Today I just hit 75lbs total weightloss, I started at 310 back in march 2020 and started to lose weight due to being worried about covid-19 and its effects on obese people. I want to live if I catch it and so want the very best chance of fighting it off!
in 23 lbs I will no longer be obese - and will just be overweight.

This is my current progress up until a month ago, in a little over 7 weeks it will be my 1 year anniversary from starting, I cant believe its gone so quick!
That said every pound lost seems like a grind now, I really want to get down to 190 lbs so i can start eating maintenance and gaining more strength as I have started to really enjoy building myself in the gym, but its extremely limited on a calorie deficit and now I have been lifting for six months and losing fat its getting harder to gain muscle/strength on a cut.
I just do CICO and weight training 3 times a week (eat 2000 - 2200 calories a day), no cardio - but its working well, I also eat 5 meals a day and carbs at each meal.. I find this gives me the energy to train heavy and building new muscle is helping me lose weight by raising my metabolic rate (I think)
The funny thing is I didn't plan to do any of this, but after a week on the program knew i will succeeded. I dont want too sound cocky, I have failed Many times before...But something was different this time, I just KNEW without doubt id do it,
So if you are reading lose it today wondering if you can do the same - and you have failed many times before so lack confidence in your ability's - Know that you CAN do it, you just need to want it bad enough, if you have failed in the past its because you want food more than your health! Keep trying and you will succeed.
