I've lost 25lb over the summer, just walking every day, lifting weights and trying not to eat as much. It's surprisingly easy to keep the routine going once you get through the first few weeks. Once you start seeing results, you'll start doing more and more just from the positive results and how you feel. At 31, I'm the lightest I've been since I was 17! Interestingly, as I continue to lose weight, friends of mine are finding it! Lol

I started riding a bicycle because my doctor told me I had high blood pressure. My intention was not to lose weight but get my blood pressure under control. I lost 45 lbs in 4 months without trying just by riding a bicycle 150 feet to the end of the street and back. I never changed what I was eating. I now ride a bicycle 28 miles every day and I have 1,300+ consecutive days of riding. I don't do it to lose weight, I do it to not lose the fitness that I have.

I used to be really fat. I was on the verge of developing serious health conditions. I remember not being able to tie my shoelaces and my sleep suffered as well. My life changed when I finally set my mind to the thinking that anything is possible if you decide so. I took a meal plan to start with. I created it online, on dietarize, which was super helpful to me. I didn't have to worry about calories, macros, nutrients and all that stuff, I just focused on walking long distances and exercising after I got on a level where I could do some simple workouts. I hope my story will inspire you to do the same. To change your body you must first change your mind!

I've lost 50 pounds over the last four months, and like the video stated, it was easy at first. The pounds literally just melted away, all I would do is walk or jog for an hour 4-5 days a week and have one meal. I was incredulous at the results and berated myself for not starting to lose weight sooner. It seemed so easy, I was highly motivated and had minimal cravings. At around 30 pounds lost, I felt like I hit a plateau, the weight loss slowed, and the cravings(especially late at night) came back in full force. After relapsing I doubled down and made it to losing 40 pounds, but the cravings came back even more intensely, after struggling with that for a while, I pushed on and reached the 50 pound milestone. I still get intense cravings, and it's really hard, but this video helps me understand why and puts things into perspective. Thanks.

[@mememememeq7283]

you should do a refeed (idk if that is how its spelled) once in a while. I lost around 60 lbs and every three weeks or so I increase my calorie intake for around 3 days. Nothing too crazy but like I add a hamburger for one day. A bag of chips for another, A burrito for another etc. It keeps me going.

[@BabaYagaSin]

So cravings always happen, just have to find a healthy filling alternative. Protien snacks are always filling.

[@dinhnguyen2110]

Try resistance training (weights lifting or bodyweight exercise). The increase in muscle mass will mean you can consume more calories anyways. Restriction diets and constant cardio just makes a person into a body builder who only does cut phases.

[@grolfe3210]

Not mentioned is that if you lose 50 pounds and then walk the same distance as you did when you were 50 pounds heavier, you will burn up far fewer calories! Same as a small car uses less gas to go the same distance as a big one. So you do need to keep pushing at it. But then if you walked an hour the new 50lb lighter you can jog for an hour? Ramp it up. You mention cravings. Is this for a particular food or is it basically that you are hungry? You need to accept that where you were before the weight loss was not right and that you need to make permeant changes beyond denying yourself food and jogging. One meal a day is mad! You should easily be able to have 3 decent meals per day and still lose weight. If you are just eating one meal of junk food instead of 3 meals of junk food then you have not fixed things properly. Good whole food. Cut out Alcohol, all sugar, and really reduce fat. Dairy is a bad habit too. Good whole carbs are fine, mostly it is the sugar or fat added to them that is the problem. Eat raw food rather than cooked, whole rather than liquified and make everything rather than buying anything ready made. Learn what is in food. Eat you meals at a table while doing nothing else, enjoy your food. Enjoy burning it off however you do it.

Its good that you are trying. But pro tip: get a routine. A boring routine. Body becomes fat after the hormones go awry. And the hormones go awry when our cycadian rythm is disrupted. Turns out our endocrine system regulates our mood and cravings, which is only regulated by a proper sleep cycle. Work with ur cycadian rythm. Wake up an hour before sunrise. Go to sleep within an hour of sunset. In the meanwhile, make sure you take out 40 mins for some sort of physical activity: some cardio, some zumba, some planks. Preferable if it is done early morning after having an apple. Everything will fall back into right place if you make sure to wake up early morning. Just switch your binge-watching personal time from late night to early morning. That will get you on the right track.

[@ChristianTuyub]

See a nutritionist. I was clueless/lazy to search on the internet ways to lose weight (besides of course doing exercise). When paired with their help, I could lose 21kg to this day (since december of the last year) and I'm going for more.

[@drew3401]

I was 300lbs just a little over a year ago currently at 207lbs. Getting started is the hardest part but after you get into a routine it’s the simplest thing ever. Best advice to give would be to cut out sugar there are many great zero sugar alternatives out there if you’re craving something sweet. Also working out even if it’s just 3 days a week for an hour you will feel so much better and the results will show in due time.

[@rw6836]

For me the tricks to losing and keeping off weight: -Do small changes gradually: this is a marathon, not a sprint. Do slight adjustments every day means they could be maintained over time. -Eat a little less than I burn: only eat till I'm not hungry, not till I'm full. -Befriend slight hunger: be a bit hungry for awhile before I eat. Like intermittent fasting, but not as extreme. -Reduce sugar intake: I pretty much cut out soft drink, though still eat chocolate once in awhile. -Use belly fat as a gauge: if I squeeze my belly, and there's still some fat, I could eat a little less. -Exercise everyday: does not need to be overboard, even a few minutes every day is good.

Also count your calories, only eat what you need for the day, this varies if you workout or doing hard physical labor. The benefits will be worth it. It helped me mentally and kept me disciplined.

I started my weight loss journey at about 16 years old. I am barely 19. I have been on and off because of life just happening, and I’ve lost 63 pounds so far. I started at 230, weight is 167 now. Current goal is 150. I am 5’2, so my height and weight combined made me feel like trash. I’ve dealt with depression and just a very long list of mental illness diagnosis as well as intensive therapy since I was 10. In the last 2 years I’ve been on a very steady journey. One thing I learned is that overeating makes me feel terribly nauseous and sick, to identify when it is time to stop. Doing it all the time made me feel miserable but I would keep going because I love LOVE food and have a binge eating disorder, so my lifestyle changes and some other mental BS I had to process gave me some handle on it and it’s pretty much under control right now! When I would go up the stairs I needed at minimum two minutes to catch a breather before I could talk properly. Now I can go up and down like it’s nothing. Not even after going up and down 10 times. My joint pain has lessened. I’ve realized how great working out consistently makes me feel. I have burn out sometimes like any normal person and shit is still tough, but I’d be lying if I said I want to stop completely. I look forward to doing it now. This journey has taught me soooo much about myself and my want to treat my body right; even to love myself when I hate it most and to recognize how hard it works for me. I crave vegetables now. It is some major rewiring. It doesn’t make everything perfect but it sure helps. It’s just insane.

When I crave calories I go for healthy sources like fruit and nuts, instead of sugar and oil. And I try to eat as many vegetables as I can.

I’m 260 Lbs, and I’m struggling to stay motivated. (Cliche I know.) but I’m aiming to lose 80Lbs within a year. I’m just wondering if there’s any psychological tricks to stay motivated, and what was it that kept you motivated.

[@mattkay7334]

I found that you can only stay motivated if it comes from yourself. You are the only person that will always be able to keep yourself accountable. It is different for everyone, but what finally gave me the motivation to lose weight was when I realized how much weight I had gained in 2016. When I was big, I didn't care what my weight was, but seeing in retrospect how quickly I was gaining weight, it scared me and still scares me. You have to figure out at what point enough is enough. At what point do you decide that whatever habit you have, be it too many calories or not enough physical activity or both, has gone to far and has to stop. It really isn't easy, but if you find a way of eating and exercising that works for you, it can be done. That's what I had to do, is make my own plan/diet, because all the diet out there aren't custom enough for most people, and don't take into account your specific needs and challenges, but you can. If I can do it, anyone can, I'm just some regular guy that stopped eating so much junk food and started exercising and eating right.

Matt Kay For a regular guy you have some good advice. Oh, and I can definitely relate to the fear of gaining more weight. I’ve thought about that for awhile.

I look and feel great, and have control over my health for the first time in my 75 years! I can live with this diet until I check out.

[@CHAOS88100]

I lost 36lbs (16.3kg) this year, hopefully 40lbs by the end of this month. Only about 5 months of actually being on a diet. If you hit a plateau, I think the trick is to take a break from your diet but don't eat beyond your calculated metabolic rate. I took a break in my diet from June - Sept and did not gain any weight, and when I continued the diet in Oct, I started to lose weight quickly again. You'll get hard cravings and feel almost sick the first week of starting your diet, like a brain fog. After that it will subside. Make 1 day a week cheat day to keep your metabolism in check. Cut out sugar and refined carbs from your diet. Eat about 1500 calories a day. You'll lose weight even sitting at a desk. Make water your new favourite drink (or tea or coffee - with stevia, not sugar). Caffeine is good because stimulants reduce your appetite.

Five things I’ve learnt since losing 190lbs. 1. There is never and end. I’ll always have to watch what I eat. I’ll always have to exercise to maintain the weight loss. 2. The moment I hit my goal weight there was no fanfare. No parade. No joyous celebration. No one actually gives a shit that you lost the weight. They only tell you if you start to regain or if you eat something they think is not “diet” approved. 3. Don’t expect the weight loss to fix you. It’s just fat. Losing it won’t make a difference to your happiness even if your unhappiness revolved around your weight. 4. Being at a healthy weight won’t mean you are healthy. It will just mean that doctors now don’t have a reason to blame your ailments on your weight. 5. Being obese doesn’t make you unlovable to others it just makes you unloveable to yourself. Love you now to want to be a better human not have a better body.

Losing weight can have a significant impact on both the body and brain. Here are some of the changes that occur: Reduced inflammation: Excess weight can cause chronic inflammation in the body, which can lead to various health problems. Losing weight can help reduce inflammation and lower the risk of conditions such as heart disease and diabetes. Improved insulin sensitivity: Losing weight can improve the body's ability to use insulin, which helps regulate blood sugar levels. This can reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Lowered blood pressure: Excess weight can increase blood pressure, which can strain the heart and increase the risk of heart disease. Losing weight can help lower blood pressure and reduce this risk. Reduced joint pain: Carrying excess weight can put a lot of strain on the joints, leading to pain and discomfort. Losing weight can help reduce this strain and alleviate joint pain. Improved sleep: Losing weight can also improve the quality of sleep. Sleep apnea, a common condition in overweight individuals, can improve with weight loss, leading to better sleep and overall health. Improved mood: Losing weight can have a positive impact on mental health and mood. Studies have shown that weight loss can improve symptoms of depression and anxiety. Improved brain function: Losing weight can also improve brain function. Studies have shown that weight loss can improve cognitive function, memory, and attention. It's important to note that weight loss should always be approached in a healthy and sustainable way, with a focus on balanced nutrition and regular exercise. Rapid weight loss or fad diets can have negative impacts on both the body and brain.

I did not have any apparent illnesses, but I was morbidly obese. Now I am fit pretty much by any standard with a BMI of slightly less than 25 and a waistline measuring less than half my height.

The reasons you feel worthless and empty have nothing to do with your weight, they have to do with your thoughts, beliefs, and patterns in your self talk. I know this sounds preachy. A comment like yours makes me want to give you words of encouragement to keep going, analyze your values and behaviors, make adjustments, have hope that things can and will get better if you make small changes to your programming, and make it happen for yourself. You get to choose!

[@fuckdefucker]

There is no miracle way to get better than taking care of yourself and alot of time. You are trying by losing weight which is great! But why did you want to lose weight before? What is bringing you down on the daily?

Okay. All of this is so accurate cause this is exactly what I've been doing and feeling when I've reached my weight loss goal. Its actually insane

[@chrisdistant9040]

I lost 20kg within a few months and the biggest change I noticed is getting up and climbing stairs has become so much easier I tend to move much more now and much less hesitant to get up and get something, too!

[@DrTranofEvil]

Dropped over 15 pounds when I stopped drinking... My diet isn’t amazing, but I eat a LOT better than a lot of my peers. I do practice portion control. Now I gotta ramp up the whole ‘exercise’ thing and I’ll be gold.... 😓

Cravings always have a peak. It seems like the peak is when your body is desperate not to accept change, but it will ultimately accept change if you insist. Use mindfulness to ride the craving over the peak and then you’re home free!

[@o0Avalon0o]

Whole grain, hearty foods help with the cravings because it delays digestion & lessens the natural spike in blood sugar when you eat. Another way to do this is to eat slower, like eat one apple slice to full mush before you cut the next. Also, eat meals as soon as you start feeling hungry, don't wait.

[@neggsta10]

I’m averaging 1.5-2 pounds lost a week which is good and steady progress. It’s hard but rewarding. My recommendation is cut out extra snacks, all desserts and junk food, and eating out. Add more liquids to your diet, like soups and shakes. Have fruit smoothies with a responsible amount of sugar or a chocolate protein shake instead if you’re craving something sweet or dessert like. Keep a big ass water bottle, like half a gallon to a gallon, and keep refilling and drinking constantly. Center your diet around PFVF-protein, fiber, veggies and healthy fats. Go low in everything else, low carb, calorie, salt, sugar, and unhealthy fats & oils. Finally, exercise 3-5 times a week.

been going gym for about 3 months (had covid for 1 month but still lost weight the unhealthy way) lost almost 15 kg so far, getting stronger, family noticing improvements, im not eating fruit or veg as ive never ate that growing up but im slowly introducing it to my meals along with rice, im just eating less junk snacks and having a belvita or a banna/apple and eating less with my meals and not having take out as much, only had it a handful of times in the few months

[@EmilBlueMan]

Lost over 65 pounds. Took a while but thanks to my wife and her moms healthy cooking. Also a lot of walking, running, and weight lifting helps. With positive thinking.

[@maltheopia]

I've went from 260 to 210 lbs. in nine weeks as a 6'0" male. I've been able to avoid metabolism crashes by supplementing with sterculia oil, stearic acid (the waxy part of saturated fats) and Yohimbe. Also by only eating one meal a day tops, doing several 96-120h fasts, and doing a combination of 4 days of aerobic exercise of walking 6-8mi a night (my job makes me do this) and 4 days of HIIT + weightlifting. No fructose or ethanol other than the small amounts that get added to vitamin gummies, no seed oils, no fast food, and very limited PUFAs.

[@Landstalker1999]

You did 4 days straight fasting? So only water for 4 days straight? Dont you lose a lot if muscle mass when you do that?

[@maltheopia]

@@Landstalker1999 No. Your human-growth hormone spikes by 700% of its baseline around 36 hours after a fast. You will eventually lose muscle as your body starts requiring animo acids it can't produce on its own, but it will take weeks. Not 4 days.

[@Landstalker1999]

@@maltheopia My normal eating habit is intermittent fasting style regardless im on diet or not. So what you're talking about is not intermittent fasting but straight up no calories fasting for several days straight? How many days do you go straight with no calories fasting? I'm thinking of doing 3~4 fasting (only water) per week from now on.

[@StephonFitness]

Good video. I personally lost 66 lbs (30 kg) in 8 months without losing any muscle mass and strength. I followed a high fat, low carb diet and ate 5-6 meals a day. It worked very well for me. No intermittent fasting, no starving myself etc…Losing weight and keeping it of is incredibly easy if you know what you’re doing 🙂

[@person8203]

After losing nearly 4 stone I definitely feel the difference. More energy, better mindset. Started by cutting out the worst foods, high sugar high fat stuff like cake, crisps, chocolate, biscuits, etc. Then gradually over weeks cut out more shit like pastry, fatty meats, processed foods, etc. It's so true what the vid said, once I'd detoxed from the crap food I no longer had cravings for them. Now I go to restaurants and realize how terrible most menus are.

[@solaceskies1]

I weighed 135 at 4'11" and lost almost 20 pounds this past summer by walking and doing arm and ab workouts. I now picked up running and it is the best thing that has ever happened.

[@wubzlol6476]

I lose weight and end up gaining some of it again cuz I keep losing motivation :/

[@fitforfreelance]

happens =/ I always say you need confidence, realistic focus, and accountability to lose weight and keep it off!

[@chfgn]

You and pretty much everybody, friend. Take a look at the statistics: losing weight and keeping it off is virtually impossible. Realistically, it simply can’t be done; almost everybody eventually fails and gains it all back. The only people who beat the odds are those who remain single-mindedly obsessed with their weight for every moment of every day for the rest of their lives. The good news is this: being overweight isn’t as unhealthy as most people think it is. It’s perfectly possible to be fat and healthy. Don’t worry about losing weight, focus on a healthy lifestyle. Eat reasonable stuff (you know what is and isn’t reasonable already, don’t let anyone sell you on an overly specific fad diet), get some small amount of activity in your average day (a 20 minute walk on your lunch break is probably plenty), and throw your scale in the garbage because it can’t tell you one damn thing about how healthy you are.

[@fitforfreelance]

@@chfgn I disagree with you pretty hard on that first part. If you lose weight sustainably by following the process you're describing, you can lose weight and keep it off. Weight loss is realistic if you have realistic focus. You don't have to obsess about your image, scale weight, or all or nothing diets. Speak hope =)

After losing 36 pounds due to my stomach condition (Ulcerative Colitis and IBS), I have found that the cold affects me more than it used to. That extra fat must have insulted my body. Thankfully I was overweight and so losing all that weight didn't make me underweight. Now I stay at a healthy BMI and stopped losing and gaining weight with my current medication and diet. I no longer have extra pressure on my joints when exercising and my knees don't pop like they used to during powerwalks. I find it much easier to breathe and get air in since there is no fat rolls on my stomach anymore when I sit.

[@BikerBalak]

*R u single miss?* 👀

[@bsgfan1]

I lost 181 pounds through diet and exercise. Here’s a few things I learned that they don’t tell you: 1 - You get cold really easily. 2 - You can’t swim the same way. You almost have to re-learn how. 3 - Your shoe size changes. The length stays the same, but your width and instep shrink. You may have to get new shoes. 4 - Your hat size changes 5 - You’ll be spending _a lot_ on new clothes. If you plan on losing more weight, keep some of your older clothes on hand until they’re too big to be wearable. That way, you won’t be constantly playing catch-up with your size and spending more than you have to. 6 - You’ll get drunk a lot quicker. I shit you not, be careful with this one. If you try drinking the same way you did when you were fat, you’re going to have a bad time. Or a really good time if that’s your thing. 7 - Losing weight is not hard; it’s just tedious. It takes time, discipline, and commitment. Yes, it sucks but it pays off in the long run. 8 - Water adds weight, but not the way you think. Weight from food is stored fat. Weight from water is merely the physical presence of the water itself that hasn’t been absorbed yet. For example, if you weigh yourself, chug a bottle of water, then weight yourself again, you’ll be a pound or two heavier. It’s not that you’ve gained fat in those few seconds, there’s just a pound or two of water that wasn’t there before.

[@aprilianindy3200]

I lost 19.4 kg/42.8 lbs in a year when I came back to my parents' house. No exercise whatsoever. Just doing some chores like washing dishes or doing laundry. I would put the plates back in the dish rack one by one and fold laundry one by one. I did it almost every day. I mostly ate mom's cooking and occasionally ate instant noodles. However I couldn't stop eating and drinking chocolate so I compensated by eating less rice (I'm Southeast Asian so rice is very important 😋). Now 1,5 years in I had only gained 3 kg max and would quickly lose it. My motivation was if I lost some weight I could eat whatever I wanted, but I accidentally ended up losing that much weight 😆 TL;DR You can definitely lose weight by doing chores every day and making small adjustment to your eating habit.

[@Mr-Ad-196]

Or you can do what like I did.......I didn't eat for 2-3 day and just play videogames game and go-to work.........sure kinda hungry but I kinda just meh as long as I can keep my mind on playing videogames...

The thing about getting smarter and good memory is true, I lost about 8kgs in 75 days of gymming and cardio, after that I was able to remember things a lot clearly than I used to before because I consumed a lot of alcohol which used to make me forget a lot. Though I lost motivation and again stared drinking. Need to limit it again.

Tip: If you're obese, don't go running. It's horrible on your joints too. It's difficult to recommend regular running to even the most fit. Like any other exercise, variety and rest are key. Try swimming or a bicycle instead to reduce impact on your joints.

[@gordondavis6168]

I once ate 600 calories a day and ran 2 miles every other day for 3 months to lose weight. I held a stressful job, and my higher brain functions went away after the first month. I was able to my job, but my thoughts went very flat during that time. I took the variety and fun out of eating by making a 600 calorie diet and having it every day. I ran so that my metabolism would not shut down. I lost 25 pounds in those 3 weeks.
