Question? For others that have lost weight?

FINALLY staying below 190! Lately been bouncing between 184 and 188. Bought a new gun a few days ago and was 186 and that's what I put on the paperwork. Sure felt good writing that number lol

Congrats man! It feels great doesn't it? I am seriously focusing on my Keto diet and watching what I eat and staying away from beer. Only time will tell I guess.

Sounds like a brand of pet food.

Haven't really changed my diet much except for not snacking late at night but have been exercising a lot more.....

Lol. Meat, meat, oh, and more meat. My kind of diet, but my blood sugar is way down and all my other bloodwork is rosey.

To update this posting from a few past replies that i made.
During April to October 2023, last year, i lost 50 pounds, starting at 230, and got down to 180.
And this year i even have lost a few more pounds.
Been staying right around the 175-177 range, now a days.
This is weight when i was a kid in my 20's, and in the Air Force.
Gotta renew my California drivers license in three more weeks, and that's the weight that will be but down on the license.
So pretty good for a 5' 11" 71 year old man.
Continue to walk 3 miles a day, each walk one mile, and on my bicycle i now can do a 15 miles round trip on the American River Trail without killing myself. lol
Exercising keeps the weight off.
Again, for me, walking, and the bicycle is my claim to fame for the weight loss.
For you folks that are on a weight loss schedule, you do have to exercise, whatever works for you, and eat a lot less, and sensibly.

first post here....but i still wanna share it....one thing I’ve found helpful in my own journey is incorporating a good source of protein into my diet.

I’ve been trying for 37 years to get my wife on a regular protein diet with very little success.

I’ve been trying for 37 years to get my wife on a regular protein diet with very little success.

My wife has fought weight gain her entire life, but has been stable for over 40 years with a balanced high protein, low carb diet, and exercise regimen similar to the OP. It's worked for her, because she actually enjoys what she eats. Bigger issue at age 71 is joint deterioration, making exercise more difficult. Multiple joint replacements have gone well, but there's always the next one waiting to happen.
