What are your thouhts on Coke zero, or lemon juice in water etc... anything non sugary, that isnt damn water!

Probably ok (diet drinks). Better than the real thing but honestly at 200kg, likely enough damage that the artificial sweeteners have some reaction.

So if you do consume, keep an eye out if you start stalling.

I would limit it to 600ml a day(2 cans). You should be having 500ml of water with every meal and 500ml of water as you wake up and before bed.

Im on quite a bit of waters, so thats good.

But was closer to 1.2l of cola a day. Will drop that down now

Really struggling with the oats, especially in the afternoon. Its just too damn hot. The rest is manageable.

So thursday morning I weighed in at the gym,

I was 205.6


This morning, 201,1

Make at night, let it cool, throw in the fridge and eat cold.

Got you through a lot or put you in a position where you have a lot to loose? No judgement here, I get heavy in my offseason etc and I do eat those sortve things too on occasion, but I have to be doing the work to deserve them. You got a lot to go and trust me, food isn't going to get you through dark times, trust me, I have learnt this multiple times.

Yeah i know. its a crutch that wont really help in the long run.

i was saying it more as a joke

Now you've seen the results, you know what this is all about. Empire is right, this is all in your mind. If you do not set goals, and don't have a plan, you will never go anywhere. Stick to the plan. The cravings will come, but once again, is that packet of jelly beans or sausage roll worth looking in the mirror and disliking what you see? Now it's time for the long haul. Stay consistent, put the instant gratification behind you, focus on where you want to go and your reasons behind it, and you will see awesome results. Please keep us updated, I am rooting for you to make a success out of this and to start feeling healthy again

I'm waiting for him to break that 200kg mark that hasn't been possible for a while, and see how that drives and motivated him to drive past that 150kg goal... Small steps over time accumulate to massive results.

Gym was a little tough this morning,
Stomach has been all kinds of screwed up since the weekend (I think that might be a contributing factor to the major weight loss)

So riding bike I only managed about 15min before I thought it was unsafe to proceed without new undies.

So far I have had 1 bag of jelly beans, But that was this weekend, No other cheats so far. I have toned down on the cola/sugar free drinks and am focusing more on a smidge of lemon in water.
Caffine intake is also low because i drink tea/coffe with milk.

Bro, as I say, don't buy the shit, stick to the plan, you asked for a quick win and eating jelly beans at this stage is not a quick win and this is also another reason why I hate giving out free advice as people don't stick to it 110%. End of the day you want the results, and you know having that on a plan like this isn't going to help you. Your choice but i will sign off from anymore advice on this thread now.

It was the last pack in my house, Serious moment of weakness.

I have gone from eating, no lie...2-3kgs of sweets a week, down to that one bag since last week wednesday.

I really do appreciate all the advice that you have given me and I promise I am trying my darndest to follow it. So far that was my only cheat/cockup.

Thanks again for the help so far, I will continue on the advice you gave me , wont expect anymore from you. Sorry man
