’m 27M, 5’11” starting weight: 220lbs > current weight 177lbs
I have been back in my diet and exercise routine since 1/1/20 and have really been feeling in control. Somehow working from home during quarantine has made healthy choices a tad easier to make since I’m not tempted to go to lunch with coworkers and eat a whole basket of chips and salsa and THEN my whole meal - just as an example.
I also can’t stand being cooped up for that long in my house, so I have started going on 6 mile walks 3-5 times a day to stretch my legs and actually experience the outdoors - with a face mask and while practicing social distancing, of course!
When I weighed myself this evening I was most excited to see that I was in the 170’s again. The last time I remember weighing close to that was in seventh grade! At my heaviest my weight got to 240, and it was all fat.
Moving forward I am trying to incorporate more weight training into me routine. I can see that I’m also losing muscle mass and my arms are starting to look scrawny - a problem I never in my wildest dreams thought I would have to worry about.
I’m sorry if this post reads as annoying, but for the first time maybe in my whole life I am starting to feel less ashamed of my body.
Best of luck to everyone in their health and weight loss endeavors! ❤️❤️
