I've dropped 70+ pounds twice in my forty years of existence. First time was in my early 20's, got T-boned at an intersection and ejected from the car. Lost about 40 pounds in a week in the I.C.U. and the rest wasted away over the next month or so. I do not recommend that method, but it's a hell of a diet plan if you can survive it. Most recently, I moved the family out of the city and started doing farm boy shit and working construction gigs with a buddy. I've lost 70 pounds so far. No exercise other than the occasional jog around the block (3 miles) with the dogs, but I do that for the puppers more than myself.

I, as in me, went on a 5 hour bike ride the other day. I'm paying for it today but what the heck!

Saw myself in a full length mirror trying on clothes at a local department store dressed only in shorts, I could not believe how fat I was .. I thought I was in reasonable shape, when I got home I hopped onto the bathroom scales I was 103 kilograms.

Every time I went shopping I got into the apple turnovers and cream, strawberry yogurt, ice cream and iced coffee. I stopped 'em all that was two yrs ago ..

When I worked as a rigger in the telecommunication industry I was 78 kilos, which is recommended weight for someone of my height just a tad under 6 feet.

Today before I went out I got back on the scales I was 89 kilos exactly .. so I lost fourteen kilos in two yrs, the times I backslid onto the same sort of thing the weight went back up .. I don't work on the weights so much anymore since I shattered my shoulder in a biking accident.

The television aerobics class I did every day went off the air which put a stop to aerobics .. I would go to the gym twice a day and participate in all their classes till they shut down the gym. So when those things stopped is when weight gain happened.

I am 72 yo and ride a bike when I go shopping or go to the doctor, and just lately have been very happy that the midriff region has firmed up and all celulosity has disappeared .. I intend to keep biking and to stay away from bakery stands and ice cream vendors, and expect the kilos to keep on going down until I get back to my working weight ..

Short work long rest sprinting

I stay in shape, although 2019/2020 was probably the best shape I've ever been in. Lots of physical activity outdoors and weight training when I have time.

It's mostly about feeling good though, I don't really watch the scale much anymore but I like to feel strong and calm and keep that "just worked out" feeling from fading away to softness.

For food I enjoy healthier options anyway so I just try to eat as much as possible.

I've found never getting out of shape to be the best approach.

59 years old. Going on my last military deployment. I worked the fuck out. I lost 40 pounds. Yeah, I was that out of shape, but when I learned they were going to force send a young airman over the holidays to deploy? I went instead. My boys were old enough,

Dropped 19 lbs in 5 months. Started the Zone/Keto diet, and also started working out daily on weekdays and have turned some built up Covid sit around do nothing fat buildup back into muscle. People didn't think I was fat before. I don't do well on a strict diet, having drank half a bottle of wine, 2 beers and a pint of ice cream after dinner repeatedly, but generally eat fairly good.

Broke my back a few years ago and became impossible to stay in shape.
Got pretty bad, but been pretty motivated lately and finally finished setting up a pretty sweet home gym.
So it should be a good summer.
