like. I however don't struggle for clients when it comes to fat loss

Don't be disheartened if the scales dont say what you want. Weight can be sooooo misconceiving. Lets say you have a full bowel of food, theres 2lb. a pint of water before you go to the gym is 1lb.
Things like a salty meal can have a big effect as salt needs 25 times it's weight in water to be stored. Recently studies are saying it could be 50 times its weight in water
Mark the inside of your belt with a marker and use that as reference. Keep going with the good workn. Its never easy but always worth it

I think its your last statement absolute rubbish.
How does 20pc become 8 times?
Also the words "up to" always make me wary of any statement the same as TM "up to" 17 yards longer.
It sounds like some are doing well and with everyone doing something it helps with motivation so keep up the good work.

No disrespect to you mate but you put the Daily Mail link up did you not read it first?
And if you did surely with your experience you would have realised it was BS.

Blimey if you read my post i just chucked the first thing i found.
I also said upto 8 times. Carry on doing what your doing i couldn't give a toss. For those of you that want free advice from someone that has put over 70 bodybuilders into competitions and placed in the top ten then feel free to ask.
I've spent over 7k on nutrition courses so I'll rely that and many many years of experience

I was trying to say " even the daily mail are publishing stiff"
But what is in the article seems ok to me. Not enough information in the article though.
Whats bs about it

Mate im not doubting the things you have done and the things your doing at all.
I only have 40 years of personal fitness to fall back on.
But if anyone on this forum makes a statement and hasn't got the proof to back it up then people are going to ask questions and in fact some were generally interested in an article that backed up your statement.
The Daily Mail one does not and it made you out to be making the 8 times statement up.
If you read it and I presume you did the article did not back up your 8 times statement and that is a fact.
On a personal note it sounds like your doing well and fair play to you for that the fitness industry is not easy.
On a personal level for me im not looking to be a body builder im way to old and injury prone for that.

I don't believe it needs spelling out everyone can see the article doesn't coincide with your previous up to 8 times more fat loss statement.
I believe the article states that if you exercise on an empty stomach you could lose up to 20 pc which tops out at 5 times more.

You may not want to be a bodybuilder but the concept of loose as much fat as you can by staying lean should apply to all.
The fact that you have 40 years experience maybe your shortfall as its easy to stick to what works and stay blinkered to what "might' work better.
That is in no way a personal attack. I was guilty if the exact same thing along with half the people i see

You could be right on this as I suppose I know my body too well and know its functions.
I am not in this process to lose weight though like most others.

What's with the one upmanship guys. My personal reason for putting on weight is because of arguments like this. I never know what's right and what's wrong.
Why you have to have it out in the public domain is beyond me. Disagreements like this is what PMs are for.

Come on mate that's a bit OTT
We are voicing are opinions nothing more.
As I said previously I am not an expert and I have not said I am.
You cant blame 2 people on a forum for your misgivings.
There are millions of ways to get the information you need to lose weight its certainly not rocket science just eat healthy and excersise simple really.
