That’s amazing, how did you do it . 

Thanks Pree. I limited my carb intake to 50g per day. I basically ate fruit, veg and meat. I also ran 5km 3-4 times a week. Drank 2-3 litres of water daily and had small treats (within my calorie and carb limits). I had a 800 calorie deficit from meals daily (i only consumed 1200). I am not a breakfast eater, so add intermittent fasting.  

What app is this hun ☘️ 

Well done. Would you say this was strict? And were you hungry with 1200 budget?  

👏🏻👏🏻  

Good job!!! 

Well done girl!!! keep up tge goid work I list 16ks byt fell of tge bus and need to loose 6kgs again byt will get there soonest. 

@WaistAway… i bought a smart scale that is compatible with the OkOk app. So that’s OkOk 

@itsjunglewomansa… i was not hungry at all hey. Sometimes i just ate to not starve myself. What helped were the big meals 600kcal each (two meals) so i was always full. Drank lots of tea aswell. Yes i was strict to not go over 2000 cal even on days i was overindulging. I could still drink 3 glasses of wine and still be within my limit too.  

@Lizette… i believe you can do it. Jump back onto the wagon and take it one step at a time. 🌸 

@Morticia, Just Bananas and That Niqaabi Girl… thank you  

Well done Abby 🎉🎉🎉. That chart that shows your weight progress is it an app? That shows BMI ? 

wow amazing well done. 

Congratulations on the weightloss! That's amazing! But I do have to say that personally I hate using BMI to track 'healthy weight' because it's archaic and it doesn't take into account a lot of factors like muscle vs fat % so if you have a lit of muscles and your weight is 'high' it will show obese but actually muscle weighs more than fat. Also it doesn't consider bone density or any other anatomical factors. It's an okay guide but should DEFINITELY not be the main or even most important way to track your journey 😊 

@FV143 i 100% agree with you. I also feel like it was not made for African women.  

@Frieda, thank you. @Tsaki, it is an app linked to my smart scale. The App is called OkOk 

well done Abby
