My weight loss log

[Felon]

I'm fat, current weight 105KG.

Used to be 80-82KG, 5ft 10, quite strong - history of sport (used to be a competitive swimmer, and have done lots of aerobics and sports training)
Gained 20-30KG during covid, partially due to depression, over-eating and poor self control (anti-depressants really put the weight on), thankfully I fixed the depression at the end of covid, so I'm not on any medication for 2 years now.

Motivation and activity have never been a problem for me, I've always done sports and outdoor activities and I enjoy gym classes - I just eat like a pig.

My exercise regime is as follows:

Mondays, - 45 min lunchtime walk, then Les Mills Grit in the evening
Tuesday, 45 min lunchtime walk, evening circuit training for 1 hour
Wednesday, 45 min lunchtime walk,
Thursday, 45 min lunchtime walk, Les Mills body step in the evening
Friday, 45 min lunchtime walk,
Saturday, Les Mills body step in the morning, 45 min lunchtime walk,

Eating wise, today I'm starting 20:4 fasting, so I eat from 0900-1300, then fast until the next day, target calorie intake is 1800.

Starting point is 105KG, I will weigh myself each Monday morning and post the results in here, along with general notes to help track my progress

2 days into fasting, feel surprisingly good.

I did my gym classes on Monday and last night, 1 hour circuit class last night was brutal, but fun.

Going 20 hours without eating anything so far is surprisingly easy, I have my main meal around 1pm - then that's it until 9am the next day, evenings are the worst especially after the gym, drinking plenty seems to help a lot.

Weighed myself after 2 days, not surprised to see I've dropped down from 105KG to 103.5KG, and I imagine that's mostly water - which is fine.

I had a main meal today for lunch and today is my rest day from the gym, although I did do my walk at lunch.

So far so good, it's going to be difficult with Christmas coming up - but I'm going to stick with it.

Good luck man. Im 6ft 3, was 105kg at the beginning of Jan 24. I'm 85kg now. Mostly did peloton a few times a week and started about 6 weeks ago doing weight training.

Seems you've got a good routine going and the right mindset!
