I decided to turn things around after gaining 35lbs over the last year, but I also want to have a more fit stronger body rather than just leaner while I lose the weight.
Since Oct 24th, I've been:
- Walking 6-7 miles a day, burning ~600cals
- Going to the gym for full body 1h-1h30 workouts for 4-5 times per week
- Eating 1500-1900cals per day, mostly sticking to intermittent fasting, reduced carbs significantly and taking creatine (probably contributing to water weight)
- Cut alcohol from half a fifth of vodka every night for 2 months (I had mental health issues) to only weekends and no more than one day of heavier drinking. Still working on reducing this but this was already tough for me
I'm likely burning 3000 cals and eating maybe 1700 average so I'm guessing normally the weight loss might be faster but I'm seeing some muscle growth so I'm hoping that's what's happening. Either way I feel much better physically and I'm motivated to keep going even though 165lbs seems pretty far away.
I was a bit bloated so it's kinda cheating but I'll leave it up to you to judge: Front view
