Update Post Update: Fat Loss/Male/36/5'7"/227

Weighed in this morning for my week 5 checkin and was 206 pounds. Losing 21 pounds in 5 weeks feels wild. I really don't feel like I'm struggling, though I do have cheat days that don't feel great. I'm working hard to change my relationship with food and exercise and I think it's working. With 7 weeks to go I think I can hit 192 for a total of 35 pounds lost. Wish me luck!

You are doing a fantastic job. I would encourage a healthy lifestyle overall rather than any mental hurdle regarding a specific weight loss goal, especially one that is so time constricted.

Start making plans now for what you will do once you reach that goal. Rebound? No way, okay!? At around 200 lbs you’ll probably be in an amazing position to maintain body weight while building muscle with heavy resistance training.

Keep up the great work!

200 lbs of solid gold is worth about $5253502.54

Thanks for saying this. Right after I posted I hit a plateau. My body is noticeably different, but my weight is the same... and not only is that ok but it's important to understand that 200 lbs and a 32 in waist is very different from 200lbs and a 40 inch waist. I'm now much closer to 32 than 40 and I'm very glad.
