@emosoundlogic I feel like this is due to a lack of self awareness. I share your frustration with people who do this.

@atlantadad Thank you! Surgery went well and I am already over pretty much all the pain.

@woodgood Sure, it's totally doable. Here is a pic of my progress up to now. Currently at about 19.5% body fat, aiming for under 18%. I was a hardcore drinker and smoker for DECADES. If I can do this, literally anyone can! *And one more thing. I have used MyFitnessPal on and off for three...

@karengodsgirlk2 I was pretty active as a kid up through my early 20s. Then around age 23 or so, I injured myself doing karate, got depressed over that and other life events, and stopped exercising completely in order to dedicate myself full-time to professional drinking. I began packing on...

@loveseternalquestion Holy crap, that's amazing. Maybe you can help me figure something out. Every time I get into a good routine with pushups, it seems like as time goes on, I can do less and less instead of more. I don't understand this. It doesn't hurt or anything, I just run out of muscle...

@woodgood I'm 52 soon and dropped about 65-70 pounds last year. I am not quite as cut yet as the guy in your photo but I'm 85% there. I got here by simply cutting calories (used Myfitnesspal) and a lot of cycling. I am a bit of an extremist and I don't actually recommend doing it as fast as I...

@loveseternalquestion Wow! How many sets of reps?

@binbina Are you taking any measurements with the tape? That would be a good way to tell what's going on.

@binbina Are you actually tracking your caloric intake?

@willp You are killing it, my dude! Fantastic work, and you look amazing! Thank you for sharing!

@matthias10000 Have you looked into HIIT at all? I haven't done it myself but I hear great things. For people who prefer not to spend their time in long cardio sessions, HIIT seems to be the way to go.

@janeevans89 There you go. I think you will find it gives you a nice change of mindset and brings your focus back a little sharper. At least that's what it did for me. I bulked up over the winter (more than I intended... I put on 15 pounds, lol) and have been cutting again all summer. I didn't...

@janeevans89 I'm honestly not sure this is even possible. The amount of protein needed to build muscle would land you well over the amount needed to maintain a caloric deficit. Have you considered going in phases, like three months cutting, three months bulking?

@ceecee1026 Sounds like you're doing great! Welcome and glad you could join us.

@spamdetector Can you say more about what you mean by food is not the enemy?

@dezmond You certainly are not wasting your time with the Kettle bell! You're building core and upper body strength and I cannot think of an example where that should be a bad thing. It will help make your workouts more effective.

@iv65 Gardening is pretty good exercise too! Keep up the great work.

@swindon Are you tracking calories? Not just sort of paying attention, but actually tracking them? Fifteen pounds since August is pretty damn good and you should be patient with yourself. I think most likely you just need to keep on doing what you're doing.

@racheldovah Congrats on losing 10 lbs! If you're already doing IF then you're tackling the first thing I would have suggested, which would be to take a look at what you're eating. More and more, I'm realizing just how much fitness really starts in the kitchen. If you're into tracking your...

@barewitness That's impressive! Got any before and after pics you feel comfortable sharing? Might make a great post 🙂
