194 to 164 in 4 months (April 1 to August 1)
Hello everyone, I started tracking calories in an effort to reach my goal of a healthy BMI. I've never had a doctors visit where I've been within a normal weight range. BMI isn't a perfect measuring system, but it's given me a goal to shoot for and it's been a big motivator in my journey into fitness.
I'm 5'9 and Starting April 1 I limited my calorie intake to 1600 regardless of exercise. This gave me enough to eat morning, noon, and night with a protein shake mixed in. My exercise regimen stayed consistent actually since the beginning of the year. Here's my typical week:
Monday: Weightlifting - Chest, and Run a 5k Tuesday: Weightlifting - Leg Wednesday: Run a 5k Thursday: Weightlifting - Shoulders Friday: Run a 5k Weekend: Weightlifting - Deadlift
It's fairly extreme for most but my life allowed me the time to do it all regularly. Now that I've hit my weightloss goal, I'm planning to bulk more and add muscle, increasing my calorie intake to 2300.
I couldn't do it without this subreddit! I read every post on here every day and it's a big motivator! Super proud of everyone! You guys are doing great!!
