Nice drop. 

Congrats! 

Wow.... That's awesome! What have you been doing, in summary, to consistently drop a pound per day? 

Good job! 

Thanks, everybody! Gacastillo, I'm actually dropping a pound every few days, not every day. Briefly, I was on my favorite diet, LCHF, for quite a while, but I had gone off the rails and gained some weight. Two months ago, I ended up with some GI problems, mostly dealing with reflux... and kind of serious. So it was a life-changer. Had to lose weight and had to change my diet. I was nervous, because the suggested changes brought in more carbs, but it's been great. I average around 1800 calories a day, roughly 50-60 percent fat, the rest split between carbs and protein, with an average fiber intake in the mid-to-upper 40's. I walk the dog most days, play some ping pong... and the weight is just melting away. A big key, I think, is that I eliminated a bunch of stuff, like dairy, which I seem to be allergic to, and most sugar, and I cut back on meat. I also stop eating 3-4 hours before bed (I used to graze all the way to the pillow). And I've added a probiotic pill and fermented foods, which seems to have made my gut healthier. I'm honestly losing more weight than I "should" based on personal history, and I think it's because my gut is doing a better job handling food.  

Fantastic growth. Getting stronger in your resolve to be healthier is it's own reward. Keep at it and keep posting your experiences. It's good for all of us to see progress.  

Loki, you are doing absolutely fantastic!!! Sometimes it is the doctor that slaps the ruler across our knuckles that is what makes us finally straighten up. I know mine did, and thank goodness for that! 

Awesome! Thanks for the update and simply sharing. Keep up the consistent success! 

Fantastic that your recent changes have worked so well for you! 

Very nice John :-) 

Superb!  

Thanks for sharing your story. It is really good to be reminded that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to weight loss. Glad to hear you are feeling good and getting great results 😊 

Thanks, everyone! And thanks for always being so supportive. Another big part of things going my way is your constant support and encouragement, and Steven Lloyd has been incredibly helpful with pep talks.  

Just returning the favor mate!! 

Nice loss there! Congrats!
