28 yr old male, 5’10”, went from roughly 174 to 125 in a little over four months.
Started with keto, which I’d done some of before. I found it easier to start by changing what I ate before I worked on how much I ate. For me, switching to a bunch of meat and cheese early on made it easier down the line to restrict calories. Also, seeing the daily measurements from my wi-fi connected scale was a HUGE motivation factor.
After a month or so I started restricting when I ate and how much. I slowly made my way towards IF and OMAD (intermittent fasting, one meal a day). The last month or so I tried every other day fasting (one meal every other day with water or zero calorie drinks only in between.) I was having trouble sticking to it towards the end, so I tried a couple of extended fasts. First a three day, then a seven day. These worked for me, but of course be careful and do your research if you try it.
A lot of the time I was sporadically going to the gym, but it was on and off. Went nearly every day at one point, then would miss a week. :-p
If you have any questions, let me know!
