Bump. For replies.

Thank you for the reply. While on the tablet, I was hungry most of the time. According to the Doctor, hunger & sudden weight gain is expected side effect. After stopping, I try to eat about 1000 calories. I have even tried Atkins diet again, but no weight loss this time & my calorie intake was about 700. Losing 20Kg while…

Thank you for replying.

Thanks for replying. Do you have before & after or measured? Through diet & exercise, I managed to lose around 12 Kgs in 1 year. Lost another 6 Kg, got to my healthy BMI, that's when I felt my body was getting slimmer. Unfortunately, gained the 6Kg back. :( I am tired from dieting & exercising and seeing not losing weight.…

Thank you for replying.

How long did it take? Did you measure or have before after for motivation?

Thanks everyone for replying.

Thanks for replying everyone.

Thanks for the reply. :)

You mean you end up losing more weight than what the app says you will in 5 weeks?

Thanks everyone. 3 days in. Exercising lesser than usual, but I'm doing something.

From what you have written, are you using the elliptical machine only as cardio workout? How's it going? I like the elliptical & used to do that mostly for about 40 mins. But, I am worried whether it will put on muscles on legs & the last place I need to gain is my legs. Did you experience anything of that sort? Thanks.

Thanks everyone for replying. I'll gain back more if I don't something about it. There's nothing worse than having to start from the beginning.

You are right. I used to enjoy my workouts. But I am lagging now. Thanks for replying.

Thank you! So, it is going to take time!

Exactly what I wanted to know! :)

Ohh.. Thanks a lot for the replies! Dropped the idea! Maybe I'll consider wearing it with dresses. That's about it! :)

That's an awesome progress all of you. In what duration have you lost that much weight?

That's an awesome progress! & good to hear that your blood sugar levels returned to normal. Thanks for sharing the success! It helps!

& like you mentioned if I m still uncomfortable, I rather consider inserts for my shoe. I hope it works with Nimbus. From what I understood from my previous shoes, is it possible for a person to have a neutral feet with medium arch, but the forefoot alone rolls inside?

Hi, Thanks for replying. The lady at the store analysed my gait & feet. She was of the conclusion I have neutral feet. I was fitted with a Nimbus 18. I found it very cushioned & comfortable. I just finished running in my Kayano & yeah there is a slight pain at the arch. So, again that's the wrong shoe. Sticking with the…

I hope I get the right shoe this time. The pain in my feet is interfering with my workout. :(

No, she did suggest the nimbus. But, my long history of shoes, the insides of the forefoot wear out easily & I'll be mostly walking a bit tilted to the insides. & I'm moderate arched. That's what is confusing me. Let me try this for today. The store did offer an exchange with Nimbus 18 if I'm not comfortable in Kayano.

This is what I understood. Nimbus - supinator or neutral Kayano - overpronator or neutral Hope that's right.

Yeah, the lady suggested a nimbus for a supinated to neutral feet. I tried running in them. Well-cushioned. But, Though I am moderate arched with neutral stride, I seem to give more pressure to the inner sides of the forefoot. Tried out the Kayano & found it a bit more stable! Haven't run in them yet. They offered I can…

Yeah, Kayano is for overpronators. & I seem to have a moderate arch with slight pronation on the forefoot. When they analyses my gait & feet, I was told that I have neutral feet. But looking into my old shoes, the inner area of the forefoot seem to have worn out easily. Is it possible to have a moderate arch with slight…

What did you feel about the Kayano? I tried on the Nimbus 18 which they recommended for me, ran & loved the cushioning. But, do Kayano give more stability? I felt that. I could be wrong too.

Yeah. I felt the same. It wasn't cushioned enough. Got Asics gel Kayano 22. Hope that works for me. So far, good.

Thanks everyone for replying. Got the Asics gel kayano 22. So far, good. :)
