minus-squaredixius99@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·edit-27 months agoI tried to do a bunch of small things. No single thing was the key. started drinking my coffee black drink more water, and drink water instead of other things I take the stairs instead of elevator/escalator whenever possible I try not to eat seconds at dinner “Real” exercise (like running, rowing, etc.) every other day, but if I can squeeze in extra ones, (e.g., 2 days in a row), I go for it If I’m not up for real exercise, I’ll go for a walk intermittent fasting in the mornings, so often no breakfast, but not necessarily every day No snacking after 19:00 At restaurants, if 2 options look good, go for the one with fewer calories There are probably more, but those are the kinds of habits we’re talking about. Also important: if you don’t stick to all habits, don’t beat yourself up about it. With the above, I was able to get from a high of 235 lbs down to around 180. I’m a bit more than that right now, but pretty close still.
