Hi!
3 weeks ago I was 19.7 stone (273lbs), I started cutting down on carbs and eating high protein and fat but in very small portions regularly, my body went into ketosis and my appetite has now almost disappeared.
I did a weigh in today and i'm now 18.5 stone (259lbs), if I keep this up I could reach my target of 13st (182lbs) by spring.
I haven't even started exercising yet!!
I think I will give myself a cheat day once a week but not go nuts with it :happy:

Hi and welcome to MFP! Looks like some pretty good progress so far! Great job! The first lbs come off faster than the rest, be prepared for the rate of loss to slow down as it usually does. Developing good habits in eating and adding in exercise will certainly help you in reaching your goals. With exercise, start slow and find something you like so that you are more likely to keep up with it, and then build on it as you progress.
All the best in reaching your goals!0
