Nice work! Weight loss takes commitment, congrats! Hopper, sounds like we were in a similar place. Hit my goal weight this week. Took me a year and 3 months, but I went from 230 to 175. Haven't been at this weight since college, and that was almost 40 years ago. Waist from 38 to 32. Neighbor asked my daughter if I had been sick, so I think that means I'm doing something right? Intermittent Fasting 16/8, running or Orangetheory six days a week, counting calories, and here's the most impactful: I haven't had sugar since January. Now, the tough part: maintenance. I got down to 195 last year, took a tumble and hurt myself running in October, and in what seemed like a flash, was back up to 213 in January. Am very not bugged about where I am now. Summer has been tough for me! I'm still at 196ish, but I have been finding it harder to get out and about watching two kids every day and have found myself snacking more often, but I've done a pretty good job staying away from sugar and I havent been putting on weight. I had a goal of 180 by september, but I dont think I'll hit that unless I really buckle down. I think the other part is I have felt so good that it doesnt make me feel like I need to keep losing weight. My weight is always kind of weird because I have a pretty athletic/thick lower half from my hockey days, so sometimes that can be deceiving. I can see my chin like again and I dont hurt after running, so those are two plusses.
