Endomorph fat loss in 7 months

Hi endomorphs,

I’m looking to see how much fat you guys lost and what diet, how many calories and what kind of exercises you did in order to lose all the fat. Success stories would be helpful with before and after photos.

Not quite a success story yet, but I'm down somewhere around 35-40 pounds (not sure exactly how much because I started my journey without a scale for the first week and lost most of the weight in the first three) in this last month. I stay around 1100 to 1200 calories, low on carbs, high on fruits, veggies and proteins. I do a lot of yoga and push ups, sits ups, squats and try to run for 20 minutes at least twice a week.

I'm 5' 8", currently 200 lbs. BMI says I'm obese, but I had my BF tested at 13% recently.

I put on weight extremely easily, both muscle and fat. So diet is critical to keep the fat off. I put on almost 15 lbs over winter, even though I run 5 days a week and hit the gym 3 times per week.. because I let my diet slip for awhile.

Anyway, I was able to lose 50lbs+ by keeping diet on track. I tend to eat fewer carbs, but I'm not Keto. I just feel better when I don't load up on carbs.

During the work week, I only have coffee in the morning and a salad with some kind of protein for lunch, like chicken or turkey.

Dinner is where things get a little looser. Usually a protein with veggies.

O.K. So should the woman imaged below eat and exercise as an endomorph or an ectomorph? Remember; according to classifying people by "somatotype", people fall into only one of the three categories as they are influenced by genetics and determine how you look and perform throughout life. And those three categories are very different in how they are supposed to eat and exercise.



Spoiler: A psychologist came up with the idea of somatotypes in the 1940s. Psychologists are not medical doctors.
