I started a fairly rigorous fasting schedule back in June 2020 and weighed in at 293 lbs. I’m now sitting at 179, so a loss of 114 lbs in just under 7 months.
For reference, I’m 5’9, 36 yrs old, did ZERO exercise during this time, have 2 small kids, PCOS, was fat for almost a decade. I’m still about 15-30 lbs from a possible goal weight, but I’ve got the urge to start kicking it up a notch in the exercise department to tone up the best I can. I am also continuing to fast of course, making no changes in the schedule thats worked for me.
Treadmill arrives this week and I’m planning on doing a couch25k program, but I’m struggling to figure out the rest of my program. I’m not super stoked about following IG and TikTok fitness accounts.
Anyone else in a similar position at some point in their journey? What routine did you pickup? Any subs I should be combing through?
Also super curious to hear from ladies who lost a large amount and are in maintenance. How are you doing with reshaping your bodies! Thanks!
Pilates and core strengthening plus weights. This will help more than the treadmill. Aerobic exercise is great for lungs and circulation in the body. But the others will really change your body composition in a wonderful way.
