I find that planning out your meals ahead works wonders when trying to lose weight... Dieting is 70% of the battle for me. I like checking out /r/MealPrepSunday for ideas on what to make for the week... The hardest part of dieting is cutting out the alcohol... Roll Eyes

For me it is very similar.

Diet is huge.

I just dont plan my meals. MY fridge is just filled with foods that are non GMO organic and that I like to eat. SO even when I have cravings there is always something to help with that specific craving that wont make me gain weight instantly.

Also consistency is #1.

Without it, my whole plan would fail.

I'm down in the low 200's from originally around 260-265. Huge life changer.

That must feel good! Awesome!

Are most of the workout you do stuff that you can do at home? Or do you go to a gym? I think the main thing for me is getting out and jogging, but I get real bad shin splints and problems with my ankles all the time... When I was a member at a schools gym in college I would just stick to the cardio machines, but now since I'm out of college I don't have that priveledge any more... so I never made that decision if it was worth going and getting another gym membership or not.

I just hate how they have to rope you in the year long contracts and that sort of thing.

I'm not a big gym fan either myself. I used to try and run 5 miles a day, that kept me in really great shape until I got too old and have knee/hip issues, so have had to cut it down. Don't like lifint weights much either, but may sell my treadmill (expensive one that's getting old) for a new elliptical, but I've never used one yet either. Thanks. Good stuff to read.
