    108 days into a lifestyle change. Started at 202lbs and 30% body fat. I’ve been eating 1650 calories per day, getting 160 grams of protein, walking 5 miles per day, and lifting full body 3x per week. I stopped drinking alcohol. I’ve gained muscle and strength while losing 27 pounds of fat. I feel and look better than I ever have and it’s only been barely over 3 months. I have a standing desk in my home office so I bought a walking pad to get steps in during work anad I often will have 2-3 miles accomplished at a slow pace by the end of the day. I’m basically walking a half marathon throughout the week while working and it’s mindless. Currently 175 lbs and around 18% body fat.

After coming up with my own diet, cooking regime and other changes (no sugar, booze or processed foods), I am now averaging 1.4% body fat loss per week (over 15 weeks so far). As of this morning, I am now 98kgs/216 pounds and my gut/love handles have shrunk from 125cm to 104cms and waist from 115 cms to 101cms. I walk 4kms six days per week and workout 3 days per week and do core work 2 days per week (I hate situps). I fast for 36 hours in the middle of the week to kick in keto for that period.

    I started a new job about 6 months ago. Much more active, on my feet job where I'm getting 30k plus steps a day. I was still eating crap, but slowly lost 10lbs in about 5 months. I took that opportunity to change my diet a bit. Cutting out the crap food, less carbs, more protein, weight training on top of my 30k daily steps. Im down 20lbs in the past 4 weeks. Feel amazing, so much energy, don't even crave any of the crap anymore. Still going strong 💪

    I'm currently on my weight loss journey/ lifestyle change. At my heaviest I was 357lbs Keto and workouts yoyoed me down to around 315-325lbs. March 1st, 2024 I was 317lbs I got serious, worked out daily hit 10k steps a day even on vacations and eventually started Omad/Intermittent fast consuming around 1500cal a day with 200g of protein. I on 6/26/2024 now am 266.2lbs. My goal weight is 230lbs as my military 6pack under 10% body fat weight was 220-225. In 3months 3 weeks I have lost 51lbs. Thats 2 days from 17weeks losing 3lbs a week.

Decided to lose weight and got down to 215 in about a year . I’ve plateaued. I started to gain and got to 220z . In may i started to increase my steps to Atleast 7000 or more 5 days a week and added resistance training. I’ve started to lose weight again but this time it’s more inches than weight. I’ve lost 7 lbs since may. My goal is 195. I’m 6ft 2in. It’s not easy and I’ve had to increase how much I move to get it going again.

      Keep in mind if you're lifting weights with a proper program and you weren't lifting before, you are likely gaining muscle along with losing fat so the scale may not reflect your hard work. Keep at it my friend, you're doing the work.

    Tried out alot of things to see what works effectively on myself. Calories deficit is a must. Intermitted fastening can work to a certain extend, 14hours daily(includes sleep) is what works for me. Drinking enough water and getting enough protein. Walking helped alot at the heavier stages. Currently focusing on strength training, arms and chest mainly but the rest of the body as well. Body recomposition stage, progressing well. Still struggling with getting more sleep, natural bad sleeper here. Great vid as usual, getting better with the cam there I noticed 😁

    I agree, slow fat loss sucks, and lot's of Studies have shown that as long as one is eating 1 gr per protein per pound of ideal bodyweight and train hard enough in the gym without doing crazy cardio, just zone 2 or walking 10k steps, you will lose practically only fat, I have tried the slow approach compared to a PSMF and the results were the same, but the huge difference was the time of the fat lost, that's why I'm not doing to do normal slow dieting again, for me PSMF is the best approach, now I'm bulking at like 14% bodyfat, after I finish my bulk in a couple of month, I will definitely do a PSMF until I get to single digit.

    I’ve been diligently using MacroFactor for a little over a year now, so it’s dialed in pretty well to my current expenditure. When I adjusted my goal to match your suggested 2% body weight loss/week, my daily calories dropped down to 1200. 😅
    I’m currently lifting 3x per week, sprinkling of cardio, but I’m also pretty short and work a desk job. Is dropping to 1200 cals something you’d recommend? Or what would you suggest as the lowest I go?

      Slow and steady. Muscle loss at a minimum. Gained a ton of muscle as well on this cut.
      Still, more aggressive approach will be better from now on i think

      HAhahah I HAVE and it was absolutely dreadful.
      Not to mention, I had no business doing it because I was just skinny fat and the problem was that I had NO MUSCLE.

    Confused how you kept muscle when you lost weight? Would you recommend weight training first and then cardio after? How much cardio is too much cardio as well because doesn't LISS burn more fat than HIIT?? Possible things you can address in your next vids PLEASE!!

      I trained for muscle growth, slept plenty, and ate adequate protein while losing weight.
      Cardio is just a bonus way to add extra calorie burn.
