Cambridge Weight Plan Ian Strachan

A short note to pass on my best wishes that you are managing through things, and not tempted too much by over-eating due to lockdown in the house.

Diet products are still available, and can be delivered to your door. Just no actual weigh-ins.
Happy to do virtual weigh-ins though😊

All the best and hopefully we will all get through this.

20 August and time to weigh myself - having recovered enough from a severe allergic reaction that saw me covered in a nasty red rash from head to toe.... and quite sore/itchy. So, after a year of varying health, I was up at 19st 13lbs !!!
Time for action!!
Started step 1b taking 4 Cambridge meal replacement products a day and by the next Monday (27th August) another weigh in - and guess what? 7lbs lost. Half a stone! Well happy (even almost a smile and a quiet shout of joy lol)

Second week and struggled a bit with 3 days misbehaving (that means taking food with sugar, a black pudding supper.....)

So weigh in this morning and dropped 3lbs! Now 19st 3lbs so thats 10lb lost in 2 weeks. Happy at that. I've been trying to increase my activity which for me is walking/counting steps. I'm not the fastest walker given my knackered knees but it still helps to burn a handful of calories.

On target then to get towards 16st for Christmas.

With 4 months to go until Christmas, I was looking back at 2016, and at photographs taken after I won Male Slimmer of the Year at Cambridge Weight Plan National Convention. At 16st 4lb, we bought this tweed coat at an airport shop on our way to London and a photoshoot.
Now, after a rough 12 months of unexplained illnesses, I need to get back to this fighting weight !
So I have 3st 9lbs to lose in 4 months. I am back on a weight loss journey!
Anyone want to join?

3 years ago tonight , at 11.30pm, I enjoyed my final glass of whisky and embarked on a journey to lose weight. On 12 June 2015, I started the Cambridge Weight Plan Step 3 with the aim to regain better health. At 27+stones, I was wheelchair bound; on morphine patches for pain; a mask for the CPAP for my severe sleep apnoea; high blood pressure tablets; and just been told that I was too heavy and too ill to survive an operation to replace both my knees which had no cartilage left - bone on bone causing immense pain.
Other related health issues too.
Pain relief supplemented by half a bottle of whisky or more a night.

Back in June 2015 I made the biggest decision I had ever taken to change my life- the aim to lose 70kg 0r in excess of 11 stone.
The following 6 months saw me lose 8 stones, and make great progress to solve the sleep apnoea and get rid of the darth Vader face mask to allow to breath safely throughout the night; reduce the high blood pressure medication; and be able to get back on my feet.
The plan works.
It wasn't costly. In fact I saved money from no more whisky; no takeaways; and the ability to be able to use transport again.

Nowadays, 3 years later, I'm happy to help other folk lose weight if they really want that. Simply get in touch.

There are different ways of measuring if you need to lose weight. Measuring bmi using your height and weight is one way. More emphasis is being put on waist recently. Either way, if your clothes tell you that you need a slimmer summer then get in touch with me. You might not need to lose 11st like I did, but having achieved it then I'd be happy to help you.

A quick and simple way to measure if you're the right weight for your height
