6 months in....

[Jesse]

Eat a variety of healthy foods and exercise daily. There's no mythical scripture to live and die by. People who go on those yoyo diets or try to be gym rats for a month only hurt themselves in the long run. In order to be a healthy individual you have to change your lifestyle, not dinner choice.

 

Good for you Igo, keep up the good work.

I drink it black, it's just that I have other issues(born with them) that makes coffee not the best thing in the world for me. Black coffee is actually a great preworkout drink

And the best diuretic. Cleans me out.

Counting calories has one big issue, 1000 calories in vegetables, and 1000 calories in carbs are two different things entirely, your body will process them entirely different. I try to keep my total daily intake below 2000 atm and control my carbs.

Im tryin to do a 100% raw food for a while to detox. Can i eat a poo ton of veggies and fruit without worrying about calories?

Lift heavy and eat healthy. Try to eliminate red meat and not eat too much dairy. Key to success.

After careful consideration, I think I might actually be interested in a diet similar to yours.

The real reason I haven't tried yet is due to my stubborness. I love eating meat and greasy fried food. It tastes good, but makes me feel like poo afterwards. Always an experience. 

Lately, that "poo" feeling has lingered more than I feel it should. I work out and do limit my fried foods, but that doesn't seem to be helping my quality of life. I tried to limit how much meat I eat, but even that doesn't help. 

I know the facts. Plant based foods will prolong your quality of life and even lifespan. Research proves that.   For one, you can look at Loma Linda and see how their average lifespan is greater than that of most of the world due to their diet.

You can defend meat and fried food all you want, but facts are they're the main culprit for health issues and the only reason its defended is taste.

I would appreciate a DM sometime about how you diet, what you eat, and what you recommend I do. Any recipes, tips, and whatever you got would be greatly appreciated.

Congratulations on your journey so far Jeremy. I think you've also inspired me to finally do something I should've done years ago.

Thank you.

No need to DM.  Share with all of us.  I'm interested too.  Never thought I'd consider giving up meat, but facts are facts and it's time to acknowledge them.

Looking good! Im also there with you. I was at 215 to start the year and im almost at 180 right now. While we're on two different regiments, keep it up!

The most important thing to realize is health, fitness and diet is a lifestyle not a fad. It's not a crash course that you can do once for the test of your life. Once you realize the effect of what you put in your body has on your day to day life, it's hard to go back.

You have more energy and confidence, especially if working out at the same time.

I get this a lot. Working on a blog post that spells it all out for you. There are many ways to do it, I can only speak to what worked best for me.

Except this is 100% backed by science and has verifiable and quantifiable results.
