OMFGWTF 195 lbs?

[Wanescotting]

I now weigh 195 lbs! I have not been under 200 lbs in 5 years. I feel wonderful.
I was previously 245 lbs. 2 months later I am @ 195!
All hard work and eating properly, I would like to add.

So, how has your diet or whatever you want to call it been going?

EDIT: I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR OF ANY ATKINS FOOLISHNESS. (yes I realize that a select few have been told to do the atkins diet by their doctor, but most people have not been told by a doctor)


UPDATE:Woot, I am now @ 180!

 

[quakefiend420]

i only weigh 155...so any diet for me would be to fatten my skinny ass up! my gf has been making me excercise with her a lot lately though...its aight...usually shes horny by the time we're done so it works out ok

Atkins here! I'm around 200-220. I hope to be 180.

Day 2.

When I did Atkins before I lost 40 pounds. I stopped and 1 year later I gained it all back.

 

[TechnoKid]

I eat whatever I want and can control my weight quite easily. I suppose this is due to my quite high metabolism. This is not to say that I could eat forever and never gain weight, I do proper excercise and such.

5'-10" and currently 148lbs, 19yrs old.

Sad to hear that, this is why I hate the atkins diet. IT DOES NOT INCREASE METABOLISM.

diet alone cannot increase metabolism any significant amount, can it?

isnt that why it is called diet and excercise?

edit: i do know that easting less decreases your metab, and eating more increases it....supposedly

Indeed, but you have to eat a balanced diet. The word diet to me at least means a change in what you eat, not how much you eat.


Also, I started doing little things like parking a ways from the store, and I found ways to burn extra calories at work.

 

[Aimster]

I'm going to the gym this time around. Trying to build more muslce instead of lose weight fast.

 

[quakefiend420]

heh...you have taken a liking to the word tomfoolery haven't you wayne?

 

[0roo0roo]

5"11 170. moderate workouts every 2-3 days or so.. i just don't eat to excess...whatever it is. try not to skip exersize, works pretty ok.

Didn't you know?

 

[Amused]

Two years and three months ago I looked in the mirror and saw a chubby lump of goo. I had quit smoking a couple years earlier and the pounds just came on like a comfortable coat.

I decided it was time to do something about it. I weighed myself, and found I was 210 lbs.

Two years later, I'm 205 lbs.

BUT

My waist was a 35, and is now a 32. My body fat is now between 10 and 15%.

Why diet and lose weight when you can just build muscle?

Seriously, though, I did a lot of running and cardio to burn the fat. But along the way I found I liked lifting weights AND I really liked the results.

So my story is about how you can not lose any weight, but still make yourself look and feel great.

You wouldn't care to detail out exactly what you've been eating / drinking per day, as well as your workout schedule + activities, would you?

the best way to loose weight is to cut simple carbs and sugar from your diet. loosing weight is way easy.

 

[Megatomic]

Congrats Wanescotting! I am on the same track as you, only my original weight was 270lbs. I am now 235lbs. It took me 10 months to lose 35lbs. though. I'd have lost more but I took the month of Dec. and the first week of Jan. off and enjoyed life and put 10lbs. back on.

My goal is to be at 220lbs. on June 1 so I'll be ready for the beach and Ocean Breeze waterpark.

 

[0roo0roo]

avoid drinking calories. food is more filling..satisfying. try to drink more water...it helps.. googleit
avoid hard rules though..u need some flex or u will give up

 

[Megatomic]

I agree with ^^^. I do try to fill up with water when I start to feel hungry though. Actually, all told, I drink about a gallon of water per day.

*runs to go pee*

 

[sniperruff]

south beach seems to work but i wouldn't want to sacrifice so much... basically no carb and no sugar for a week then gradual slightly more carb and sugar... but the diet is stright

my co-worker lost 20 lbs in a month. he's keeping it so far.

 

[AmigaMan]

so how did you do it Wanescotting? I'm 235lbs now and 6'1". I would like to get below 200 but I'm a lazyass. Any cure for that?

 

[hans007]

i was about 160 a year and a half ago.

im now 185 pounds.

a year ago i became a software engineer.

but , unlike what you'd expect i decided when i started at the software company that i would stay in shape and not turn fat. so i actually went to the gym for a year and gained 25 pounds of muscle and lost weight. for this year i am just not drinking processed sugars, and its been helping me get even leaner.
