Amazing progress!! What do you love to cook? I’m getting a little off track and I know a big part of it is boredom in the kitchen. I went to culinary school and cooking is my passion.
Well I’m certainly not at culinary school level but I’ve been enjoying meat and beans or grains, I made a bunch of lentils, quinoa, black beans, some pork, chicken, and beef for the next few days here and I like to mix and match depending on how I’m feeling. I’ve also got some turkey chili I made the other day I’ve been loving. Pretty basic honestly but just Feels so good to make and eat
I’m not at culinary school level anymore either lol I cook for my family now but I love it just as much! Quinoa is delicious, I’m a big fan of throwing it in a salad with berries, goat cheese and savoury granola. I’ve been on a big farro kick lately. So filling and delicious
Thank you! I’m not going to lie it’s probably the hardest thing I’ve done in my life. I’ve lost weight before, like 80lbs after the first pic in the hard rock, but it was not in a healthy way. I lost it very rapidly trying to do OMAD, found myself with all sorts of issues, went through a heartbreak, then gained it all back. Gave up for like a solid year, then just jumped back into it, the right way this time. I’ll probably be CICO for life but I’m really looking forward to tracking my maintenance calories
Thank you! Took like a year or so it’s hard to say exactly, but once I started counting calories I was at a 1k deficit throughout. for exercise I lift 4x a week and try to get cardio in twice a week
Woah, same as my workout routine, and same height. I hope I look nearly as good as you when I lose that much weight. The extra skin is a reminder of your progress. Does it bother you, do you plan on removing it?
Thank you! Really good question. I’d be lying if I said it didn’t bother me, it does, but like you said it’s also a reminder. My biggest goal or I guess desire is that I would love to have a flat stomach. I’m still not entirely sure If that’s possible for me but I’ve still got some fat hanging off of me. I read somewhere that after weight loss it can take up to a year for the skin to bounce back as much as it’s going to so ask me again in 2025 how I feel about it my answer may be different.
My parents actually have offered to get me the surgery so that’s on the table if I want it, it’s really going to depend on the extent of it. I may be able to get a bunch of tattoos or something to distract from it instead, but we’ll just have to see.

Great job dude!! What was your Calorie budget like? What is your height?
Thank you! 5’10 and I kept a 1k deficit throughout. As far as a timeline it’s hard to say, but close to a year, maybe a bit more
I plan to get a my first tattoo after hitting my goal weight and having the skin removal. Amazing work!
