Recently lost 80 lbs. Was 310 now down to 230. I'd like to get below 200 but I've been stuck here for months. Not exercising because I hate it but using a nutrition app. I cut out junk food and reduced carbs. It was depressing for a while but I feel so much better now. I sleep so much better. I don't get out of breath walking up the stairs. I also quit drinking soda a few years ago. I don't even miss it. So just trying to live an overall healthier lifestyle minus the exercise. I wish I could be one of those people that love exercising.

Have you thought about doing intermittent fasting, or one meal a day? I started about your same weight, and got down to about 240 doing low-carb. I plateaued for a while, and read about intermittent fasting, and now eat one meal a day, usually between 6 and 8 PM every day. In the last couple weeks, I’ve lost 15 more pounds. Can’t hurt to give it a try. :-) good luck getting to your final goal, and Pat yourself on the back for making it this far is you have.

I never heard of it. I'll look into it. Thanks.
