Woe bro,

What the hell is left of you ???

Congrats bro, look like you are in this FTW ...........

[ReverendMaynard]

What's left is a happier, healthier dude Witchy. Still have a few pounds to go for my goal but that's no issue when I'm averaging 1.26 lbs of loss per day

[Witchdoctor]

Man I wish I had your resolve ....

I can't lose a pound .... new girlfried bakes .....

Bad situation when there is so much good shit laying around

Chocolate cake is my main delema this week, last week it was the pecan sticky buns .....

nice work man! almost 100lbs is madness!

and also, just thought it would be relevant to mention that your body gets energy from 3 places: carbs, fat and protein.

carbs are the easiest to break down, so they are burned first. Now, the reason those low carb diests work is because after you stop eating carbs, your body falls back to the next easiest thing to breakdown: fat. Protein is actually the hardest to break down of the 3. (i am pretty sure rev probably already knows this XD)

Although I really cant relate to any of this, still young @ 6 ft/165

anyhow, amazing work man

[ReverendMaynard]

thanks man, appreciate it.

In my case, my metabolism is hyper fast which means carbs get stored as fat immediately. I could work out 5 hours per day and just burn the fat that carbs where stored at. When I was 100lbs heavier I ate really, really well, unfortunately I ate the wrong foods and this the case with allot of people who never have success just cutting down their portions and struggle to lose weight. Frustrating shit when society labels you as a fat slob when you never eat fast food, exercise and eat better than most people blessed with a good metabolism from the start of of life.

Rev what kind of diet are you going to migrate too to sustain your weight after hitting your target? You gonna stay the same with carb/protein/fat percentages and just scale up the portions?

[ReverendMaynard]

I plan on re-introducing some easy carbs gradually over the next year or so but mostly sticking with the current program. This is a lifestyle change now more than a diet.

Thought I'd note that today marks the 100th pound lost. I feel like a new man.
