On April 11, 2008 I had a physical. My blood levels were fine, there was nothing wrong with me expect my weight. 284 at 6'. Christ. Changed my life that day. Today I weighed in at 227.
I lift three days a week and do cardio five days a week. I try to eat 5-6 meals a day consisting of about 300 to 500 calories for a total of 2200 calories a day. I avoid processed foods for the most part and can't tell you the last time I had McDonald's french fries. I give myself one cheat day where I can have whatever I want.
My problem (if it even is one) is that I lost the first 40lbs in 4 months, but it's taken me almost another 4 months to take off the next 17. I'm noticing improvements in my body measurements and I'm putting on muscle as well, but damn. I want to be losing more weight. Looking for ideas to get the lbs coming off again or just some reassurance that I'll get there. Goal weight is 185 and I'd love to be there my next summer. Thanks for reading my vent.
