Did you not drink enough water or something during the 3 months? That seems really odd.

Actually, there's the semi-whacky but not entirely baseless theory that you have a decently specific number of heartbeats, meaning that if you exercise consistently you'll live longer, and if you don't at all, you'll live longer.
Edit: Stress and environmental factors are bigger though, and have scientific basis...
There was a study that showed that people who are active throughout their life remain active even in old age, and those with sedentary activities become bedridden, etc.

I don't know, there are too many different things that could have happened: maybe the bathroom scale I used at the end of it was too different from the one at the beginning. I didn't have much muscle to begin with (I'm a typical rail thin nerd) and maybe I built some (muscle = weight). My diet certainly changed because we had no refrigeration so I had fewer veggies and more starches and salty meats, maybe that did something. After I got there I actually tightened my belt a bit and I know at least one of my coworkers visibly lost a ton of chubbiness. Honestly I'm baffled.

Cardio doesn't actually burn that much fat
Lifting burns fat
Do you even lift bro?
So I read the stronglifts book-- well, a good chunk of it anyways. I'll give the routine a try-- I'll admit I'm one of those guys who hates squats and is kind of scared of deadlifts.

If lifting weights is what you are doing, squats are probably the most important part of your work out unless you do a large variety of different leg exercises that would cover it. Don't be scared though squats look a lot worse than what they a actually are. Just practice with a light wooden pole to get use to the movement and flexibility of the routine. (If you don't want to do this in a gym because you think people might judge you for not actually using weights, it can be done at home.) Next, just start with no weight on the bar, proper form with squatting is thee single most important routine to have down pat (second is deadlifts.)
The most important gym rule I follow all jokes aside (but still bicep curls everyday) is leaving the ego at the door. I still have lots of friends who tend to change up their lift amounts to stay on pace and or best people that are there just to prove something. DON'T! Who cares if you squat 100 or 400. It's all the same because you are there for personal gain.

#1 Gym Rule is leave the denim in the locker room.

First day back. Did a cardio and light weight chest workout followed by skipping to finish off the day. Three months away from the gym, this is going to be a long road but it definitely needed. Weighed in at 229, hoping to get back down to 205-210. (6'1 height)
@clutz and shiny affliction shirts? But yes, no denim please

Is this a joke? I don't really see how this is possible if you compare a proper pull-up to a proper sit-up

Deadlifts are pretty safe unless you start at way to high of a weight and break your back.
Clean & jerk on the other hand...

To follow up on this.
Please, don't do cleans for your first time unless you are with someone capable of teaching you the proper method, that routine can get you in serious trouble if bad habits forms.

Ass sore as a mf from monday squats. Funny walk like a baws.
Sitting down on the toilet with squat doms is the purest form of pain.

I did starting strength with a lot of success however I would stay away from the low bar back squat looking back on it. It enables you to lift more weight (awesome) however it is much easier to compromise form (see the squat good morning movement). Having elbow under the bar allow for a more organized back and the chest up queue is much more helpful.

Cardio DOES burn fat, but only if you work out 3 or more hours after you last ate so that you don't have access to tons of glucose in your blood. The best time is before breakfast in the morning as that's the longest since you last ate. With no glucose your body is forced to turn your fat into glucose. Turning fat into glucose is a specific chemical pathway that is actually "trainable", that is, your body's response will be faster and greater as you train in this way than when you started out. However, sometimes it's hard to get yourself to run with no food in your stomach since you can really notice the difference in your energy.
