Woo! That's a heck of a milestone.I matched my lowest adult weight today. I've not been this light since 1991. 1 more lb and I'll be at a weight I've not been since I was 15 in 1981!
yeah it's been quite a year or so. Just another 12 lbs to reach my challenge goal of a healthy bmi. I have a photo of myself from before I started losing weight but I don't have the digital version yet. If I can get hold of it I'll do a before and after at the end of the challenge period. I should be roughly 1/2 the weight I was in the original photo by then!
Started my own weight loss on 7.1.19, once again after multiple attempts over the years. This time I am going to do weight loss without weighing myself at all, since potentially slow progress discourages me so greatly. I'm gonna weigh myself at the end of the year and hopefully I have lost targeted 40 kilos from 120kg. Ofc if get thin before that, I can up my calories to maintenance, but I doubt it.
My diet is very simple, two meals of max. 1000 kcal per day, some foods are more than that but most are less. I eat shit like candies less than once week, and sometimes may eat out, but that is it. So far that has worked well, and putting on socks has gotten easier.
Biggest risk is definitely when I am not home for more than couple of days, since I always eat more then, which isn't huge problem. The problem is getting home and dealing with the initial hunger of eating less. Usually I start then snacking and whole thing spirals out of control.
Between these two posts, it seems as though you've made great progress. How do you feel now? Do you see progress when you look at photos or in the mirror? Are your clothes feeling looser? Has anyone else commented?Progress update:
I can put socks on like a normal person without extra maneuvers. Next one is probably putting shoes on while standing without discomfort and pants slipping down.

02/14: 98.3 Dropped the extra weight from last week, very happy to see the number moving in the right direction again.02/07:100.1. Last week was not great, I cheated almost every day. This week I have a veggies-only day in addition to the regular diet. We'll see how that goes.
Minor update. Weighed in at 149.6 this morning. Yay02/15: 151lbs
02/08: 150.4lbs
02/01: 150.8lbs
01/28: 152lbs
01/21: 152.2lbs
01/15: 154.4lbs
01/08: 154.4lbs
I've been hoovering around 151 despite being under my caloric goal all this week. I noticed that I could comfortably go down a belt buckle hole, but its a bit frustrating not seeing that number do down.
Sounds about right.My app says I did 20,294 steps and burned 638 calories is that right?

First of all, welcome to the thread!So I decided to start working out since my belly started to worry me out, plus I want to say that I reached my 30's in good shape. Now I'm weigh in 240 lbs.
After a lot of time I finally decided to use the gym that I have in my building. So far I have been running in the treadmill for 20 minutes and using the spin bike for 15 minutes.
Also, yesterday I started doing some dumbbell exercises but so far I don't know if my routine is optimal. Also I tried to do squats with one dumbbell and I started to have a lot of pain on my knees, which I assume was because I'm overweight.
So yeah, I want to start improving my routine, but I don't know which could be the best routine for someone like me who first needs to lose some weight in order to avoid injuries.
My gym has
- 1 Treadmill
- 2 Spin Bikes
- An Elliptical
- Set of Dumbbells
- Set of gymnastic mattresses
First of all, welcome to the thread!
I see no mention of your diet in your post, which is 80% of what weight management comes down to, so I'll encourage you to read the OP, which has a lot of advice on that score.
As for exercise, while the effect on your actual weight loss will be minimal, you can get great results if you have a goal in mind.
If you want a Hollywood physique, I'd suggest that building some muscle will take you toward that goal. You could start by using the dumbbells with a set routine like this one. I'd head over to the Fitness thread in Hangouts for more advice though. The good news if you're carrying some extra weight and have never seriously weight trained before is that you'll be able to build up muscle while on a caloric deficit, at least for a while.
If you also want to be able to climb a flight of stairs or run for a train without feeling like you're going to die, I would suggest a short duration but high intensity routine. I do sprints (jog to the end of a field, sprint back as hard as you can) for ten minutes twice a week and this accomplishes that goal. On wet weather days, I do 3 sets of burpees (15/12/9) interspersed with 3 sets of squats (body weight only, 15/12/9) with no breaks. It takes 15 minutes out of my day, but it keeps me reasonably fit.
Again though, the Fitness thread is your friend here.
Sure thing. If you have specific needs, absolutely go see a specialist.Thanks for the answer.
I think that I should go to an specialist who could help me develop a diet according to my situation
Your BMI says you're underweight, but you're also unusually tall, which means that BMI is much less useful. You probably need to be eating more and exercising to build up more muscle.I'm wondering if I my weight is healthy. My length is 195 (30 years) and my weight is 65kg. Everyday I walk around 35km but I try not to eat a lot
Well I didn't realize it had been two months since my last update. Figures I don't follow-through immediately after requesting to be added to the tracking spreadsheet. Typical of me and my history of falling off track.
My scale's display is officially broken, but the voice still works. Here is my update:
Goal - 245 lbs
Current weight - 271.2
Loss since last post - .2 lbs
I have lost 1/5th of a lb in two months. I have gone up and down, and for two days was actually under 270 but I do not have the proof to show it obviously. I have decided that I will invest in a new modern scale and begin participating weekly in these threads. And, I'm going to cut out 'cheat days' for the rest of the year and just hold myself to account every day, and I'm going to start counting my calories (I have started already, honestly.)
Edit: And I want to say, it's incredibly inspiring as always to read about the progress my fellow Erans are making. Well done! :D
This is actually the first time I can see that you posted in this thread, which is weird, because I remember your last update. Was that in the last challenge?Well it has been a while since I posted an update, and here it is.
Previous Weight - 271.2
Current Weight - 246.2
Loss since last post - 25 lbs
I am nearly at the goal I had set for myself of 245lbs. I have decided that 245lbs isnt good enough, and my new goal is 230lbs by Canada Day. I really feel like I can do it. I have continued my focus on abstaining from sugar, intermittant fasting and have also stepped up my excersise given I now have more energy day to day.
