I’m currently on that journey now and everything preached in here was correct.
I started off at 215 on Nov.19th, and as of this morning I weighed in at 207. Here’s what i do:
First, I weigh myself everyday. Only in the morning after I shyt/pee, so my body is as empty as possible.
I eat hard boiled eggs for breakfast. 2 to 3 only.
I also do intermittent fasting. So I only allow myself to eat from 8 to 5, or the hours I’m at the office.
I make myself walk Around the office complex once a day to get my steps in. It’s about a mile.
I completely cut out juice, milk, tea, coffee, soda, energy drinks, alcohol, sports drinks, etc. In other words, I only drink water. At least a gallon but sometimes closer to 2.
I only eat fruit, veggies, and grilled chicken. I love salads. You can pick up a prepare salad bag with all the fixings and dressings from Kroger for like $3. No candy, fried foods, snacks, carbs, or any of that bullshyt.
I do 60 minutes of cardio 5 days a week. I walk for 10 minutes to warm up, and then I run for 50 minutes straight.
I follow up my cardio by lifting weights. Two muscle groups per day. So Basically, Back/Biceps, Chest/Triceps, Shoulders/Legs, and then a day dedicated to abs. I always rest on Sunday. No working out at all.
I don’t do cheat meals. That’s p*ssy shyt.
My goal is to hit 160 by February 9th, which is my 30th birthday. Truthfully, I’ll probably be under 200 pounds by the end of this week.
The truth is, it’s all in your mind. It’s not easy, but consistency will get you there. When you notice yourself starting to plateau and lose less weight, switch up your workout to keep your body confused.
