Great result! 👍🏻🌟 

I have actually lost 21kg all together since august 2019 

That’s excellent! Good on you! 

It is great to know how well my body react to some foods and what it needs and wants combined with exercising and muscle building program. Such a great journey to know myself 

I am heading down that same path - strength training and building muscle is a really prominent part of what I am trying to achieve, as I understand its relationship to metabolism. How did you go about it? Did you devise something yourself if did you follow a program?  

@jomo1903 I watched and read so much videos about how our body works and have experimented so many different ways in these 15+ months with my own body. I eventually just came up with my own program to do, everything is self taught (locked down periods in and out too)... from what I eat to how I workout actually. My program is only suitable to my own body as I know what it likes and what it doesn’t take well. Go follow Jeremy from “Work with Science”, “Greg Douchette” and “Dr Stan Ekberg”... these 3 are good, and no, I don’t do keto diet as I believe carbs are important... doing 16/8 - 18/6 myself and train fasted in the morning. 

I lost 23kg all up and have since gained 2kg worth of muscles while in deficit since June 2019 

Solid loss! Congrats.. and congrats on your amazing results over the last 18months 👏 Everything you are doing is working AND sounds sustainable so you keep doing you 😊 

well done 🥳 

I’m also binge watching videos- I’ve looked at Greg Douchette but not the other two. There’s such a lot on YouTube. I’ve devised my own program as well, based on the best info I can find plus long experience. A lot of what I’m doing is based on the Body for Life and Back to Fit programs created by Bill Phillips, because I’m old enough to be ‘old school’. 😂. You won’t find anything much about those on the internet, they’re so old, 1990s, but the books are still around, secondhand at a hefty Price. I can’t find my copy of body for life and it’s driving me crazy. Basically I’m on higher protein, less carbs and fats - but good ones! I eat mountains of veggies most days and depend on mainly high protein cottage cheese, WPI and pea protein powder for the bulk of my protein as I’m a vegetarian. I do weights workouts 6 days a week and and walk every day especially the essential half hour in the early morning.
