At this point it may as well be about the gain.
A year ago I weighed 270lbs.
I now weigh 195lbs.
All I did was limit my calorie intake to 2400 calories a day. My job requires me to walk approximately 7 miles everyday.
My LA Fitness membership starts soon, which I'll be focusing on shedding body fat with medium intensity cardio.
The real challenge is losing body fat, not losing weight.
>stop eating too much
>much loss, muh skinny
>start working out

My story is going to inspire millions of people.
>be 300 pounds
>discover what calories are
>cut down to 1000 calories per day for a while
>get down to 210
>stop bothering
>stay about 210
>eventually start slowly losing weight because I find things I enjoy and can't be bothered eating as often anymore
>probably about 200 or something now, who knows
Does the eat less move more thing works?
Can a human live bellow 900 calories a day?

I'm thinking about going skelly mode again just cause at least then I can move without feeling like I may die.
I'm just starting. Any tips?
i was fat from like age 10 until age 18, at my heaviest i was 5'10" 250lb, i was fucking disgusting and hideous and had no friends and got bullied constantly. no woman has ever shown me any kind of attention. i just got sick of it all, i got sick of my body and sick of how ugly i was, so i made it a mission to drop the weight and get fit.
i'm now 19 years old, almost 20, and 165lb with actual muscle
i wish i did it sooner. i wish i fucking did it sooner. i could have had friends. i could have had romance. my entire adolescence is gone and i spent it being a sweaty fucking pig. i still can't look myself in the mirror though. my self-esteem is permanently fucked up. i've gotten legitimate compliments about my body but i just can't believe them, i still feel gross, i still feel like a fatass.
i mean, i'm glad i lost the weight, but all i can focus on is the regrets and my past. i'm a healthy adult but i'll always be a fat kid.

>900
No
Literally 1900 is low enough
>>26804245
No, the male body requires minimum 1500 calories a day.

>Does the eat less move more thing works?
Pretty much. Less calories is basically the only thing needed.
>Can a human live bellow 900 calories a day?
Short term yeah, but you feel like shit all the time and it probably isn't very good for you
Stick to 1200 or so, allowing days for higher (not above 2k though) and lower (try not to land below 1k) so you're not too worried about exactness.
>>26804269
Eat less and drink lots of water

I've been the same weight since 8th grade when I became self aware of food and weight.
>tfw cutting the entire huge ass lunch line because no one wants the health option and it's already made
Literally how I got addicted to eating turkey sandwiches everyday
>>26804269
No less than 1500 calories a day, no more than 1800.
Lots of water. try to start with mild exercise like walking, then work your way to something more

>start eating good food again, get up to 175 and stay there for awhile, stay fit with martial arts but end up back at 190 in a few years
>accumulate injuries, can't train, get back to 215
it's whatever
doesn't matter how you look, being fit just halo effects you but its insulting if you're aware of it
plus the people being nice are faggots or vapid sluts
i'd rather be fat so they leave me alone

Mom made me do Jenny Craig with her during summertime because she didn't want to do it alone. 1700 calories a day. Never worked out but I did 3 manual labor jobs. Lost 60 lbs between May 3 and August 3. Waiting until summer time to lose another 40 lbs. I'm still as miserable as I was before I lost weight but now I can wear nicer clothes.

You didn't miss anything. Don't dwell on the past; just keep it in memory.

Fuck.
I went down to 175 or so from about 205 because I stopped eating as much. My mom looked at me and said "Huh, guess you lost weight." That's it.
Is the "sleep 8 hours a day" thing a meme, because it's 4am and I'm still shitposting hard
I was a kind of chubby kid from 6th - 12th grade and stopped eating as much after I graduated and became a skinnyfat guy just barely leaning towards the larger side of skinnyfat.
Didn't lose much weight but never had much to begin with I guess. Sorry if this thread was supposed to be for actually significant weight loss.

I was a fatty until I started walking, which became hiking, which became running. I'm now 5'10'', 160lbs where I was 220 before. I stopped drinking any soda and water became my god. Fast food really isn't that bad. Just don't eat a bunch of sugar.
Lost about 135 pounds since October.
I had gastric bypass because of other health issues (GERD and barrets esophagus) but also because I was super obese. I still have about 75 pounds to lose before I hit my goal. I'm 6'0 and 180ish would be a good weight for me.
>lose weight
>girls all over me
>too autistic for it to turn into anything
>gain weight back
That's pretty much it
>Spent a lot of time in and out of the hospital vomiting blood, lost 30 pounds.
More recently, my gf dumped me and I lost another 15.
>>26804166
I hit 100lbs in 3rd grade and have been gaining weight ever since. 23 now and I just weighed myself earlier today332i need another job here soon, would like one within walking distance that'd make me slim down even more maybe below 300
Problems with self-esteem at 8 grade because I was a bullying target with legs, I just stoped to eat for no reason.. I had lost almost 20kg
>>26806681
im the exact opposite. I eat cause I'm sad.
>>26804166
I used to weigh around 125kg then decide that I may need to lose weight. I started a 90 day program that guaranteed to loose me 20kgs in 90 days so I decided to give it a try.
Do it for a month and loose around 12kg (I also exercised regularly). Around the same time I was starting to smoke a lot of dope.
Get to point where I'm high non stop so end up not having time to do program so I stopped commuting to it (as well as paying for the fat burning tea and what not)
Fast forward 2 weeks and I've smoked weed non stop since that day. Decide to weigh my self and I lost 9kg from smoking weed all day and doing nothing.
This continues till I quit smoking all the time (around 4 months ago) and I weigh myself.I lost all my excess weight and was now 84kg
Today I weigh 88 but it's all muscle from working as a labourer
>>26804166
I started sitting less and walking more
and eating better and now i'm relatively fit and my face is a 7.2 in a e s t h e t i c s now
also my social anxiety is much more manageable now too
