When I don’t blog it means I’m not dieting. As a result, and thanks to lots of great food while visiting relatives for the Easter break, my weight had returned to exactly where it was on New Year’s Eve. Since returning home and just being a bit sensible I lost 1 kg, and I now feel ready for another systematic attack on my excess weight.
This time I’ve decided to have a little outside help: some herbal pills which claim to make one feel full with smaller portions. They have apparently been proven to aid weight loss in several clinical trials. I’m going to give them a fair trial myself before posting details.
Obviously there is no such thing as a magic pill which melts fat off us while we continue stuffing ourselves. I know what I have to eat (or not eat), but I have difficulty with portion control, and that’s why I’ve decided to give these pills a go, as an aid to willpower. I also occasionally succumb to emotional eating, and it will be interesting to see what the effect of the pills will be then.
So, yet again, I’m posting starting statistics: BMI 29.1, 79.0kg, 38.0% fat, 41.2% water, 28.4% muscle on my scales, and 37.6% fat, 29.7kg fat on my hand-held Omron.
