My final weigh-in this week, and it did not disappoint! This is why I don’t worry about the odd “birthday blip” on my weight loss and diabetic reversal journey.
I weighed in this morning and – fanfare please….
I am now an increasingly svelte 16 st 7.7 lbs (231.7 lbs / 105.3 kg). That’s a 3.4 lb (1.54 kg) loss since my last weigh-in on Thursday, and a 5.9 lb (2.67 kg) loss since my Tuesday weigh-in! That is the single biggest weekly weight loss I’ve had since starting this process in December!
Even when you account for my 1.7 lb blip, that is still a 4.4 lb total drop this week. Remember, my target average weight loss to hit my 6-month goal is 2.56 lbs (1.16kg) per week; this week’s incredible progress keeps me firmly on track. I’m over the moon, walking on clouds – and I’m light enough to do it! 😝
So – let’s look at the overall weight loss stats:
Progress Update • Week 11 – March 7, 2026 (from December 20th)
Exercise status: 1.25km swim (1 * 250m + 2 x 500m) and second weekly outdoor walk/run sessions completed.
Fasting Status: Third 36-hour fast completed.
Since I started this new lifestyle in December, just 11 weeks ago, I’ve lost 26.2 lbs – just shy of 12kg!!! So that’s now over 1kg per week!
If you go back to when I was diagnosed in 2023, I’ve lost 33.8lbs (15.3kg)! And that equates to 12.73% of my starting body weight! As you may recall, there is a key window stated by diabetic clinicians which is – losing 10-15% of your body weight is often sufficient to REVERSE type 2 diabetes!
At 231.7lbs I’m now in spitting distance of another big milestone – I’ll soon be out of the 230s and into the 220 lb range! I’m almost halfway through the 16-stone range, with 15 stone in my sights. And only another 5 kgs to get to a huge milestone – under 100kg! From triple to double digits!
All very exciting stuff! I genuinely get such a buzz when I have not one, but two days like this in a single week!
