do not drink this soda, or do I'm not your supervisor. Just know I warned you.
HarleyUltraRider70
Is it a soda? I always thought it was carbonated black pepper.
lpooptoomuch
more like carbonated black licorice
FlyingMonkeyButt
Your arms are doing really well. Mine went all sloppy. Keep it up. I’m proud of you internet stranger
ketosaurus
Oh man - if I wiggle mine around fast enough I may take flight lol! But I’m proud of my wings!! Congrats on your progress as well.
barny109
try inclined press ups. its a great way to ease yourself into full press ups plus it firms up the bingo wing's, worked wonders for me.
ketosaurus
I do push up progressions twice a week!! That’s a big goal of mine - full push-up!
barny109
you WILL! get there. it takes time but you can do this. to anyone seeing this. YOU CAN DO THIS! never stop trying.
Mekanik101
Looks like a lot of work paying off. Put on some muscle under that skin. Build booty, with backwards cycling and elliptical.
Mekanik101
Also squats. Do a circuit of pushups, sit ups, squats, and flutter kicks. Do it 3 times. The triceps will tighten your arms, better.
ketosaurus
I do heavy lifting push/pull routines at the gym, 2 upper body focused, 2 lower body focused. I’m all about the heavy squats and dead’s...
ketosaurus
I do all “heavy” sets to fatigue. If I can go past 8 reps, I increase load for the following set. If I can’t do more than 4 reps, I deload
ketosaurus
Lower A: Heavy Deadlift, light squat, Single hip hinge, leg press calf raise, Bulgarian split squat
ketosaurus
Lower B: heavy squat, light deadlift, back extension, standard split squat, calf raises, hip thrust
ketosaurus
Upper A: bar bench, db row, shoulder press, tricep pull, raises, curls Upper B: pull up progressions, db bench, bar row, lat pull, inc press

Good job...

Why the ellipsis?
Glitchoff
So that's what it's called...
Soberyn
I listened to something on the radio about how the "..." comes across as passive aggressive to younger generations and it is the older >
Soberyn
Soberyn
idea it reads weirdly. Even when she uses the "..." I feel all irked even though I know she didn't send it on her end with that intention.
AlpacaScreampilot
I wanted to add to it, but figured I said enough.
Glitchoff
I know what you mean....
my2micmacs
I'm so proud of you! Not only for working hard to lose the weight, but u having the guts to show the real u to the internet. I lost 225lb.--
ketosaurus

Gnorknik
Out of curiosity, how tall are you?
ketosaurus
5’4”
ketosaurus
Well - 5’3.75”
Cilvaa
162cm for us metric users
ketosaurus
FREEDOM UNITS ONLY K. Just kidding. I’m a geophysicist. Being on the SI units plz
Gnorknik
Ok. Thanks. I’m 5’7” (and lost a bunch of weight), but have a hard time figuring out what taller and shorter people weigh.
ketosaurus
Oh man yea - it’s a crap shoot. I’m bottom heavy - so my top is disproportionately small compared to the bottom
JWS1988
You might be the only person to lose weight during lockdown.
SerenePrincess013
I've lost ~115lbs since lockdown started. Jus haven't really been keeping track of it, bc I didn't know we were supposed to.??♀️
PrincessNakedMoleRat
I went vegetarian in December, I'm down 8 pounds. Haven't even started exercising.
leechdemon
Lost 10 pounds overworking and smoking weed all day. Once you get used to having access to snacks 24/7, you lose the FOMO on calories.
BonkyMcSignFace
I’ve lost about 20kg of semen
comette
I lost at least 15ish I think
IssacOppenheimer
I'm sure Herman Cain weighs less now than when lockdown started.
...Srly tho congrats on getting healthy OP.
UsedCarSalesChick
Good news! I found it. ?
AShartInTheWind
I lost 65lbs any my wife lost nearly 40.
ketosaurus
Good job!
OKiluvUBuhBai
Daaaaamn good job!
AlohomoraButterbeer
Down about 15 from a year ago
OKiluvUBuhBai
Yeah I lost 10... then my bf broke up w me and I gained 15. Womp womp.
legendcommathe
I lost 20 then gained 25. I don’t even have a good excuse. Womp womp.
CammieCakes
I've upped my workouts during quarantine with the extra time.
Beebebluff
Same. I lost 115lbs between 2016-2019 but gained 30 back during lockdown. I really miss weight lifting.
Undercovermango
95 lbs here. 63 lbs documented in my posts.
binaryspike
I'm down a buckle loop from pre-covid—went up 2 and back down 3.
LandManatee
Not quite as extreme for me, but the length of the lockdown has resulted in me coming back around to losing overall. I can deal with that.
DrWaluigi
Good job buddy! I just got a smaller belt this week
iShouldProbablyGetBackToWork
You ain’t lying I gained 20 pounds during lockdown smh
ThunderSquidThursday
Working off my Covid-19 pounds too. My main problem is I'm a boredom eater. Started eating sunflower seeds and chewing gum helps with that.
ThunderSquidThursday
Im not eating the chewing gum just...chewing it. Dang, I messed that sentence up!
KiltedinSeattle
Whatever you’ve been doing is working! Keep going & change it up if you hit a plateau. I don’t know if it matters, but I’m proud of you!
Trixie19310
How do I get you to be proud of me?
KiltedinSeattle
Check your Ryan Reynolds comment.
Trixie19310
You're cool. Feels good to make someone proud.
MaraHyena
what if it's coke
ketosaurus
No no soft drinks at all (lolz).
KiltedinSeattle
Then if you plateau switch to meth!
ketosaurus
If my teeth fall out I can’t chew anything anyway
KiltedinSeattle
LOL!!
ketosaurus
Thanks! I’ve hit multiple plateaus - change it up is the best advice. If I’m stuck for a week or so, I up my carbs for a day. Then Whoosh!
goliathonline
This is such a hard thing to do, a lot of times because ppl dont know how to approach it well. Kudos to ur strength and perspicacity!
crabbyoldmankittytellsyouboringstories
Your post was the sign I asked for, believe it or not. You look amazing @OP!!
ketosaurus
AWW yay! Get them gains (and losses!)
Myballzzich
What diet plan have you followed?
ketosaurus
I also don’t eat after 8pm (I was developing GERD). And Zero alcohol period ever.
ketosaurus
Carbs 25% Protein 40% Fat 35%. When I stall, I track everything and see if I’m doing as well as I think am nutrition wise.
aradurthaneofwhiterun
.
ketosaurus
I follow a macro based plan. Protein is a priority. The carbs I take in are from fruits and vegetables and minimal whole grains.
ketosaurus
I will then up my calories and swap my fat and carb macro percentages for a few weeks. I lift heavy and I need to give my body enough fuel.
ketosaurus
Normally doing this breaks the stall immediately, but if it doesn’t, I hang there for a few weeks until the numbers start moving again
GiddyKipper
Up your carbs ?
ketosaurus
I burn anywhere from 500-900 lifting. I need the carbs to fuel my activity. If I don’t provide enough, my body is like AH WE ARE STARVED
awesalots
Omg yes! And then it hangs onto weight like crazy
ketosaurus
YES. Also - menstruating humans retain water due to cycle related hormonal variations - so I have 7-10 days where my weight is high.
ketosaurus
But then my hormones behave and I drop the excess plus some. It’s like clockwork. Up 5 lbs, down 7lbs every 4 weeks lol
bluejitzu127001
Really?? Thanks, I just lost 20lbs and got stuck and gave up.. thanks for that advice I'm back now cuzza u..
dogedogegiraffedoge
<3 you got this
texasfoodman
A cheat day once a week full of stacks of pancakes works for me.
Howlatthemoons
I've always said the best diet for you is the one you can stick to. Even if that's 6 days a week of clean eating and one day of pancakes.
texasfoodman
Kodiak cakes are the best for it.
ketosaurus
Also remember that sometimes it takes a while for your body to “realize” you’ve changed something. Be patient - stalls can Last a while
bumblebeezzz
I keep hitting plateaus :( What do you mean by upping carbs for the day? Any help would be appreciated! You’re looking fab!!
bumblebeezzz
Oh I just read your other comment threads! Amazing, I’ll try to shake it up a bit and add in weights :)
Lamorphe
Lost 30 lbs and still going... ok ... I've been sick AF but weight loss is still weight loss?
KiltedinSeattle
I feel you. I had a bout of rhabdomyolysis and have dropped 15 pounds. I’m hoping to keep it off now that I’m healed up.
Lamorphe
01. I gained a lot of weight the first 3 months of confinement, lots of emotionaleatin. So when I got sick this summer, I was at my heaviest
Lamorphe
02. Emotional eating*. GOt sick in August and quickly dropped 15 lbs. It's been a motivator since and now I've lost over double! Keep it up!
KiltedinSeattle
The Covid-19 pounds is a real thing for a lot of people. I’m hoping to drop 10 more pounds in the next 2 months. Slow & steady changes.
UnusuallyDank
I have the meundies bike print too, represent lol.
ComicPi
Lol bike shorts
sordatos
The what?
MrBismarck
The underwear with bike pictures on it.
ketosaurus
Im so bummed those don’t really fit anymore - I love the print lol
pandagrrl
They are super cute!! and great job on the weight loss
UnusuallyDank
I think I own every fit meundies has, I just happened to get that print in one if my favorites. I try and wear it as much as possible xD
ketosaurus
My favorite prints are the s’mores and the cameras!!
UnusuallyDank
The bikes and a few of the winter prints are mine. The little mooses and trees one might be my favorite.
MegPintDear
The prints are awesome, but let’s talk about the fit and the quality. Are they worth it?
UnusuallyDank
Quality is awesome, very comfortable. They have quite a few fits on both sides male/female and I've tried most of them. I'd recommend them.
