This was me as well. At my heaviest I was 165 lbs (I'm only 5'1"). I was so grossed out with how I looked that I decided I had to do something. All I did was count calories and do yoga for 10 minutes a day. 4 years later, I am down to 134 lbs, and I've never gone back up! Slow and steady wins the fitness race!!!

As someone who has been obese her whole life and even morbidly obese at one point, what finally worked for me was exactly the same methods you described here.<br><br>The only other finding I can share is - protein and fiber keep you satiated, sugar makes you hungry and wanting more. Whenever you struggle, focus on eating more protein and fiber and less sugar the next couple of days. It always helped curb my cravings ❤

As someone who lost 40+ kgs in less than a year. This video on mentality part is so true. I find it really weird that it was that much reletable.

I've never heard such unique advice! Focus on what I need to do to get my bodyfat down from 30% to 29% instead of how I can go from 30% to 20%. Wow I've never thought about it like that.. This information will for sure help me reach my goals, thank you!

This is the MOST HONEST video on YouTube! Thank you. Baby steps! There is no one size fits all, accountability is key and it's a LIFESTYLE, not a get fit quick scheme. Congrats on your weight loss and lifestyle changes.

I love your site. Ironically, the woman you featured who lost 50lbs in 3 months (Nicole Collett) gives advice similar to you. She was in the 280 range with her hubby and tried multiple diets, before making small sustainable changes to their diets.<br><br>She and her hubby initially lost 50lbs by switching from full sugar sodas to diet soda, decreasing their portion sizes etc and weighing their foods. Their weight loss slowed after the 1st 50lbs.<br><br> I know there are a lot of weight loss influencers that promote unsustainable weight loss, but the Collets are not among them. They also talk about the emotional side of weight loss/binge eating.<br><br>P.S. she lost her weight while dealing with PCOS and BED.

As a software engineer, the Kaizen method (make small incremental changes) and track progress (measure, adapt and repeat 🔁 the process) makes a lot of sense. <br><br>Applying the Pareto principle will also be of great benefit here. <br><br>Thanks for this various insights in this video. Will devise a plan for myself based on these insights. <br><br>Using my iWatch Fitness app will work a treat (pardon the pun) with this approach. 😎

I've also finally come to the realisation to do my own thing. And now it seems to work. <br>I've researched and read up on weight loss, tried diets for a while or restricted my food and nothing ever seemed to help. Now that I've ditched everything I've continuously and gradually lost weight over the past 3 months without feeling like I am forcing myself to do it a certain way. <br>Slow and steady, and with a diet and an exercise plan that I know I can do all my life. <br>I don't want to drop weight fast, I want to be healthy. And I'm still having pizza here or a burger there, don't feel like I can't snack.

I love it that you made a flow chart. That really speaks to my nerdy brain and is totally my language. Also props for being an engineer!!! Women in STEM is very important. My daughter wants to study astrophysics. She’s already enrolled in college for her upcoming senior year.

I lost nearly 80lbs years ago. Sodas and sweets were my over indulgence. Several days ago I tried to drink a Coke and found it so distasteful I spit it out. Even a cookie will make me nauseous. I once could eat a whole bag in one sitting!
