Before and After Pics

Well done, what was your plan!

I started by just using MFP set to a 1lb/week loss. I didn't change one single thing about my eating habits. I just ate less food. Then I started running again.
For example I rarely ate a bacon-ultimate-cheeseburger. I'd eat 2 peanut butter and banana sandwiches thinking they were healthy. And they are... but they're also 400 cals each. And I'd wash it down with a big glass of milk...another 200 calories. Boom. a cool thousand calorie lunch.

I also started running, first week I ran like 8 miles total. then I increased it by about 8-10% each week, and every 4-5 weeks I'd drop it back and run about 60% of the previous week. Worked on increasing my pace. Did a little fartlek running. Mostly added mileage.
I started doing a few sets of push-ups, pull-ups, dips, and a little time in plank after my runs. I do yoga about 1 day a week for flexibility and 'cause I like it.

That's about it. Eat less food, run lots, do a few body-weight exercises.
