Good job! There's always gonna be a time where we get knocked off a diet or exercise (like getting sick!) and lose some of that progress, but the most important part is just to stick to it.

Keep it up!
Oh, the usual. I bowl. Drive around. The occasional acid flashback.

You seriously are the greatest human being alive. After your first blog post I've started dieting and exercise a little more. Down to 232 from 240. Keep it up man! And thanks for the inspiration!

Just understand that the true diet is not about eating a lot less (starving is NEVER the right answer, cause u still want to be somewhat happy with what u eat even tho u can't eat sweets and stuff like u used to), it's about eating enough and healthy, this will drop a ton of weight by itself, while exercise just makes the weight dropping way faster, cause it speeds up ur metabolism. Also if u had problems with ur knee after a few weeks, try streetching more often, even between exercise, strech ur knees even if u don't feel like it (while streching before and after is a must!). Also really don't push yourself too much with sports, do it as long as u are having fun, cause having fun is a big part of having enogh will to keep doing it. A diet that u will enjoy and exercise that u will enjoy will bring u so much more results if you ever did anything u really disliked. And yes, losing weight is not always what shows progress, cause if u do sports, u are also gaining muscle and in first weeks, you also lose a lot of water really fast and u lose more weight, than u will lose in the coming weeks, but as long as u are dropping every week, you are on the right track! Again i wish you the best of luck and keep it up!

Awesome man. Keep it up!

I went from 215 to 155 over about 8 months on a Paleo diet and walking (and ate fucking tons of bacon and steak!). So it worked for me and it looks like its working for you too.

GOGO!
To say that I'm missing the point, you would first have to show that such work can have a point.

Hello Sheth,
reading your blog helps me carrying on my work out program on a more regular basis again (and eat healthier). I always wanted to speed up my running so i started an interval training some weeks ago (~15min 75 seconds sprints with 45 seconds of walking inbetween besides my normal cardio training). I was able to speed up from 8,7 km/h to 9,5 km/h (5,4 to 5,9 mph) on my normal runs. It might not sound much, but for me it is because I always had problems with my musculature (probably also because of my lack of follow through) and couldn't improve much in that regard in the past years. It feels absolutely amazing when you can feel the progress you are doing. It's one of the best feelings of the world if you ask me.

I hope you can keep up your good work and stay focused, but also listen to your body and allow yourself time for breaks if you feel the need to. Good Luck.

Great job, Sheth! Remember to always look at the big picture and not get hung up on day to day or week to week gains or losses. As long as your on a downward trend, the individual data points are really just reality checks and not total success or failure.

You might have already heard this, but I really like using a website called supercook.com for recipes because you can put in the ingredients in your kitchen (right down to spices and basics like flour) and it'll give you a list of stuff you can cook with what you have. Grass-fed all natural ingredients are pretty expensive, especially meat, so it's a good way to make sure that you actually get $200 (or more!) worth of food out of $200 worth of groceries. Shopping recipe to recipe usually gets expensive and you wind up with stuff you only used once. As long as all of your ingredients meet the criteria of your diet, a website like that will help you use EVERYTHING efficiently and save some money.

One step back often gives you the perspective you need to take two steps forward. Good work.

Good to hear from you Sheth, loosing weight is never an easy thing to do, and has its ups and down so keep at it mate!

You inspired me, so I'm going back to Karate training next week, so thanks for that
For years, I clung to the memory of it. Then the memory of the memory

That's cool but I don't really buy diets... it's pretty simple, eat at a calorie deficit and your weight goes down. I.E: Have a nice breakfast. Have a nice dinner. Skip shit inbetween and you should be fine.

I'm really happy for you about your life decisions. I have struggled with weight loss for a long time. If you want to lose weight, at the end of the day calories in have to be lower than calories out. There is a difference between losing weight, and being healthy.

For me losing weight is really difficult. In the end I ended up cutting calories a lot(which wasn't the healthiest!!), but once I got to my goal weight, it made it much easier to be healthy. My advice would be to just to focus on calories for a while. Once you have lost a bunch of weight you can worry about getting the right macro and micro nutrients, etc.

Of course who am I to say anything? Your career depends on your mind(more or less), and eating unhealthy will make you more sluggish. That is something to consider if you take my advice.

Feeling discouraged fuels the flame of fear, facilitating fumbling footholds. Fear not, for found in your midst are friends, lending fortitude to your frame and solace to your soul.
if I had to describe his playstyle, it'd be a coked up rabbit with the attention of a goldfish injecting caffeine into himself directly through an IV drip. it's like a reel of random animated shorts where things just blow up randomly

Have you considered using the elliptical as opposed to sprinting?
Sprinting is a lot harder on your joints which can be a problem for heavier people.
Elliptical provides a relatively similar exercise that is much lower in impact which is probably easier on your knees

Regardless, good luck on your diet!

Nice, man! Keep up. Make yourself photos, you don't have to publish them, but it's gonna be motivating when you finally SEE the results, not only the difference in weight.
