Yeah its a really drastic measure, but if its an option. I don't think as a beginner you should be looking to dehydrate more than 2-3kg.
Thanks for the advice.
I am going to try and keep up the diet and exercise. A week prior I will reassess.
You need to drop like 3 or 4 kilos for one day? I did that in December by turning the heat up in my car for a 2 hour drive.

Yeah a few KG for the day. I would be surprised if they continuously checked our BMI after that.
How was day 1? Did you feel full and how did rhe exercise make you feel?

Even though it looks like small portions. The food is filling. Can barely finish each portion.
I have managed to go down a pound from yesterday.
12 stone 13.75 pounds to
12 stone 12.75 pounds.
I exercised twice yesterday, total of 650 calories burned. Only ate around 1200ish calories.
19 days to go.
Do you have any long term fitness goals/ideas for post medical? What you've been saying so far doesn't seem very sustainable in the long term.
Find it a bit unnerving those are the fitness requirements to be a copper tbh. Are they higher for traffic cops and those on patrols etc? When you've mentioned they don't even continue to long term assessment is even more dissapointing. It's very easy to drop 3-4kg in a day to make weight, which means potentially accepting the obese o.O

All my previous roles did not require any fitness. To be honest, I did not even think I would get this far, from 18,000 applicants to prospective 80.
We was told 5-6 months ago that we would need to get to a max 30 BMI however, I have spent more time revising than exercising.
I would love to take this opportunity and would hate if my weight got in the way of being a public servant.
Will switch to a moderate diet and switch to regular exercise post medical.
Thanks for the input.
Updates? This quite a drastic change but I hope you haven't given up on your dreams!
My apologies everyone, since work and training, I haven had much time to think about anything else.
Update; 4 days to go (Tuesday is Assessment).
I am currently 12 stone 7.76 pounds, which makes me 29.7 BMI. I have managed to hit it.
Today-Tomorrow and Saturday,
I have started a Juice Diet (Obsidian Juices). Which is like 4 cold pressed juices a day for 3 days. Around 1000 calories a day. I still burn around 600-900 calories a day. Losing weight steady.
The drinks are absolutely horrible and I am 100% hungry !
Will update what weight/BMI I am in the morning.
Thanks
