    Change your diet. You lose weight in the kitchen.

    Grant yourself a cheat day from time to time but stay on your diet the first months. I’ve been on a diet for about three years now and I can have a cheat day once a week.

    Expect it to be something you have to commit to the rest of your life but believe me, it gets easier. Don’t go on a crash diet but do something that you realistically can maintain.

    Then start with some moderate exercise. Just walking more often is a great way to lose weight.

    You can’t target zones to lose weight but you can tone zones by building muscle. Bigger shoulders lake your waist look thinner.

    Stick to it. You’ll feel better overall. Good luck.

      This is the way.

      I started by just eating less. I cut portions and started counting calories. I did the math and started staying under my number, and the pounds just melted off.

      A couple months later, I added biking and walking. I’m trying to walk at least 30 minutes daily, which is just a nice break from everything.

      I’m down 120 pounds. I want to drop more, but I’ve been pretty stationary for the past 3 months or so. I’m already a new man, and my doctor says I’m fine where I am. I’d like to drop another 10 just to be solidly below 200 for the first time in decades.

      I went to a personal trainer for some ideas on exercises, and I need to fit those workouts into my schedule. I haven’t done that yet, but I need to.

      For me it took a full 6 months of intermittent fasting along with 40 + hr fasts, bodyweight exercise and then cardio to see any significant loss.

      Anyone trying to lose weight should plan for minimum 6months time frame. You won’t see results for at least 3 months.
      Get a digital scale and track ur water weight so UK when you’re actually losing fat.
