RE: 10 Years in the Making!

in #fitness7 years ago

get down there pal. I was at 240 a year ago and now i am whatever 83 kg is (just looked) 183 pounds or so. If you want to carry on south of the 2 oh oh, you can. Come join me!

Wow!!! That’s impressive. What did you do? That’s quite a transformation in a short timeframe! My goal currently is 195. Then I’ll look at things and reevaluate.

at first i drastically changed my diet to eliminate nearly all carbohydrates: I basically just found ways to eat only meat or eggs / cheese / whatever but never any bread, rice, potatoes, etc. I did this for 2 months and gradually introduced more and more exercise in my life. The biggest change I made was likely the fact that I switched to drinking a low carb beer almost exclusively because beer is definitely my biggest excess.

The exercise is now just part of my day to day life as I ride a bicycle to almost anything I go to. I own othe vehicles, but they sit unused so much that when i go to start them, it takes a while. I think my motorcycle is out of fuel, I don't know. I haven't even used it in 3 weeks.

Now that I am down to what i weighed in college when i was very active (and consequently developed my penchant for beer) I eat kinda whatever i want but still avoid carbs and especially sugar as much as possible. I have stabilized at 83kg (around 185 pound) with this new "balanced" lifestyle. I would like to lose another 10 pounds, but since I lift weights it is probably impractical for me to try to do that.

Short answer: It's diet, not so much the exercise. I dropped most of the weight when i wasn't exercising at all.
