You ever soak your hands in ice cold water? Particularly the top of your wrist (if that IS your problem - look up the wrist and TFCC)...you might consider asking about an arthroscopy? You never described exactly what pain you are feeling in your hand. If it is a tingling in your hand that gets worse then it might be a form of RSI or muscle bruise but if it is a sharp cracking/snapping pain in any part of your wrist joint then you might have damaged the ligaments in your wrist. Swelling is also a major issue which is why I mentioned the ice. Wearing a wrist brace might also help if you do not have insurance for an arthroscopy (assuming pain in your hand continues after maintenance). You can do this man! I'll be really proud to see you looking slim and trim at events in the future. | ||

I hope that everything goes well and I even recommended one of my really close friends to this diet who has similar health concerns as you do. I know this is asking for a lot, but if my friend was to go through with this diet would you be willing to answer any questions and be sort of his role model please? Best of Luck, Pandas of War :D Well I can answer some questions, but I don't think I'm extremely knowledgeable about the diet. I'm following what Rob tells me to do. So maybe he could talk to Rob about it? I linked his facebook in the blog, or www.facebook.com/paleorobbie : ) And thanks for saying hi : ) | ||

You posted almost the exact same type of blog a little over a year ago in dec 2011. You said you would keep everyone updated of your progress and encouraged people to lose weight with you and post their progress too. You made like one update and then never again looked at that blog. In that blog you stated you weighed 315 and weren't happy about it. 1 year later, you post the same blog again saying you're 312 and you're not happy about it, so in the span of an entire year you didn't stick to your original plan at all and lost no weight. I'm all for people losing weight, but it always starts with effort., so it was disappointing to see you didn't stick with it last year. Hopefully, it works out for you this time, but if it doesn't, you only have to look into the mirror about why it failed. Really really good point. I have no solid answer for it, because well I blew your trust last time right? Best I can say is sorry about then, and that I wanted to show results (I'm down 10~) before I even posted this. Was thinking about waiting 2 weeks, but I thought it would be nice to have it posted within 1 week just to have a post at the start. And last time I was posting to help me out and try and do better through community help. This time I'm just updating you and will be working on the diet regardless of people supporting or not. (Even though its awesome to see people wishing me to do well). Anyway like I said I have no solid answer for it... And I completely understand ur skeptisicm. Hopefully within a few weeks or months you can have a little more trust. =] | ||

May I suggest posting a weekly update (and by this I mean for a significant period of time)? If you ever feel your resolve slipping, TL's the ultimate picker-upper/hold-you-to-your-word source (just ask the Ex-BW pro cowoker guy). | ||

I started this last Thursday and was at 312 pounds (141.5kg) and just very inactive and unhealthy feeling. As of this Friday I was at 301.5 pounds (136.7kg) Long term fat loss is going to come off slowly, ~5kg = ~38'000kcal which would take weeks to burn without eating anything, period, so dont get caught up on spiky weight changes (in both directions, they will happen for many reasons), just focus on long term changes, thats the best advice i can give.

Having a diet is good, excercising is better, but honestly.. if you want to lose weight, easiest way is to eat LESS. No offense, but that's all there's to it. Eat less! Sure, it will be hard in the start, especially when your brain is telling you that you're hungry, or saying that you have headaches, or can't sleep or w/e. But c'mon. If your really obese, you can probably last several weeks on water alone. Your body will be forced to consume the fat. I'm not telling you to starve yourself. Heck, I've never been really fat myself. But anytime i had a slight overweight I simply lost it by eating less. If normally you eat 3 sandwiches as breakfast, eat 2 now instead (even more important for dinner). Sure you'll THINK you'll be hungry, but as long as you don't compensate by snacking and keep strict with 3 meals a day (And less food per time than normal) I assure you that you will lose weight! Don't know if this way is healthy or not, but pretty much everyone I know simply eat less and quit snacking when they try to lose weight. And every single one that really put their back into it succeeded. Diets my ass, you just need to eat less and have a strong will! | ||

Why not get a treadmill desk? You can play Starcraft and walk while you're doing it. I BET you that you won't even notice it. Games tend to have that effect on people in that it can suppress pain. (There is actually studies where it physically suppresses the hormones and stuff). I have not tried this before as I am not in dire need to lose any weight, but I would really really be interested to see how you felt about it. Looking forward to a super skinny and sexy Sheth. Good luck! | ||

GL Yep thanks. I realize it may go up from where it is, it may go down or not change at all next week. The main thing is that what I'm eating is healthy and will result in long term benefits. Kind of like the stock market, it may go up or down on certain days, and you shouldn't be worried about that, just worry about long term changes : ) | ||
