Hey all. 27 year old dude here. Highest weight I ever hit was 225. I'm only 5'8 and although I could be way worse off, my lifestyle and weight have hindered much of my life. Mental health especially.
I lost about 15 pounds over the last 6 months through light exercise and making healthy choices where I could. I lived in a 600 square foot apartment with 3 cats and a significant other for the past 2 years and that's where I jumped from a comfortable 170 to where I am now. I used to be athletic until depression slowly took over. The fact that I even lost that weight in the environment I was in is kind of a miracle. I was miserable.
Anyway, right when COVID19 hit, I closed on a house. That week, my job switched to working from home. Went from a 600 square foot apartment to a 1400 square foot home. First order of business was setting up a personal room for myself (man cave, but I hate the term) and second was a home gym. I have a very nice dumbbell set and an elliptical that spent the last 2 years in storage. Just broke them out and set up a gym on my enclosed back deck. I've worked out every day since March 28th.
I'm confident that I'll accomplish this. I'm back. Looking forward to the journey. The journey from 210 back to 170, specifically.
