Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire 150 lbs in a year.

That's how much fat I've lost. I'm down to a solid 180 this morning. I'm pretty sure I posted about my first 20 lbs about this time last year. I did it by cutting out ALL sugar and ALL grain and potatoes. I don't eat anything,even ketchup if it has sugar in it. One other thing hat has really helped me in the last 6 months is intermittent fasting. After working up to it I only eat in a 4-6 hour window every day. Study something called autophagy to learn the benefits.

I have also done this healthy. I work out and ride a mountain bike about 50 or more miles every week. I am off 4 pain pills a day, 3 blood pressure meds, and 4 injections every 3 months. I keep BP checked and it is better than a teenagers now.

I'll get up some before and after pictures soon but wanted to let you guys know that complete transformation is possible. I started at 50 years old in a 4XL shirt and 48-32 pants. I now wear a small shirt and 30-32 jeans. I thought life was about over and I was about wore out at 50. Now at 51 I feel better than I did at 25. 6'2 and 180lbs,not too shabby.

That is great! You should be very proud of yourself.

Good for you!

That's great news! Congratulations for your dedication to eating right and exercising.

Stud.

Glad to hear it R H Clark !

You're right anybody can do it or try and dream up excuses for their overweight - eat less and eat right - excercise it's that simple .

You guys wanting to change,look into the nutritarian type diet. Basically,I eat no sugar,no grain but eat as many different vegetables as close to live as possible. My diet is likely about 25% meat,fish,eggs cheese yogurt, and 75% vegetable. A lot of weeks I only eat meat once or twice,with about 3 days in between.

Congrats!

Same story here. Down 40 lbs from super bowl sunday in Feb.

Keto, and 16:8 intermittent fast. Was 248 lbs, size 40 jeans. Now in 36's and getting close to my goal weight of 198 but might just keep on going because it is such an easy and enjoyable lifestyle.

It is that simple Mike,but hard too because of the food industry.Most people actually think they are eating healthy because of low fat type labeling. The industry however mostly removed the fat and doubled the sugar to make you more addicted. Plus it's the hidden sugars,by which I mean anything that acts just like sugar on the glycemic scale.

Excellent. Are you married? If so, I’ll bet your sex life is much better, too. Women like a healthy man.

Congrats man. I had no idea how much I would lose. Why would I ever go back to eating poison?

It has to be your diet,as in the way you eat definition rather than diet,as in something to start and stop as necessary.

I am. Got my wife on it too. It took a while to get her on board but when I got less fat than her it was eye opening. She had always been the thin one before. She has lost 40 lbs in 6 months. So.yea,we can get in bed now without another person between us.

Congratulations! This is such positive and inspiring news!

Outstanding! Congratulations!

I lost 140,...... a crazy ex😂

But seriously, great job.

Hope you can maintain the gains you have made.

Outstanding! Thanks for the updates.

Congrats! That is quite the accomplishment!

I will cause it is no longer a diet,as in something to start and stop. People get fat and sick because of what they eat,then get healthy and think they can stay healthy going back to doing what got them sick in the first place. Without the addiction to sugar driving everything,thinking is clearer and eating is not an addictive behavior any more,but something to do to feel good.

Nice work. Probably feels good to feel good all the time. :-)
