Since 4 Dec I have dropped 35 pounds to 285 from 320. Now yeah I know that’s like the queen mary losing a deck chair but I am feeling much better. I want to get to 240. Realistically can’t see myself below that.
Intermittent fasting with 1 meal a day. It’s not that hard to do. Still eat most things I want and still have some Capt and Diet Coke watching the games on the weekend.
No calorie counting. The only rule is for 23 hours only water black coffee or black tea.
So will see where it goes from here.

I was at 214 now at 200 i've been down to 195 but I love to eat so I put 5 back on. I want to be at 180-185 but I hate exercising, I lost my weight by 8/16 fast it worked but I hit a wall and haven't lost anything for a while, I love sweets

Surfcasting Full Throttle

Thumbs up

Crap! I look at a carb and I gain 5 pounds - freaking sucks!!!
Went out for dinner Saturday night and had a little super bowl food but nothing crazy and boom 5 pounds - Crap! It goes off a lot slower than it comes on. I'll hit the gym hard this week and hopefully that'll help.

No alcohol since the first, drinking athletic brand non alcoholic IPA which aren’t bad, lots of exercise especially with the lack of snow, the only issue is all my pants are swimming on me. Down from a high of 205 last fall to 173, couple more lbs and I will be back to the weight I wrestled in senior year of high school. Bagged up all my 38 pants and a lot of the 36 waste, getting some new threads soon.

Congrats man. I'm still holding at 195 to 200.I have cheated a few times with Sicilian bread, a good cab and pasta but I'm back on the total keto routine. It does suck but I tolerate it because i feel so much better.

No boat, back in the suds.

Just shy of 50 down with the OMAD
Started 4 Dec. from 321 to 271 The rate slowed a bit but pretty steady and I now find waiting for my one meal at dinner pretty easy. Yes you get a bit ravenous at that point but this seems to be working for me without ‘dieting’ per say

Had some carbs this weekend and boom 5 pounds but I am all good. I really like OMAD and healthy keto but I am not going to be the carb police. I love the North End and I gotta hit Federal Hill soon! Everything in moderation - Enjoy Life - Take care and be healthy!

That time of year again.
Been staying around the same weight, doing intermittent fasting and Keto.
For 2024 going to try and get to the gym more. we'll see how it goes.
How is everyone else doing?
