I threw everything I could at this issue to get here. WLS (gastric sleeve), home gym five days a week (the first year I just did body weight workouts in my apartment), running every week day, therapy, dietician, personal training. I'm just getting started, I have a lot of goals I want to achieve this year!
Cico was the main thing using MyFitnessPal but it was physician supervised and I had weight loss surgery which causes a metabolic change in your body eliminating hunger for 18 months post op. Also the calories I ate were like 600 a day for many months. And my stomach volume has been reduced to 4 oz or half a cup of food. I workout almost every day and log my calories in my fitness pal. I've been doing this for two years so now I eat 1,600 cals a day.
I paid $1,500 for the surgery since that's my out of pocket max. My company has good health insurance.
As far as running goes, I started off walking to the end of my block for a year (0.25 miles), then jogging to the end of the block, then running there, then running.5 miles, then .75, then 1 mile. Now I'm trying to get my 15 minute mile to be 13 min. I think I'm always just setting goals then stretching them slowly. As long as I was better than I was the day before I've accomplished something
I lost 100 lbs before I started running. Makes me realize you can't outrun a bad diet...
