Not finished yet, about 30 more I'd like to lose, but happy with the progress so far! I'm 5'10". I'm finally in a BMI that's considered healthy and back into my college rowing form.

    Hi, row 5x per week on average, anywhere from 10-90 mins depending on if it's a warmup or long steady state row.

    I also do tabata/HIIT workouts about 3-4 x per week and weight lifting 3x wk.

    Usually twice per week I row for 90 mins, otherwise my workouts are never longer than 45 mins including warmup and cool down.

    I started with weight watchers but didn't like that it focuses so much on reduced fat foods and things with lots of chemicals. I like real foods, so I've started macro counting and this is what works best for me! Plus I work out 45-90 mins 5xwk

    It's definitely a journey but looking back at progress photos is definitely motivation to not give up!

    You can do it!!!

    That's awesome! I'm currently down 26lb in 6.5 weeks, April 11th will be the 2 months mark. So I could potentially be at 30lbs down in 2 months. I'm hoping to do 50lbs in 5 months like you though! I do a ICF 5x5 3 days a week, and 1hour cardio 2 a week. And I also make sure I get 10k steps on my Fitbit. I eat about 1800-2000 calories, sometimes maybe 1700.
