I've been on a diet/exercise plan for the last several months since I started seriously contemplating divorce. I decided to start tracking my progress here as well as other places.
I was 260 when I started and was embarrassed about my weight. Over the last 3 months, I've worked my way up from 8 miles/day on the bike to 22-25 miles per day 5-6 days a week, burning at least 1000 calories each session. The weight loss has accelerated as a result and I'm now 5'8 220. My initial goal was 165, but a lot of people have convinced me on my frame 180 may be a better goal. Anyway, I'm about halfway there and feeling much healthier and better about my appearance.
Edit to add: Other than exercise, I'm just limiting calories. 1200 or less per day is my goal. Most days I hit that goal.
