Glad to see this thread. I have my anovos armor on the way (my first time doing anything like this) and wanted to drop some weight before my build. Frankly, I've wanted to drop some weight for a while but I've been too lazy to get off my rear and do anything about it. I'm 35, 6' and was hovering around 250-255 lbs. At the beginning of the month I started walking. I hate running but I don't mind walking. I work at home most of the time at my desk, and its sad how little I used to move on any given day.
I bought a Xiaomi Mi band to track my steps and for the last month I've been walking at least 10,000 steps a day. I haven't changed what I eat too much. I already avoid eating out, junk food, coke, alcohol, potato chips and such. I have cut back a little on my portion sizes and plan to continue cutting back. As of last Thursday I hit 239 lbs. I feel much better already and can't wait to keep shedding the pounds. Goal weight is 190.
