hello all,
I have been going hard on this new life style. I try to cut all carbs out. but not possible so some pass by.... and push for proteins....

work out minimum one hour 6 days a week.

River of Water, I drink nearly 6 liters per day.

I feel great, I feel energetic and I feel like a new person.

Start weight was 307lb, 32nd day I am 280 today. Want to be 250 by March 31st, I will be sure to re-post here then with my story.

I have full support of my Lovely wife, and my most beautiful sister in law (both of whom are members of this website and influenced me in joining in as well)

    That's a great start, it's really motivating when you see positive outcomes for making those lifestyle changes.
    Keep up the good work, but remember that this is going to be for the long term - make sure the changes are sustainable and don't be discouraged if the next month's loss isn't so big.
    It's great to hear that you have good support around you, you can do it!!!

    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE POST WHAT YOUR DOING!!!
  • yes please post! I'm sticking with 1200 calories and working out atleast 5 times a week and maintaining about 2 pounds lost a week. I'm afraid to loose more a week in fear I will loose it back and want to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Would love to see what you are doing though!!

    Making a drastic change at a high weight will contribute to insane weight loss. The more weight you have to lose, the faster it will come off.

    To OP: congrats on your weight loss, keep up the good work!!
  • that is AMAZING ! can you PLEASE tell me how you are doing this !?

    Congrats to you! I have had similar success, with 32 lbs in 34 days. Hope to be at a goal of 250 when I am done as well. This site has been a huge help to me. Good luck with your continued success!

    Wow! Did you see my blue eyes just turn green??? If I had lost 27 lbs. in 32 days, I would have started maintenance two months ago. My problem is that I didn't have that much to lose and it's taking forever to dump it.

    Keep up with the program...forever (it will keep you on track after you reach your goal & prevent you from piling it back on). :) Claire

    Just eating normal, but 0 carbs, (well I try to make it 0 but it is not possible), increase my protein in dietary selections. Lots of Tuna can, and 6 Liters of water every day.

    then of course I do 1 hour and 20 minutes or so of work our at 5 am 5 days a week. on the weekend last weekend I was in the gym for 4 hours straight, 2.5 hours of that I was on cardio machine watching iRobot... lol

    works great, you have to make the decision and face it...

    I am sure you can do it too.

    88lb in my book is equal to 2.5 months of hardship. you have to go to gym 1.5 hours every morning, and cut all carbs, push for proteins and flood you with water... stay close to restroom cause it will for sure make you run.... LOL

    thank you.

    well, I eat veggies, so I am getting my carbs regardless, that is why I am saying 0 is not possible, i am sure I am getting carbs, but if I know it is there, I will not eat it...

    I have got the Muscle Milk powder as well, it is 0 carbs, for breakfast it is the kick.

    Thank you millions for the wonderful tip, that is the key, life style change and not diet.

    best of luck to you too.

    OK,

    I wake up at 3:30AM (no that is not a typo, it is the time my alarm goes off) :(

    I get prepared and leave the house and drive for one hour and 10 minutes to city where my job is.

    now it is about 5:10AM

    I get my personal items and suit all in my locker and get on elliptical machine for 33 minutes. that is 28 + 5 cool down. once finished, I do the same machine for 15 more minutes

    Then I do 150 crunches (ab work)

    Then I do triceps and under arms 3 sets of 10/ 15 rep each alternatively

    Then I use another ab machine for 50 crunches

    Then I do bench press with 90LB 10 times 3 sets

    Then I do few other machines by now it is 6:10 or 6:15AM

    I shower and change into my work suit and drive to my office about 5-7 minutes from gym

    I get to my office before 7AM, I start drinking water after water after water.... and run to the rest room every 40 minutes (at least once)... I do this till 10AM

    Then I have a Activia yogurt, and backon my water and have a fiber pill and back on my water....

    For lunch I bring my home made veggies with two table spoons of egg beater (I make that every night when I get home (8:00PM).

    Total of 6 Liters of water per day and that is all I eat until dinner.

    for dinner my wife prepares the Salmon Burger for me I eat one patty of that with fork and a cup of hot green tea occasionally with lemon.


    PS: I also have a hug bottle of lemon juice at work that I mix with water some times... (that reminds me, I am out of that and need to go shopping..)


    hope this helps... Yes, I go to sleep at 9:00PM after kids go to bed, so get 6.5 Hours of sleep at most.


    let me know if you can do this.

    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE POST WHAT YOUR DOING!!!

    My advise to you is do not be afraid, loose as much as you can as quickly as you can so you can enjoy your life soon, you can fight the battle with food when you are in shape... it will be easier then any ways.... don't you agree???

    at least that is my philosophy...
