A lot of the get fit in 60-90 days fitness programs that sell on TV are based on these types of workouts. I was a fatass my whole life until 1.5 years ago I decided to lose weight and get in shape. I followed the slow carb diet and now try to recommend it every time I get the chance. I exercise daily, but without the diet aspect I dont think my body would have changed at all.
The supplement and weight loss industry has made in very difficult for people to achieve results. I lost 50 pounds fat and put on 20 pounds of muscle with zero supplements, not even a protein shake, just lots of good nutrition, patience, and little understanding that my body might change.
- nlh 13y agoCongrats! It's a huge sense of accomplishment, no? I did a similar thing around the same time ago -- started eating better (out with the Frosted Mini Wheats for breakfast, in with the Greek Yogurt), started running, and lost 30 lbs in about 6 months. No supplements either. Best life improvement I've ever made.
- rickdale 13y agoThanks and congrats to you too. I have found a lot of people that are into fitness on hn. Taken a few tips here and there. The no supplements thing was something I was just determined to do. In my mind, I ate to get fat, and now I needed to eat to get fit. That perspective helped me out a lot. I wanted to mention that I achieved my results so far without a gym membership. I did put together a small @ home gym, but its not the same as a gym. Just been able to really stay motivated.
