Research.....

Right - weigh in and I have plummeted below the 9okg mark to 89.8kg - slow progress, but I have been reading about the risks involved in rapid weight loss:

Rapid weight loss creates physical demands on the body. Possible serious risks include:

• Gallstones, which occur in 12% to 25% of people losing large amounts of weight over several months.
• Dehydration, which can be avoided by drinking plenty of fluids.
• Malnutrition, usually from not eating enough protein for weeks at a time.
• Electrolyte imbalances, which rarely can be life threatening.

Thankfully - with the exception of dehydration, which I tend to work on at the weekend, I have avoided most of these serious risks.

Other side effects of rapid weight loss include:

• Headaches - normally following dehydration avoidance sessions.
• Irritability - no chance, it fucking annoys me that this is a side effect.
• Fatigue - thankfully not happen..Zzzzzzzzzzzz
• Dizziness - sometimes felt during dehydration avoidance sessions.
• Constipation - Shit no, I blame the prune juice!
• Menstrual irregularities - Is it irregular that I'm not???
• Hair loss - I am in a WORLD OF SHIT!
• Muscle loss - Muscle? As in love muscle? OH DOUBLE SHIT!
  

The dangers of rapid weight loss increase with the time spent on the diet, therefore I call for a week off! All in favour say aye!?
