  • 367, down 89 pounds!
  • Good to know. I'll see if they have any actual programs as well.
  • Oh ok, makes sense. I guess I was thinking maybe the length mattered for taller people or something like that. I plan on just getting a pack of them.
  • Thanks for the response! Yeah I've totally overhauled my eating habits. I've lost over 50 pounds so far, another 2 this week. Right now it's pretty easy since my limit is so high but Its gonna get harder the lower it gets! Do you mean specific nutrition needs for me or in general? I hadn't thought about going to dietician.…
  • Thanks! Yeah I've been doing 1800-2200 just depending on the meals. I did 1800 today and ate plenty and wasn't hungry much. Sometimes I hit my goal but only when I eat something "bad" or go out to eat somewhere. My fitness pal will usually warn you if you go too low as well. I'm at 399 and I'm 6'4. Male. I walk 30 mins to…
  • Yes, very overweight so I'm trying to lose quite a bit.
  • I may have to end up going to a gym because my gym at work is good for cardio. They have some free weights and the only working machines are bench (multi-press), leg press and a couple of other specialized ones for glutes and triceps/curls but these don't work. No deadlifting or the big compound lifts resources.
  • Are there any specifics about what weights to start out with? Friends have said to go with extremely light and just slowly add 5-10 pounds each week or so until it gets heavy. 24 year old man. The main thing I'm worried about is form. I found a thread that provides some links to help with that though.
  • Ahhh ok, that's good to know, thanks. I suppose that's why guys who want to get bigger drink a lot of protein powder when going to the gym. I'd definitely be doing it in a deficit. Thanks! I have plenty of body weight so that should be work great for me. Those are some things I can do outside of the gym when I'm short on…
  • Thanks for all of the responses. I'm definitely eating at a deficit. MFP set my limit at around 2700 calories a day on the 2 pound per week loss goal. I am hovering at around 2400 a day. I'm still trying to cut the sodium since I'm consistently over in that category. Just finding foods that fit. That's a good point. I have…
  • Thanks for the responses! I didn't realize it was majorly a calorie deficit system. What does the 55/15/30 figure mean? Is it percentages of daily calories or something?
  • Thanks, I will check it out. I'd say go Cowboys but we are not currently on good terms.
  • Yes I'm over 400 pounds actually. I'm 22 and 6'4. I currently walk 5 days a week, full time student right now so not very active other than walking for about 5-7 hours a week. I've been keeping my carbs under 50-60 per day based off of some things I've read which is why 370 really threw me off. I don't necessarily watch…
  • Is this where I should be asking this kind of question or would this need to go somewhere else?
