So, I've tried many times to lose weight, diet, ect. Usually I loose 10lbs and bounce back. Never going all way with my efforts.
So in June I saw a photo of myself at party and though that was enough. My blood pressure was slowly creeping up and my doc said if I didn't show progress in lowering it the next time I come in, I'm on blood pressure meds.
So I did everything. I cut the surgery coffee drinks and fastfood and Looked up a video on meal prepping, now I do that for 90% of my meals. I do indoor interval cycling on my ON days (M,W,F) along with weights (picked a 3 day dumbbell full body routine on a fitness sight). On off days (T,Th) I do just a light ride on the bike trainer and try to do planks every day. Along with that I'm tracking everything. Measurements of my body, weight, blood pressure every Monday morning into a spreadsheet. I was tracking food but I don't need to with prepped meals.
So in June I was 288, and this morning I weighed 254.5. I've got still at least 55lbs till I'm happy and then I hope to see definition. My blood pressure went from 139/100 to now 118/70 and my clothing is now super baggy (I keep the same belt and keep adding holes as motivation).
The thing I'm most happy about. Tonight was the first time since high school that I was able to do 20 correct pushups without any issue. Last time I was able to do them was in football.
I think I'll go do more push-ups.
