| Topic | To those of you that have lost any notable amount of weight at some point... |
| Esrac 08/29/18 8:26:10 PM #44: | I wanted to enlist in the Navy, but I was way too fat. I was 230lbs. Over the course of a year, I lost over 50lbs. I was at around 177 at my lowest. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to exercise much the past 3 - 4 weeks due to a strained/pulled hamstring. It's annoying because I already see some of the weight creeping back. Instead of the scale reading 177-179, its reading 180-183 lately. Part of it is probably frustration and depression over having my progress stalled and having to request to delay my shipment to boot camp due to the injury. I was suppose to ship out 9/11, but I can't run on a strained hamstring and they take weeks, if not a couple months, to really heal. That comfort food is a sneaky villain. I can't think of a lot of calorie burning exercises that don't involve use of your legs in some fashion. Oh, and to lose weight at such a gradual pace didn't require a significant degree of effort. Some moderate cardio exercise at the fitness center and a change in diet. Cut back on the pasta, bread, processed sugars, pork, and beef. Eating mostly chicken breast, tuna, fruit, vegetables, water, and unsweetened tea. I do have an occasional cheat day. --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
