Well if you want to know how I have done it, I sleep alot because I have school once a week, and I'm not a breakfast person (not usually hungry for it). So my calorie intake is smaller. Basically if you google weight loss you'll get that it's bad to eat less meals that are bigger well personally I think that's bs and I'm living proof that I can loose nearly 50 pounds in 4 months without eating more or starving myself. Before when I was fat I would sit and have little to no excercise, but I have lowered my calories to no more then 1300 a day and I try to get out of the house at least once a day. I do/ did cardio at the gym for about 20 minutes everyday except the weekends for about 20-22 minutes. So keywords to you is fewer calories, more excercise, and less meals (I don't suggest 1 meal at least 2 and try and make at least one of those meals a good meal like for example Subway). That's about it, my weight has constantly been dropping by doing those things.

When I was in the 190's it was warm enough to run at around 6 and still light out so I used to run 4 miles and eat things with the least fat, like cerial hmm, crispix, rice crispies, things with 0% fat. But as soon as I dropped to the 180's I stopped cuz it got too cold and too dark. As soon as I drop to 150 I am gonna eat probably around 3 meals a day and excercise alot more! So my metabolism/ physical activity will make sure it doesn't move back up.

If you're concerned about what foods to eat, "no fat" foods are usually not the way to go actually. Believe it or not, your body really needs fat to run smoothly on a day-to-day basis. What you SHOULD be concerned about is calories, carbohydrates, sugar and sodium! Those are the four killers for anyone's day. Calories because roughly 3500 calories is one pound, carbs because they're a long term energy supply that is hard to work off, sugar because it's a short term energy supply that often times sits and does not move, and sodium because it retains your natural body liquids.

That's not to say go out and eat the highest fat stuff in the world, it just means that some fat (especially polly-unsaturated or omega-3 and omega-6) are actually beneficial to weight loss.

Also, you should be concerned that you're getting enough protein in your diet. Eat things like eggs, tuna, and chicken to gain a healthy advantage in your protein department, because protein is more readily turned into muscle than something like sugar.

You don't ALWAYS have to eat healthy, you just have to get your body into a constant high metobolic rate, so that when you do slip up and eat that Mr. Big it doesn't sit and store, your body gets rid of it. Exercise and foods are the main thing in loosing weight, and food has a lot more to do with it than people think!

I don't think I can do what you did... I am very active and I have really long days, I need to eat to stay awake and functional the entire day... If I don't get 2 good meals in a day, I feel dizzy, and there's no way I can then run what I do without that much energy. I can't see how you can run 4 miles without eating very much.

just thought i'd say I weigh about 156 now.

earlier


about a week or two ago


now


don't mind that image I'm just putting it up here so I can compare over time. I think my love handles are shrinking now which I'm glad about. i'll add another in a month or two.

damn dude...nice job. keep it up!

you really do notice it, I think you're lucky that your method works for you... I do know people who are over weight, and eat once a day, or even every other day for a few years now, and they are still over weight

I just hope for your sake it doesn't come back up as fast as you lost it when you have to increase your meals

lol I don't eat once a day I eat 2 times a day, when I go back to 3 meals a day, I will be very very active so my body will keep it's metabolism. I wish when you lost weight your body would reform instantly cuz theres some parts of me that is like flab and it looks weird.

WOW Look at you go! Great job hottie

just figure i'd put the nail in the coffin with the whole my weight loss thing. If anything next it's just to some little muscle mass.
