From Fat to Fit 2025 - I Really Mean It This Time! (1 Viewer)

[Major]

Last time I checked, a week or so ago, I was down 20 pounds since January, 246 to 225.

Over the past couple of weeks I have had multiple people ask if I have lost weight so something is working.

Continuing to hit 11k-13k steps/day and am on a 33 day streak that may come to an end today as I am going to be on flights all day (SAN-PHL and PHL-BCN) but I’ll probably try to get them in during my 3 hour layover in Philly.

My initial target is 220 but the pace has slowed lately. I’m at the front end of a two-week business trip so hopefully I can maintain the structure of my diet. I have been pretty good on the trip so far with the exception of a shared dessert a couple of nights ago and the little box of gummy bears that the hotel gave as a welcome gift when I checked in.

Awesome work with the steps. I aim for 10-15k/daily as well with a no excuses mentality. Layovers at the airports are a great way to take advantage of all the extra time/space to "explore" every nook and cranny of the various terminals. I normally have a small carryon - duffle bag/garment bag that provides some extra weight for farmer carries i.e. not a roller guy. No reason to plop yourself in front of a gate and watch youtube videos for hours if you're serious about losing fat.

Thanks for guilting me into it.

I’ll report back on my findings….

And I’ll be sitting in the brand new Chase Sapphire lounge in Philly, not at the gate with the peasants.

That's definitely another hurdle but I also find these walks as a chance to humble myself and bless the commoners with my presence. Kinda feel like the pope sometimes.

Totally fake Ozempic update: Back under 190 and looking good. I know the availability may crash one day and I’mma need this thread (I need it now for shaping —and to be in shape, frankly) but this feels good and my sugar is good. What a miraculous drug this is and I hope nothing external precludes its availability.

That’s the rub. Y’all are nervous about regimens and relapse; I worry about supply and demand. I wish you all well. No doubt. Remember that the ant always has the necessities and the grasshopper hopes for largesse.

Trying to get to 170, which would be the lowest weight in many decades, but I'm stuck around 175. I'll get there though.

I know they're not entirely accurate and can vary depending on hydration level, but my "smart" scale (body impedance) says my body fat % is down 4 points from earlier this year and muscle % is up a couple of points. Getting closer to 170 too. Just might make it "soon"

172.6 this morning; 170 squarely in my sites by the end of the month.

I’m going in the opposite direction so slap it high!

As long as I hit 7k steps, I'm happy. But the goal usually is 10k

Nothing fake about it GB! Keep it focused!

I know you'll be back though, sometimes we need a little break. I did make it below 170, but I'm guessing the "excessive" beer yesterday cured that. 6 hours of walking and dragging a cart around today should fix that.

You can do this!

And so can I! Took a bunch of weeks off — and presto……up 6.5 lbs. On a short person’s frame. Ugh.

Starting tonight I’m back at it. Just settling in to do 2 workouts now. Work travel the next 3 weeks, which means I need to count calories and be smart. Follow the process that works for me.

I was gonna post the same. It’s actually kinda fun to explore the less traveled places in airports. Also, there are usually plenty of stairs.

Member/Guest Golf tourneys and Vegas weekends back to back are not good for the scale. Recovering now and back on it

Tripped another couple milestones today, I'm officially under 250 (started 358) and over 110 lost, coming in at 247 this morning. Down 5 lbs. from Monday's weigh in. While I have been more active I'm guessing I was a little dehydrated so we will see tomorrow.

Mounjaro you sexy little minx.

Thanks. It's taken almost three years and lifestyle changes but without the GLP1 I would be sunk.
