I'm a 23M, height is just at 6 foot, SW: 150kg/330lbs on October 2019, CW:132kg/291lbs as of March 10th. My goal weight was to reach 126kg/278lbs by the end of April, I wanted to lose 4 kilograms every month. I wanted to lose weight because I was starting college again from Fall 2020, and I wanted to reach 105kg/231lbs before I start college again.
So I was losing weight steadily from intermittent fasting, calorie counting, eating a 1500-2000 calorie healthy diet, I cut off all sugars and unhealthy fats from my life. And most importantly I was going to the gym 3 days a week until March 10th when my city called a lockdown due to the Covid-19. At the gym for 1-1.5hrs cardio exercises only.
Since March 10th I've been home quarantined and I couldn't get any sort of exercise because there have been people saying that a few Covid-19 victims passed away from my apartment building and other buildings in our area, so I've been stuck at home ever since. The parks where people used to go for morning jogs are closed with yellow tape. I live in a small condominium in North York, Toronto, Canada so there's less space to walk around the house. I even don't have any exercise mat or free weights like kettlebells to do home exercise, maybe I could order online I don't mind doing that, but then I wouldn't know how many reps or sets to do. I can barely do a push up or sit up I have weak arms with some flabs of fat. I used to go to LA Fitness and Planet Fitness, and they're certainly not opening anytime soon.
For the last one month I have been intermittently fasting but not getting the full motivation of it because I have not been going to the gym and I've gained 1 kilogram!
I think what really contributed to my weight loss from 330lbs to 291lbs was Cardio exercise at the gym and 16:8 intermittent fasting. Also going to the gym seeing others workout would give me a motivation boost.
I heard that some people use mobile apps like FitBod or JeFit to lose weight but I'm completely unaware of that since I don't have any exercise machines at home and I can barely do a push up or sit up. In my apartment building we have been given tight restrictions of using the stairs for exercise purposes because of the rising covid cases in my area. And as I mentioned earlier the parks haven been closed with yellow tape.
I'm feeling I've lost track and getting depressed how do I lose weight with home exercise? Or should I start using those mobile apps and getting an exercise mat and some weights online?I was fasting intermittently and losing about 4 kilograms every month until I stopped going to the gym.
