2,092 Calories Daily to reach 170lbs by May 2022 (6 months)

As im writing this as of today i've been on my 2nd consistent week of going to the gym everyday. Its been a while since I was this commited or motivated to actually go and attempt to lose weight. My workouts are all centered around weightlifting and afterwards I end it with a usual bit of sit-ups or a mile on the tredmile or cycle. There really is no cardio involved when im working out its just all weights. I know that I have to watch my calorie intake but I just feel like if Im working out everyday then I should be able to reach my goal sooner than May 2022. Basically I want to get some guidance on how to approach reaching my goal or advice from someone who was in a similar range of weight loss. Give me workouts, nutrition, and anything else which may be helpful :)

Lipid binder before a big meal, thoughts??

With the holiday season coming up, I thought about the impacts of massive meals, such as Christmas dinner, on my diet and overall weight loss.

I’m at the point of my weight loss that I will indulge myself regardless as I’m able back to a proper diet pretty quickly and my goals are shifting towards getting leaner, rather than overall weight loss.

Would lipid binders mitigate the impacts of large and unhealthy meals?

My reasoning is that it could help the lipid binder would reduce the overall calories absorbed from the meals, this mitigating the impacts of meals.

However, I’m lacking in actual scientific evidence regarding this. Can anyone provide insight?

This is obviously just a quick thought and will not be for everyone.

Also feel free to tell me if I’m completely wrong, I just thought this was interesting.

I’m also unsure if this is the best subreddit for the question as this is more for getting leaner rather than overall weight loss, let me know if there’s a better place to ask this question.

Depression and Weight gain…my journey so far

Over the last four years I have been on several medication regimens in an attempt to help manage major depression. Consequently, I gained 50 pounds and insulin resistance as a side effect of some of the medications that I tried.

I am now on a medication regimen that does not cause weight gain or insulin resistance. I started metformin for pre-diabetes and stopped drinking about six months ago. That coupled with a vigorous summer mountain biking hobby resulted in 20 pounds of weight loss.

I am very happy with the results. Now that winter is here, my depression is worse, daylight is less, and mountain biking is not an option. I’m not happy with myself from an accountability standpoint—I’ve lost momentum and I’ve stopped showing up for myself.

I’m 30ish pounds from hitting my fat loss goal. If I gain some muscle, that’s great.

I’m looking for ideas to get myself back on track…being true to what I need which is physical outlets to keep my weight loss going and to keep pushing myself forward. Mindset, workout ideas, etc are welcome.

Big drop day after starting methylprednisolone dose pack

ETA: I’m an early 30s F. Height 5’6”, SW: 153 (started back in May, took a break, then restarted at the end of October at 143). CW: 137.4

My weight loss has been pretty slow and steady over the past few weeks (averaging about ~1 lb a week since the end of October). I was just prescribed methylprednisolone for a health condition and started the dose pack yesterday (dose tapers from 24mg on day 1 down to 4mg on day 6). I was expecting my weight to stagnate or go up a little since I think steroids are known to make a person retain water. But I woke up this morning down 2.4 lbs from my previous lowest weight (and down 3.6 lbs from yesterday’s weight). I kind of couldn’t believe it. Is this just coincidence or is it likely a result of the steroid reducing inflammation throughout my body (which was probably pretty inflamed thus the need for the steroid in the first place)?

Century Club - November 25, 2021 - Have you lost or need to lose 100 lbs or more? Here’s a thread just for you!

I have often welcomed those who have lost 100+ lbs (~ 50 kg , ~7 stone) to “the club” and joked that club meetings were on Thursdays. I recently suggested that we try out having a regular weekly thread to talk about issues that are particular to those who have lost 100+ lbs, those who are well on their way and those who are just at the beginning of a journey this big.

Welcome back to the Century Club! Each week I will provide a topic of the day that has been on my mind or inspired by previous posts. However you are free to talk about any topics you think might be relevant to current and prospective club members.

Previous Topics: New Beginnings - Clothing - Years and Years - Food Holidays - Health - What Keeps You Going? - Uniqueness - Aesthetics - Resetting Goals - Routine Breaks - Metrics - Starting - Dog Days of Summer -"Bad" Days - Labels - Aches and Pains - Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes... - Accountability - Elevator Pitches - (Half-)Marathon Training - Celebrations - Water Weight - Comments - Travel - Disconnects - Activity - Years! - Fun! - Rhythms - How strict? - Relationships - Loose Skin Redux - Multiple Centuries - April Fools! - What didn't work? - Milestones - Seasonal changes - Is it worth it? - Surprising Food Facts - Mistakes were made - Time to Vent - Relief Valves - Seeing Objectively - Tips you hate - Fear and Self-Loathing - Starting - 2020 recap

Giving Thanks

Today is Thanksgiving Day in the USA. Usually a day for family and friends, large meals, and wholly unnecessary amounts of food. Days like this can be stressful for anyone on a weight loss journey. So first off, take a breath. Then give thanks.

Even though these continue to be abnormal times and I hope all of you Centurions can take a brief pause to give thanks to all of those people who form their support structure. Be it direct support of your weight loss efforts or just emotional support, they're out there and deserve our thanks.

I hope you can enjoy a meal with your loved ones ad above all stay happy and healthy as we really enter the end of year holiday season.

My partner has been volunteering at our town's FOod Bank recently and I joined her for the first time yesterday for a 3 hour shift of backbreaking work serving my community in need, and I'm about to head to my local Turkey Trot to support those who want to move a bit before diving headfirst into food.

I'm thankful for the following people this in 2021:

• My young adult children
• My partner (who has literally been with me from thick to thin)
• My extended family whom I still won't get to see this year
• My doctors who help me stay healthy, and all the health care workers especially those who will STILL not get to celebrate because they are taking care of others!
• My local parkrun communities.
• Anyone and everyone who volunteers their time to feed others in need
• The entire supply chain that brings healthy food from farms to our tables.
• Last, but not least the community here at r/loseit

My partner and I are having a bit more of a traditional celebration as we have invited a couple of close friends who don't have family in the area. We' repeating the affair again on Saturday evening with my kids as they spend Thanksgiving with their mom.

What about you Centurion? What are you thankful for in 2021?

Any advice on "reminding" myself daily to stick to my routines?

Hey all,

I'm recently trying to lose weight that I've gained back after a previous weight loss journey and I'm finding it much harder to do this time around.

My biggest issue is just on a daily (and even hourly) basis "reminding" myself why I feel the way I do and sticking to my routines and not snack/over eat.

The easiest method I guess would be to set alarms on my phone every so often, but they become pretty obnoxious in every day life and easy to ignore.

Is there any app people use? Just have people hold them accountable? Any strategies really to just keep my mind on the goal?

I need to focus and I keep slipping every day thinking "ah it's fine, one fast food trip today won't hurt". Obviously the answer is to catch myself and don't do those trips, but that's much much much easier said than done when impulse is as powerful as it is.

I've done the weight loss journey before, and I know I can do it again. I just need a bit more help this time around.

12 kg in almost 3 months

photo and video

I was 130kg on Sept 18th when I last checked my weight before leaving my home country to Canada to start my uni life and save my fat ass. I am currently 118kg. Most people would recommend that I only do cardio and do weights later but I currently do about 5-8km of cardio a day plus climbing a 10% gradient hill(500-800m) everyday from home to uni. So I thought doing weights too will help. I have been prty confident from the all back dress photo I took in the gym. But after seeing today's video of the cable row, I kinda lost my confidence again after seeing that thiccc ass which is usually my biggest insecurity after my tiddies.

Is there anything I can do to help loose the fat in my ass a bit faster? . I plan to hit 95-100kg with a buff body in like 6-8 months. Diet seems prty good though now I don't feel like eating ever. Which should be another post on its own. But I do make sure to hit over atleast 70-90grams of protein even though I should be hitting about 120-150grams based on online calculators. I even started a part time gig as a dishwasher(3 days a week) to boost my weight loss and stay on my feet all day( got a foot bump today prolly due to overuse of my foot).

Tl;Dr I want to know what I can do about my ass and should I be making any lifestyle changes to accommodate my job/6 day a week gym(ppl)
