Great- whatever works for you, works for you.
It doesn't make my approach unhealthy though. I took 200 calories a day out of my diet, dropped the booze and cut out all but the best carbs. The result was rapid fat loss and a vast increase in mental and physical health. I have a fairly comprehensive medical every six months (I've got one this afternoon actually) and they would let me know if there was a problem.
There is also nothing wrong with daily weigh ins either- on the contrary I found it very motivating. And my scales test for muscle mass, fat percentage etc. Obviously the readings themselves are probably inaccurate but I think the daily directional movements do give you a good idea as to what is happening ie whether you are gaining or losing fat/muscle/water.
It depends on how much fat a person has. If a person is morbidly obese then a losing a pound a week would be positive, but very easy to do. If someone is a stone over their healthy weight, then a pound of fat a week is more realistic and achievable. It's horses for courses.As a guide, look at the weight range guide on the NHS website. I could be as low as 9.5 stone and still be considered healthy, although I wouldn't be due to muscle mass and age. The NHS are fantastic, but they do a one size fits all system at times. A person who is 5,6,7 stone overweight should be losing more than a pound a week. When it gets down toward the final leg of the weight loss, the fat will become harder to shift.
Think the only way out is keeping fit , watching what you do , try a good ( mother ) apple cider vinegar drink every morning https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...0?ie=UTF8&th=1
Eat porridge as it stays in your body longer as a slow burner, don't eat late at night , try drinking an oat based drink before bed

It's *a* safe rate, that's not or hasn't been disputed but it certainly isn't a universally right rate of weight loss. You may have life enhancing or saving surgery requiring being under a certain weight to lose or may have any number of other circumstances affecting what may be - the right - and safe rate for your individual requirements, 1lb a week may not be the required rate for all.
And as for whether people weigh more after transformational weight loss - yes I would say I would be shocked to find the one that doesn't (although they can exist). In that you have to count numbers of people who weigh more than the end of the transformation but their body composition is fair better than previously; also include consideration that should someone be losing a transformational amount of weight they won't have done it by halves and the end weight will likely be them at their slenderest of norms.
Weight loss is fantastic, but if you don't deal with the underlying psychological issues that caused you to overeat, you're likely to be back in the same boat
Just did. He said I'm perfectly healthy with far better stats than 2 years ago. My muscle mass was measured and is essentially unchanged but my body fat is down from 26% to 18%. My BMR is 50 lower than it was before this "crash diet".
I asked him if it was unhealthy to lose the fat so fast. He said evidently not.
In the last 3 months I have completely changed my diet but I honestly didn't do it to lose weight.
I've cut out potatoes Bread Pasta Rice and crisp as they are loaded with Carbs.
As a diabetic carbs are your enemies once eaten your body turns them into sugar.
I'd reached a point in my life when I knew I had to do something drastic as life had become shit.
5 pisses a night completely ruins your sleeping pattern.
Thrush is Facking horrible.
Spots and infection under my armpits.
