May as I ask what your starting weight was?

Andrew mate, that's horrible
I hope you are slowly on the mend now? All the best, wishing you a speedy recovery!
I have heard many good things about fasting and know someone personally who use to weigh 130kg and is now set to weigh in at 76 point something on Sunday! This is actually the basis for where my regime came from, although fasting for me working full time is not an option.
Instead I try to have really low days from Sunday to Wednesday (Thursday morning being weigh in) then I cycle between 1200-1560 Thursday and Friday. Saturday is generally 2500 calories then back to strict the very next day. In three weeks I'm down 3.5kg so it's definitely keeping my body guessing.
Marc, I haven't done a whole lot of core work just mainly kettle bells and arm weights. As for legs, that's all been from cardio related exercises (I'm the fittest and toned I think I've EVER been). I did decide to give planks a go and managed to do 4. 2 x 20 secs and 2 x 25 secs. Also managed to do this splits again!
I'll definitely have to start adding in more weights to my regime and get back into jogging once I've lost a few more kg's.
Bread isn't really so bad at all. Even white bread rolls are generally not so bad calorie wise. I find if I eat what my body is craving within moderation and portion controlled, then I do still lose weight. I love those Forme yoghurts
I also like the Ski Soleil brand as the vanilla is quite low cal and delicious with banana!
Thanks for the heads up with toasting the bread, I'll have to make a habit of it!
At the end of the day, it's really all about finding a balance that works for everyone as an individual. For me, it's cycling and being super strict most days so I can have a cheat day. For some one else it may be different though.
