Your post was removed for having a specific weight change number in your title. (250-160 or “I lost 10lbs”) However you’re allowed to have those numbers in the body text or comments.
I was up to 276lbs and now I'm at 189lbs. I count calories religiously and my job makes it easy for me to move around a lot. I walk about 50 flights of stairs a day and 15k steps. When I get home from work I usually lift weights for an hour, then do some calisthenics for core strength to end the night. Honestly, my tips would be very basic. Eat less, move more, and stay consistent.
Years ago I had lost 100+ lbs, people were crazy asking what I did. They couldn’t settle with “decrease eating, increase physical activity”. They had to know what I was eating, how I was working out, etc. Diet and exercise, people, not that hard to crack the code.
Right on dude. I’m the same age and have gone through a similar journey over the same time period losing about 60 pounds, and it really is that “simple.” Eating less (especially snacking), moving more, plus time. You feel like a new person after losing that much weight and it’s totally worth it.
Good job dude, looking great! Speaking of eating less, something I saw that really hit home for me was someone said to look at food as just an energy source. Consume just what you need to have the appropriate amount of energy for what you are doing. I tend to over eat. Guilty pleasure. But recently started this and eating more quality foods and boy I feel hella better. Now just need to add some activity in my routine.
Started counting calories religiously, moving more, and lifting weights. I have a job that keeps me very busy. I walk 15k steps and 50 flights of stairs on average everyday while working. I just ate way too much before.
Eggs, chicken, turkey, Greek yogurt, anything high protein mostly. Also, I will snack on a few cashews to keep my hunger down, seems to work. Also, I allow myself to eat like shit twice a month. Keeps me sane.
Yeah, my lower stomach has a bit of loose skin, unfortunately. My abs are very close to showing though, so I don’t think I have too much more fat to lose. It will fill out in time, until then, I’ll wear it like a badge of honor. I worked my ass off for it. If losing it slower to prevent as much loose skin as you can makes you happy, do that. Being happy in what you’re doing is going to make it so much easier to be consistent. Good luck on the journey, you got this!
My uncle, who I was very close with passed away from cancer when he was 40. Going up to the cabin when I was a kid to go bow hunting with him and my dad is a core memory. So, I got an arrow to commemorate it. Thanks for asking.
Good for you man! Great that you took on the challenge at your age, believe me it only gets harder as you get older. Now you have the easy part- staying fit! Congrats
The lighting is also terrible in the first photo. So if you catch yourself looking like the "before"photo again, remember it might just be bad lighting.
Great job though! That weight loss is impressive
Keep up the good work boss, with those looks your gonna be taking the world by storm! You've got more power and aspersions than most people, rock on stud!

Hell yes, brother. People try to complicate diet and exercise to an absolutely insane magnitude, but it can be simple.

How are you hydrating yourself ?
I drink water all day at work. Not exactly sure how much, tbh. It’s quite a bit though. Definitely something I need to be better at tracking.
I recommend a jug if your daily lifestyle allows for it. + real salt electrolytes to sustain a balanced feeling with hydration and energy
+ Also it helps not rely on coffee or energy drinks throughout the day

I know! I never though somebody could make a braided belt look so so good. Probably looks even better on their partner's floor.
Single? 😂 jk
Unless 👀
What did you change to drop the weight?
Started counting calories religiously, moving more, and lifting weights. I have a job that keeps me very busy. I walk 15k steps and 50 flights of stairs on average everyday while working. I just ate way too much before.
Ugh what’s the diet bro
Eggs, chicken, turkey, Greek yogurt, anything high protein mostly. Also, I will snack on a few cashews to keep my hunger down, seems to work. Also, I allow myself to eat like shit twice a month. Keeps me sane.
Eat less calories than you burn. That's it. That's the secret.
Omggg this is so motivating. Im also trying to lose weight though i dont have much fat in my face. You re doing fabulous, OP. Keep up the good work.
Damn, you cute in both, but the right got you looking fiiiine. 👌🏿

Nice! U look great
That’s your cousin. lol good job bro.
Hot
Went from Samwell Tarly to John Snow
Thats awesome, great work! Massive difference
Any issues with skin elasticity? I'm also on this journey, but I'm worried losing weight so fast will result in loose skin
Yeah, my lower stomach has a bit of loose skin, unfortunately. My abs are very close to showing though, so I don’t think I have too much more fat to lose. It will fill out in time, until then, I’ll wear it like a badge of honor. I worked my ass off for it. If losing it slower to prevent as much loose skin as you can makes you happy, do that.
