[QUOTE="ThomasBJJ, post: 1085264, member: 993"] I lost over 70 lbs in about 10 months. I ate whatever I wanted, but tried to not go overboard. I went to the gym 5-6 times a week and either rode the stationary bike, treadmil, or the "eliptical" crosstrainer for cardio exercise. I started out at about 6 minutes of riding (all I could do at the time) and had a goal of adding at least one minute per day to my time. Eventually I was going for not less than 45 minutes, and some days as long as 90 minutes. I would track my heart rate. Maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age. You want to warm up for 5-10 minutes, then exercise with your heart rate in the "Aerobic zone" of 70-85% of your maximum heart rate. That is the zone where you will lose the most weight. I also started VERY slowly lifting weights. I would go buy a "Muscle & Fitness" or "Men's Health" magazine and try the workout routines in there. I'd read the mag while I was on the bike. I cannot even begin to tell you the difference I felt once I lost about 25 lbs. I never realised that there was a sort of "fog" over my brain that made it near impossible to read or concentrate. I had terrible mood swings and depression. No energy. Would fall asleep driving. Bad sleep apnea. When the sleep apnea went away (about 25 - 30 lbs into my weight loss) I felt INCREDIBLE. I never knew what I was missing. I kept it off for about two years, but I got lazy and had my routine interrupted working out of town alot, and gained some back. I contemplated Adkins diet. I read the book and really liked what I learned from it. But... psychologically, I don know if I could stick to that diet for long. Especially when I know I can get where i want to be thru consistent exercise and eat whatever I want. Good luck.
