I'm 5' 10" and ~160 lbs currently.
I lost around 30 lbs in 2019 and am down around 50 lbs from my heaviest. This year I'm going to try and continue to lose fat and gain muscle. I don't Ike posting pictures of myself. I guess one of my New Years resolutions is to do that. Me before:  Attached FileMe as of Dec 31st 2019:  Attached File Attached FileI do have some loose skin from the fat loss. The stretch marks were preexisting from puberty. |

I'll have another go here. Currently 219# and full-on fat at 5'10". Also noticed a lack of consistency and discipline this past half of the year. I need to get back and "conquer my inner bitch."

I feel like a completely different person than I was a year ago. At first it was a big change but now my diet and activities are just normal, everyday me. Good luck! |

One suggestion. Don't make a ton of changes at once. I limited my calories when I first started but I still ate some pizza and soda. I went from 2 pieces of pizza, to 1, then to 0. I went from 2 sodas, to 1, to 0. I was able to substitute other foods I enjoyed with better macros and micros when I gave up those things. Every once in a while I'll have a piece of pizza if it fits my macros. I think most diets fail because people do a 180 and are eating things they don't like.

I'm in again. Currently ~195#, down from 240# a bit over a year ago.
Didn't hit all if last year's goals, as some were a hit too optimistic. This year, I will: - finish getting a six pack (probably means dropping ~10#) - build a bit more muscle (probably 10-15#) |

Really need to get control of my eating. Not crazy overweight at 205 and 5'10 but my belly is getting too big. Been lifting regularly 3x per week this whole past year and added good strength and some size. Switching to a 4x week program and will add some more cardio. Sweets kill my diet.

2019 kicked the shit out of me, I had C5C6C7 fusion in March, and a bursa removal in my left elbow at the end of November (I'm left handed FYI). But I've manage to hit the gym in between recovery and has lost 20 pounds so far. Currently, 5'11" and 205lbs, I'd like to lose another 20lbs but who knows. |

I am in. I am 5’8" and weigh 225. Have a 18" neck, 34 waist, 16-1/2" arms, 47 chest and 17-1/2 calves. Most of my getting fat has come from riding a desk for 8 months. Usually walk 6-9 miles a day at work before I went in to Management. I have a larger gut and love handles.
I have bad disc at C3/4/5 and L4/5/S1, so maybe core strength is needed. If I try to jog it kills my lower back, so what can I do for cardio? I am going to start a high protein / low carb diet tomorrow. Any tips or ideas, exercises is welcome. |

I would try and stick with a diet and cardio routine, at least for a few months so you can get the swing of things. I too rode a desk for 12 years and it sucked. Diet, cut out all beer and fast food, then try to cook more at home. Too easy right?

I have made sure to be consistent with exercise. I don't use it to lose weight necessarily, it's just something I do for health. I lose fat by adjusting my calories. Don't go all in our all out with the low carb diet. If it doesn't work for you try a healthy moderate or high carb diet. |

In as well. I'm 6'3" 210ish. 07/01/2017 I was about 300 pounds. I made a life changing decision that day ( i had been planning it for a while and tried many times before and failed). Since then I lost about 100 pounds. Gained some back this year due to a pretty bad back injury. Only about 20 pounds. I'm wanting to get to 180, have some definition in muscles and bench 225, or 100 pound dumbells. Diet and consistency is my hardest obstacle (as it is with most). I'm getting a lot better with meal prep, which has helped me a lot. I work at a bar and work weird hours. I don't have the luxury of being able to eat at set times, if I can even eat at all some nights. Just the reality if my situation. I'll load some pics when I can.

I like the Epic Performance Bars and the Naked Nutrition Protein Bars for on the go but they aren't for everyone. If I wake up in the middle of the night and get up to pee, I'll drink a protein shake then too. |

This is a post to everyone.
I have heard a lot of people in weight loss challenges have the scale not move after a week or weeks. What they usually say is the reason is that they are probably gaining as much weight in muscle as they are losing in fat because they are working out. Very, very high chance they're not. It's just that they are 50 lbs, 100 lbs overweight and it's way easier to lose fat than it is to gain muscle. It takes a long time to gain a pound of actual muscle but you can lose multiple pounds of fat in a week. Besides, you're not going to gain 50 lbs of muscle. Now, "recomping" is technically possible but we're talking about people who's main goal is fat loss, not muscle building. If you look at someone like me... If I ate around calorie maintenance, I could potentially lose fat and gain muscle at about the same rate and not see the scale move much. If I am trying to lose fat and am eating in a calorie deficit, then I should be losing fat and dropping scale weight. I hope that makes sense. |

I've been pretty constant at the 205lb mark, some mornings it dips below 200. I work out (lifting) 5 days a week but really need to do more cardio. Current supplements: protein and a pre-workout from Steel, with a new round of "stack" on the way. |

 Attached FileStaring weight of ~185lbs, 17%bf 6’1 32 and the beer is starting to catch up with my metabolism. Goal is to get the body fat down to 13% then start to bulk. Would like to get back up to 190-200 by the end of the year. 15” arms and a six pack by July. I’m two weeks in and down 1%bf and down 4lbs. All I’m doing right now is peloton rides daily (sometimes a couple per day) and at home body weight work outs. I’m planning on hitting the gym starting in Feb. Hopefully progress pics to come. I need to post to hold myself accountable since no one else is going to ??????? |

I’ll throw my hat in.
Currently 6’1” 223-228lbs. (I drink about a gallon of water a day.) I’m down from 330lbs, starting April of 2017. I was on a pretty good pace till last year. Ended up with an internal staph infection, requiring a 1.5in mass and umbilical hernia repair. I was basically done with my weight loss at the end of June and didn’t get the clear to work out again till late fall. According to navy measurements for body fat, I’m at 22%. Weight loss goal: 205lbs. After that I want to add 5-10lbs back on, doing the cut and bulk game between 200 and 210lbs. I’ve lost significant strength from the fat loss over the years. First year of dieting I loss 56lbs. The second year and half was the next 54lbs. It’s been a slow and steady game, this last 20-30lbs is going to be the worse. |

Welcome everybody!
I hate seeing people say "I need to lose 15 lbs" or "I would like to be 195 lbs". I know goals are important but I don't think many people actually know what their end weight should be until they actually get there. You definitely can't base this number on what other people your height weigh. I understand that body fat percentages are hard to determine but a goal of getting under 25% body fat for an obese person or under 20% for an overweight person would be much better than a scale number. Getting to 15% or 10% for someone who has more appearance related goals is there too. 10% is very lean and most people (even people that workout) aren't 10%. Body fat distribution is different for everyone but if you can't see your abs, you're probably at 20% body fat. "Bulking" definitely isn't recommended if you are at 20% body fat. The ability to run X distance at Y pace without stopping or running Z minutes at Y pace on a treadmill is something you can reach for and then possibly make the goal harder if you reach it. Getting cholesterol under a certain amount or blood pressure within normal range could be useful goals as well. |

Back when I decided I needed to get back in shape, I didn't really set a goal until I got my bathroom scale that does the body fat, muscle mass, weight, etc stuff and asked for a goal. I had started out at 196lbs and had 26% body fat and set it at a goal of 175. I hit 169 and got down at one point to 17% body fat. I've evened off at 173 pounds with this mornings weigh in, and my body fat is at 18.6%.
My goals are just to get back in the gym and burn some fat on the elliptical and do some basic exercises to keep in shape. Just turned 55 on the 7th and am the same age that my middle brother was just over 5 years ago when he had a fatal heart attack. Losing him made me look at my own health and realize I needed to do something. |

Welcome everybody! I hate seeing people say "I need to lose 15 lbs" or "I would like to be 195 lbs". I know goals are important but I don't think many people actually know what their end weight should be until they actually get there. You definitely can't base this number on what other people your height weigh. I understand that body fat percentages are hard to determine but a goal of getting under 25% body fat for an obese person or under 20% for an overweight person would be much better than a scale number. Getting to 15% or 10% for someone who has more appearance related goals is there too. 10% is very lean and most people (even people that workout) aren't 10%. Body fat distribution is different for everyone but if you can't see your abs, you're probably at 20% body fat. "Bulking" definitely isn't recommended if you are at 20% body fat. The ability to run X distance at Y pace without stopping or running Z minutes at Y pace on a treadmill is something you can reach for and then possibly make the goal harder if you reach it. Getting cholesterol under a certain amount or blood pressure within normal range could be useful goals as well. The best shape of my life, in my 20s, I was always in the 175lb range. But, I was in the Army and ran 5 miles every morning and lifted during lunch when I could. No idea what my body fat was back then but I can assume it was around 10%. This morning I was 205lb, which is what I have been the past few months. I am getting stronger, body is just now starting to change a little and I've had to buy all new clothes. Went from an XL in shirts and 38 in pants, down to a L in shirts and 36 in pants. So whatever I'm doing is slowly working. Current supplements: BCAA, Protein, and a fat burner from Steel Supplements. I also take Fish Oil and a multi-vitamin from GNC. |

Back when I decided I needed to get back in shape, I didn't really set a goal until I got my bathroom scale that does the body fat, muscle mass, weight, etc stuff and asked for a goal. I had started out at 196lbs and had 26% body fat and set it at a goal of 175. I hit 169 and got down at one point to 17% body fat. I've evened off at 173 pounds with this mornings weigh in, and my body fat is at 18.6%.
