Well, I'm a 27y male, my max weight was 280 lbs (2005) and managed to get to 182 in about a year and a half(2006)by basically starving and exercising a lot.
Work got very hard and demanding and I couldn't go to the gym anymore, there wasn't time, I started to gain weight again little by little and decided to act fast before it was too late, I've managed to keep it steady on 200-210 weight for about a year now.
I weight 206 lb right now and I want to go back to 180.
I've read SBD Book and firmly belive its concepts.
I find this site to be very cool and helpful, now I can focus on eating more healthy things and balance my intake.
Feel free to add me as a buddy, I'll be as much of assistance as I can. Thanks

I love your attitude and you will succeed for sure. You have set your goal and seem focused on what you want. You are young and believe it our not what you are doing for your body now will pay off big time as you get older. Take good care of yourself your worth it.

Hey, we're at almost exactly the same weight and our goals are the same Smile

Somehow, I'm going to guess you'll get there before me. Men always seem to lose weight faster than women... you jerks! LOL.

Are you going back to the gym?

Thanks for the encouragment BCLenny, I hope to keep on track and have sufficent will power to do so.
You also take care, and keep up the spirit!

K8yk, Yes, I work at a different company now, and have sufficient free time, so I resumed the Gym and my focus on weight loss, at least for now…it might get more demanding in the future, but I’ll continue while I can, and definitely adapt my current eating habits as permanent.
We’ll both reach our goals, you’ll see, we both have determination, and have our minds in the game 100%. Take care.

My job is super demanding. But I made a commitment to work out for at least one hour 5 days a week and I will not break it. I think there's something to be said for making time for yourself. There's no amount of money that is worth losing your health and a job should not require 100% of your time Smile Sometimes you just have to put your foot down and demand your time. That is what I had to do. Some people do not appreciate it, but I'm not devoting my entire life to a job that I'm sure would drop me in a heartbeat if that was the whim of the shareholders.

Jobs will take from you what you will give. If you refuse to give it, they can't take it.

Yes, that's definitely true; I will not be giving up my work-outs, that’s for sure.
Thanks for the encouragement.
