Best weight loss procedure, what has worked for you?

[__d_a_v_i_d__]

Each body is different. Lets all keep that in mind

no easy way around it. that carb cycle thing sounds terrible. I went from 220 to around 130 in a year without really changing my diet but that was running 7 miles a day 5 times a week followed by lifting weights.

changing what you eat is probably gonna be the easiest.

i'd give insanity a shot. i did it for a bit, works pretty well, had to stop cuz cardio makes me too scrawny lol.

congrats on the weight loss, but damn 130? are you 5'2" ?

that's true, my metabolism is pretty crazy right now. i'm around 5'9 5'10. i just got really underweight from running so much. after i dipped under 130 i started making myself gain weight cuz i felt it was unhealthy. right now i don't really do any cardio for that reason.

You can also work out and be a fit 160-175ish

[irpirate]

yea, i try and stay around 160 now. just weights 4-5 times a week.

Maybe it is because I am half Samoan but damn...you guys talk about 130-170...that's like just my bottom half, lol.

completely cutting sodas out of my diet helped me lose a few pounds and i generally feel better than i did before and im sure it's been said before but make sure you keep a healthy diet with normal size portions.. if you try to starve yourself you'll lose some weight but your metabolism goes right down the shitter and once that happens it's hard to recover from

My uncle has been doing this meal replacement shake for awhile and has seen great results and has recently gotten my dad on it. They say it does an excellent job of filling you up, its cheap, and has an amazing amount of nutrients and only something like 90 calories and tastes great if you do it right. Im about to start doing it as well, though more for the nutritional value than weight loss since frankly Im a d3 collegiate athlete.

However the best way get it happens to be through people who are doing it already, (you get benefits by referring people) and since I now happen to be one of those people, feel free to PM me if you want more information and ill be glad to help, but ill stop here because I don't want to be "selling" stuff on here obviously.

Also, one thing that's helped me with losing weight...

Don't consider this as "going on a diet". If you say you're on a "diet", that signifies that, at one point or another, you'll go off the diet. That's not the goal. This is a lifestyle change, should you choose to pursue weight loss. I've adapted this type of thinking, and I went from forcing myself to unhappily eat healthy foods to doing it habitually because it's become a part of my life.

Never call it a diet. Just some mental advice.

Also make sure you still get enough calories.
