      Yes, we've made it to six months my porky little friends. Six months of fat busting, and sweet Jesus I feel better than I have in three or four years. <br />
      <br />
      Also miraculous is that MvJ has managed to moderate something for six months and not ban himself. <br />
      <br />
      Let's have some six month results in this thread please, whether weight, strength or whatever other measure. I am not the slightest bit stronger in my puny arms but over the six months I have fatbusted 8.5% of the former MvJ or...<br />

            [/quote]Ditto that. On a plus side though, it inspired me to at least get stronger. I think I have far less body fat - below 10% surely. And after years of constant injuries, I only had one serious injury this year (i.e. out for a game or more - 3) and at one stage played about 15 games in a row.<br />
            <br />
            Thanks for the inspiration guys  😁

              since the start of FB have gone from 105 with love handles, to anywhere between 96-99 on any given day - have not slipped over 100kg for about the lats month - was 99.9 last sunday night on Mrs bartman's flash new digital scales, and I'l take that 100gms!!<br />
              <br />
              So... a happy median (is that the term), and sans love handles...<br />

              <br />
              and they weren't love handles there, they were spare tires...

                  good work GMan.  So where are you aiming for with this fat busting - you are now where I started 18 months ago.

                    I'm disappointed. I jumped on a brand new set of scales today and they read 108kgs. I really thought I'd gone lower than that with all the biking and running etc. Maybe it's the scales or perhaps I'm having a fat day. Wouldn't have helped having a gutfull of Guinness yesterday watching AB v Boks with the London Ferners. But still, I feel lighter and fitter and my running is really improving.<br />
                    <br />
                    No idea what's going on but I'm worried that I'm just getting better at moving my carcass around rather than actually losing weight.<br />
                    <br />
                    Not happy.

                      Well if I can reach 100kg by the end of the year I would be very happy, but my main goal is between 90kg - 95kg. So I reckon I should get it by Feb next year.<br />
                      <br />
                      My main focus is to be diabetic & heart problems free for the rest of my life. Both my parents is/were diabetics, my mother passed away in 2004 due to complications of being a diabetic and having heart problems after a heart bypass.

                        Yes Happy Birthday FBs.  You were born at exactly the right time for me and I am down 20kgs from January this year.  More importantly my lifestyle and routines have changed and I am feeling much better for it.  I am even starting to contemplate some more serious exercise lilke triathlons and ocean swims!<br />
                        <br />
                        Interestingly enough I am still obese according to the BMI measure so I still haven't won the fight with my insurance company, but the forces of good will prevail!<br />
                        <br />
                        Keep up the good work!

                          Gee - 6 mths. Only stumbled back in here by mistake.  I have lost around 8 kgs 3 notches on my belt and generally feel better than I have in about 5 yrs.<br />
                          <br />
                          I would like to give big ups to FB's but the "credit" lies with a health scare I got about 6 weeks ago (to the day).  Weight loss not necessarily a good thing but all the latest signs are that I'm going to be around to pontificate and bore you all a while longer after all.<br />
                          <br />
                          Had my 1st beers in 6 wks on Sunday.  Other than that 6 glasses of wine in 6 wks.  Eating a bit better, exercising a bit more, losing a bit of weight. double digits by Xmas! (hopefully)

                                  110kgs to 93kgs since December, and I haven't needed your mincer support group to do it (either that or I am too lazy to keep a thread alive with progress reports).

                                      My hat is off to MvJ for starting this, was a very good contribution and he should get the services to rugby award at the next Fernies for increasing and improving the Golden Oldies playing stocks.

                                          Holy shit thats incredible. I havent put up a fatbusters thread basically because I'm a lazy prick but to 20.5 kg is amazing. In the summer of 2004/2005, me and my brother had a weight loss competition after being fat and useless at uni and I went from 117kg to 100 and he went from 95kg to 83kg in about 3 months. But most of that came from not sinking piss 3 days a week.

                                              Cheers AWL - can add, or subtrace, as the case may be another couple of kilos there - 95-96kg now, depending is I weight myself pre dum or post dump...  Saw some photos of me from a while back, in the last year (will have to find out the date, was an engagement party), and holy fuck, who ate all the pies!!
