My Weight Loss Journey

[KahrMan]

You are looking good Rob. Clothes do get expensive. I have gone from 5xl to 2xl and xl in shirts and in pants from 48 to 38. I have spent more on clothes in the last 10 months than I have in the last 2 years.

I know from experience how much better (and colder) you feel! 

I did the same thing with compounded semaglutide at my doctor's recommendation (no insurance) & dropped from 285 to 205, 44" waist to 34.

I'm sure your doc already told you, but before you reduce your dosage, start making a food journal. Literally write down every single thing you eat. As you come down, refer back to your journal & treat it like a recipe book. It's really, really easy to add an extra ounce or two of food, here & there without even realizing. 

Stay strong Bill! The effort is absolutely worth it! 

It does get kinda spendy buying new clothes though, doesn't it?!

That's fantastic! Might be time to start into some exercising. I'll bet you'll be surprised by how strong you are. You can't be a weakling carrying nearly 400lbs around all day. 

Once I started losing the weight I started walking in the neighborhood. Before it got cold I would walk 3 miles 2-3 times a week. I just get to cold to walk now in the evenings. Need to start going back to Planet Fitness to walk.

When I saw the hunting pics I thought, man Bill has really done a ton of work. 

You look awesome. You must feel great.

Rob, if I saw you out in public, I’d think, “man, that looks like a skinny version of Rob.”

Nice work!

Get a couple pairs of dumbells and do some basic barbell exercises.  Simple body weight exercises can go a long way to building muscle tone.

I’m glad you posted this. Otherwise, next time we crossed paths, I might not have recognized you.
