Have your wife tell you she loves another man works every time! Chortle. That would be the "bourbon and bacon" diet. Problem is bourbon's out on this diet, so back to square one.

15 in a month is great. I lost 150 lbs starting about five years ago. I lost about 5 lbs a month initially. Then less as time went on. Never gained any back and started focusing on losing 3-5 lbs per month again about two months ago instead of just maintaining. While I got another 60 to lose I look at it as my main goal is to keep that 150 I already lost off. I spent my adult life losing and gaining until I changed my lifestyle and eating habits. Also my dieting habits. Initially my buddies and even my doctor scoffed at my seemingly slow weight loss. But being on a long term sustainable program has paid off for me. Time for me to take my weight down to the next level. I got tired of going up and down. I could lose 50/60 lbs and reach my goal but then I went right back to the same bad eating habits that caused me to gain weight in the first place. Now the goal is not reaching a certain weight but maintaining good habits for the long haul.

My Doctor asked me back in 2014 “How many old fat people Do you see?” Got me to thinking. I started a low carb diet and went from 292lbs to 223 pounds. My wife complained that I looked too skinny. I kind of ate what I wanted for a couple years (still working out 3 times a week) and went back up to 243lbs. I’m a type 2 diabetic. The last visit my Doc suggested I try intermittent fasting. Been doing that for about 2 1/2 months, and I’m back down to 226lbs. Diet is the key. You can’t out train a poor diet.
Yep on
