REACHED GOAL and now for maintenance…actually went 10-15 lbs below goal so we’ll see. Hit highest weight (405) in Nov 2013. Lost about 190 lbs by Feb 2015. Did great for a long time and then a yo-yo struggle w/ that last 50- 90 pound loss.
On May 13, 2019, I adopted a 16/8 Intermittent Fasting regimen. It was a “lifestyle” (not diet) change made for me. As of yesterday, I am down to 175 lbs… A weight not seen since high school. Waist went from 60” to loose-fitting 36”. Shirt sizes from 4X to simply “Large.”
I no longer require a statin drug. My overall cholesterol, LDL and Triglycerides are at their lowest levels in over a half decade. Weight loss won’t resolve all comorbidities but it has helped in multiple areas.
Plan: 1) Continue IF (which I really like); 2) continue exercise & overall behavioral changes.
