| AWESOME effort Justin Angel !!! :D It is great to see someone achieve their weight loss goals. Yes it is that “SIMPLE” and I know it can be done, as I too did it myself. I too had a massive weight loss goal (90 lbs / 40kg) and achieved it with the same basic principals, but in a slightly longer time frame (9 months / 40 weeks). I wrote a book about it (My Weight Loss Story: 40kg in 40 Weeks Without Exercise (90lbs in 9 months), instead of a medium post. ;) I personally (Richard Boegli) lost 40 kg in 40 weeks (90lb in 9 months) WITHOUT exercise. [90lb in 9 months (no exercise)]. I’m not trying to hijack your story! I would just like to provide another data point, that the basic principals do work. As I have found their can be a lot of scepticism, even though the math works! Justin Angel: How I lost 100lbs in 6 months [100lb / 6 months (with exercise)] I could do a line for line comparison, but these are the points that immediately came to mind as I read the article:
Richard Boegli: [90lb in 9 months (no exercise)]: “Just Eat Less”, its in the preface of the book :) Justin Angel [100lb / 6 months (with exercise)]: "Calories In — Calories Out = Weight Change" Richard Boegli [90lb in 9 months (no exercise)]:: “I reduced my food intake” Justin Angel [100lb / 6 months (with exercise)]: “I reduced my daily caloric intake” Richard Boegli [90lb in 9 months (no exercise)]: “I lost on average 1kg (2.2lbs) a week, every week for 40 weeks WITHOUT exercise Justin Angel [100lb / 6 months (with exercise)]: “I would experience a 3lbs a week weight lose.” I chose to do it WITHOUT exercise, as my theory was that I would keep it off longer, if it wasn’t dependent on exercise. Every other time I lost weight in my life, it was a combination of diet and exercise. When the exercised stop, the weight would creep back up, as I was still eating too much. http://40in40book.com EDIT: Cleaned it up a bit. |
