3 years ago I came here as I was beginning a lifestyle change and I lost 100 pounds after 18 months but never made it quite below 300. I felt I had done so well that I let some of my bad habits float back into my life. All last year I slowly put on weight and back in may I hit a point where I had to admit to myself I was going to pack on all my weight again as I was binge drinking and eating bad food to go with all the beer that I justified as part of coping with COVID stay at home orders.
My wife had a conversation and brought me to my senses and I resolved to get back on track. I weightled in at 331 in May and just this last Saturday I finally cracked the 300 mark and got to 299.8 and went from 37% body fat to 32%.
I haven't been under 300 in over a decade and I'm so excited to keep going forward. I've been tracking food in lose it counting calories and have been doing cardio for at least 30 minutes 5 times a week. No alcohol, a lot fewer sweet treats, trying to not eat anything for at least 2 hours before bed and make sure to drink water regularly. Thanks to everyone here for the support, it was hard to start and even harder to stay on track but coming here and reading stories from other people always helps remind me it's possible.
