Hello everyone. I'm new here. I thought I would share my weight loss story.
Basically, i've been overweight for the past 12 years, putting a few pounds every year. On March 18th of this year, I weighed 215 pounds, and decided enough is enough. The first thing i did was cut mayo, butter, ice cream, candy, cheese, and ALL fast food from my diet. The exercise was slow getting started, because it had been so long. So I started with 6 mile bike rides twice a week, and walk/jog 2 miles once a week. started weight training at about week three, continuing the strict diet. As I went along through the weeks I increased the cardio and weight training as my physical condition improved. Now i am currently riding 100 miles a week and weight training 4 days a week.
I am 36 years old, and I can't believe how I feel!!! I feel like I did when I was 20, seriously. Looking better isn't even half the reward, the real reward is how you feel, I wouln't give that up for anything at this point.
here are some progress pics taken through the weeks of my transformation.
