(Sorry iDave, i’m not actually better than you… sexier maybe with nicer boobs, but not better 😛 )
A while ago I mentioned I was going to weightwatchers with a patient, the extreme disappointment (that can only be compared to finding out a kitten has raped your best friend in a drug induced frenzy) stuck with me for, well… minutes! I was not happy… I had to help this patient, mainly because that’s my job 😆
So 2 weeks ago I sat down with him and drew up a food diary, meal planner, clear and simple shopping list, booked weekly slots (hehe ‘slots’) in the diary and a “gentlemans agreement” which the patient signed agreeing to try his best and be honest when he slips up so we can discuss what needs to change to make it a better and more effective plan… 2 hours of dedicated 1:1 time each week to explore and hopefully improve his relationship with food.
10 weeks at weightwatchers, total weight loss = 2lbs
2 weeks with me, total loss so far = 12lbs.
He’s not hungry all the time, and he’s more motivated than anybody has seen for years 🙂 I know he wont keep up the 6lbs a week loss but he’s made some big changes in his eating patterns, diet and his relationship with food in just 2 weeks 😀
I know nobody will care about this or bother replying… but I’m chuffed and very proud of him!
As I referenced iDave in the thread title I figured its best to clear this up now… I haven’t stolen the iDiet 🙂 He’s still eating bread and potatoes, and there is milk in his diet…. the only similarity is he now has no sugar in his drinks.
I’m chuffed 😀
