but the good news is that it was in the downward direction, woke up this morning and was 299.2 on the scale. started over a year ago at 395 and now im only 4lbs away from having lost 100lbs, did 80 in the kitchen alone with no exercise at all via paleo (kinda a human experiment on food only weight loss), and just recently took up cycling for high intensity low impact cardio. once I hit the 100lb mark im going to join a gym and slowing get back into moderate lifting to help with more weight loss and muscle tone, I had a LBM / 7 site BF% done and at 315 I was 26.2% BF with 232 being a LBM/0% , so I think 250ish with 10%BF seems like a reasonable goal to achieve.

Congratulations! Healthy body, healthy mind! Keep it up.

I came here to see in which direction you broke 300:  trying gain/lose and on the up/downside.

Congrats and in before you're doing it all wrong and you're told how to lose wight properly.

The additional physical activity will add muscle mass and help counteract the law of diminishing returns (the more you lose, the harder it is to lose).

Congratulations! I know what you're going through. I topped out at 316# a couple of years ago, decided to do something about it, and got down to 295# with the Weight Watchers online program (you keep track of what you're eating and assign caloric values to each serving). More lately I married a woman who is diabetic; her diet makes her count carbohydrated grams, and I'm now down to 280 pounds!

Keep up the good work!

Way to go man! keep it up!

Are you saying that at 315lbs without lifting weights you were 26% body fat?  Are you 8 feet tall?

6'5

Congrats I'm getting ready to start chasing you. Was 392 at the dr today. Got to do something

if I can do it , so can you, I just hit the 100lb mark today of 295, just know its going to be a long bumpy road with minor setbacks, but hardwork and determination will make you accomplish it, and that its a lifestyle change and not a diet

Hell yeah dude! keep it up

Great job, dude! Keep up the good work!

Best part is gonna be in another 50 pounds when you've started lifting and you have that "exFatGuy Strength". It's a small consolation for years of poor health but it's a real thing.
