Weightloss CHECK IN : dont give up (Part 1)

I was thisclose to ordering a take away just now, finger hovering over the payment button.
But I went and had some tea (oolong) and said I would think again once I’d drank my tea.
Well did the job and didnt order after all :grin: I might have been able to squeeze it in calorie wise but knew I’d feel like crap which could have made me over eat tomorrow and it’s a waste of money anyway. Small win.

Dang!! That’s amazing!! My goal is to be 125lbs and solid muscle. Don’t really have a time frame for it yet but working hard on myself with fitness to keep myself on track with my sobriety since this is a major healthy outlet for me.

23kg of fat not muscle lol. Not ideal lol

@apes2020

I dropped a ton of weight then gained a ton of it back via fat over a period of a year, of course pounding back booze and living off of empty carbs had alot to do with it.

@AdvntrLane I don’t know your age but I was small for a long time avg. 140lbs at 6’0 I joined the army at that weight, basic training had me eating a ton of calories and obviously burning them off, but I gained 50lbs. Over 19 weeks.
Any fitness plan starts in the kitchen
Your best bet for weight gain, eat clean, and figure out your caloric intake and what your using you would be surprised how much you might be under eating,

Here is my weekly Sunday weigh in/check in… Im down 3.2 lbs in one week, like HOLY FREAKING COW!

Starting weight (8 weeks ago today): 151.8 lbs.
Last week’s weight (7 weeks ago today): 144.4 lbs.
Today’s weight (8 weeks later): 141.2 lbs.

Total weight loss in 8 weeks: 10.6 lbs!

I can’t barely believe it honestly. I’ve upped the intensity of my 30 min cycle rides and have upped my daily water intake to at least 100 oz of water (verses 80 oz), but usually Im drinking about 112 oz per day at the minimum.

I’ve also scaled back on the snacking a bit after dinner. Disclaimer: I fully realize that this type of weight loss weekly is not usual or ordinary and most likely will not continue at this rate. Again, I’m quite stunned at the results the scale revealed. Im going to continue to keep myself hydrated and eating right with minimal snacking. Also Im going to keep plugging away at my daily cycle workouts. We are about a week and a half away until we get our treadmill delivered, so that will add a new dimension of daily exercise for me as well.

Have a great Sunday and week ahead of us everyone and keep up the great work!!

Switching from noom to ww was a great idea. Not that I think the program is better, only that I always do well in the beginning of a program and then I just start to plateau. I guess I should just move from program to program so I can constantly lose and never plateau. :joy:

Noom = -4lbs
WW = -2lbs
Total = -6lbs
Remaining = -16lbs

Sadly it took 4 months to lose 6 lbs and at this rate I’ll take 10 more months!!! I’d rather be down by summer.

I’m 30. Thank you for your service brother. I’m currently serving myself.
Yeah you were very small for your height that’s for sure. I barely gained anything while there as I’ve mentioned before. My metabolism is crazy high and eating right was good there I just didn’t see much difference. In AIT I didn’t have much fat on me but the fat I did loose I traded it for muscle and yet was the same weight. Two seasons ago I got down the meals to gain but I then went into a massive down spiral of drinking and didn’t keep up. Then I slowed down and figured out my weight lifting techniques. And of course after that little bit of time I went onto another bender of drinking very heavily which lead me to this year… so now I’m finally sober and connecting all my planning over a these past couple years to finally push to the person I want to be and look like.

Hi all just checking in.
Walked for 2.5 hours today, I think around 10 miles, did yoga when I got back.
Lunch at 1pm and dinner at 5pm, no snacks and lots of fruit and vegetables.
I’m sure I’ll feel the benefits tomorrow but right now I’m very tired :sleeping::smile:
