I’m fat. I’ve been fat my whole life. I’m going to lose 120lbs this year. I lost 20lbs in Dec just by a minor modification in my diet. As my joint health permits, I will be lifting weights, walking/jogging, etc (I have gout and osteoarthritis). This isn’t my first rodeo, but this time I’m going to make it last. Nearly 5 years ago I did the same thing. I went almost 3 full years maintaining my lowest weight since 7th grade (~203lbs) before I went on some meds that caused rapid weight gain. Fast forward to now: As of the trailing end of Nov, I was ~322lbs which was almost the same exact weight I was 5 years ago on the day I started dieting. I started eating ever-so-slighty less in Dec and I made it down to ~302lbs. That’s where I am now. Anyone else working on their weight? I know I’m not the only hefty gentleman here… [![http://tickers.TickerFactory.com/ezt/t/whxG4v9/weight.png](http://tickers.TickerFactory.com/ezt/t/whxG4v9/weight.png)](http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/whxG4v9/) ^ I decided that I was going to be a Kenyan guy. ---

I dropped 80 (260-180 6’2") two summers ago and it was great. Really changes your life in some ways. I put back 25 of it and feel terrible about it. I’ve just started to make an effort again now that the holidays are over to get back in shape. Good luck to you man, I’m sure with the joint issues the weight drop would make a huge difference in quality of life for ya. ---

Im working on it but lately I seem to be replacing fat with muscle because I havent gotten bigger but the numbers on the scale have gone up about 10 pounds. I do feel stronger though. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/weight-reduction-human-edition/262266.md?page=2)
