			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As an update on my last post on <a href="http://marc.boschma.cx/2008/05/05/weight-loss/">weight loss</a> I have only 6.5kgs left to go in achieving my goal weight!</p>
<p>The bad days have been harder and harder to be bad on. I have lost interest in so many of the junk foods I use to eat. They make me sick now. Chocolate however remains ever present.</p>
<p>It will be interesting to see how I transition to maintenance mode once I achieve my goal.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From my early twenties I have always carried a little too much weight. Especially around the middle. I remember fondly eating as much as I liked when I was growing up and always being slim.</p>
<p>I have been on <span class="vcard"><a class="fn org url" rel="nofollow" rev="vote-abstain" href="http://www.sureslim.com.au/">Sureslim</a></span> in the past and did lose weight but it was a real struggle for me to get down close to my goal weight and there seemed to be no bright way forward post the weight loss. I have also visited the gym and always managed to build muscle under the fat. This time round I have turned to <span class="vcard"><a href="http://www.bodytrim.com.au/" class="fn org url" rev="vote-for">Body Trim</a></span> and after three weeks in I am losing weight, eating more and not feeling that it is a struggle! <em>I don&#8217;t even have to go to the gym!</em></p>
<p>On average I have been losing 1.5<abbr title="kilograms">kg</abbr> per week. With about 12<abbr title="kilograms">kg</abbr> to lose in total I am starting to feel I can make it and more importantly sustain it.</p>
<p>While that is all positive the Body Trim folk have some way to go with facilitating the education process. I think this is especially true of those that have been through other systems.</p>
<p>The DVDs and book are concise. Which is to say there is a real possibility of missing important information the first or even second time around. At least it was for me. Their forum however makes up for it.</p>
<p>To me the most impressive part of the system is they tell you <em>why</em> you need to do things and importantly <em>when</em>. My favourite aspect is the once a week <em>bad</em> day. Initially I went over board and ate what proved to be the most sickening pizza I had ever had. It was partially the pizza, but just as importantly I think it was also a change in my tastes. Dark chocolate however has proved to be resistive to such changes!</p>
