120/101/85
Today is my 180th day on the (modified) Dukan Diet and I now weigh 100.8kg. I have lost 18.8kg (41lb) in that time, which averages just over 730g/week and gives a BMI of 31.8.
The rate of loss is still slowing, which I put down to a combination of CrossFit converting fat to muscle, trying to find a new balance in my fat-protein-carb ratios to provide enough energy for the demands of CrossFit, and trying to keep on top of carb creep in everyday food management.
Although I am eating a ~80% paleo diet at home, I’m still buying my lunches and that often results in poor options due to the nature of the convenience foods near where I work. I expect it won’t be too long before I’ll bite the bullet and make my own lunches. That’s something I’ve been avoiding so far as I’m both lazy and don’t want to feel too obsessive about everything I put in my mouth.
Anyway, the weight loss is progressing steadily, I’m feeling fantastic, I’m getting fitter, and I’m increasingly feeling like a new person. I have not weighed this “little” since I was a teenager, so it’s a great feeling.
