Nice time to post given the above posts. I remembered your comment!

Dropped the 5kgs, without suffering too ~ 3.5 weeks. No diet, no hunger pangs either!

Did 6 months dieting and 5 days a week gym.

Put it all back on in the 3 weeks I had to have off from an injury. (The whole 1.5 kgs I'd managed to shed )

The best approach is ongoing healthy eating & regular exercise.

I have never been on a diet, but love cooking & eating. Don't touch fast food rubbish.

Haven't been to the gym since I was a student... but I walk heaps every day. Having 6 dogs helps!

My weight has hardly changed in 30 years, except 10 years ago I put on about 5 kg, which I was glad about as healthy weight.

Having said that I have been blessed with a good meatobolsm.

Im so sorry to hear that.

This year I had to deal with a few personal issues, at one stage I was ordering UberEats 3x a day and no exercise whatsoever. o_O

I was actually fine for a few weeks, in terms of weight. I was literally smashing pizzas and ice cream too.

But I turned come the 4th week. :$ I put on weight, however instead of losing it, I hit the gym focusing on building muscle for a few months.

When I restored my strength and gained muscle, I started the slow grind of losing weight. Then about ~4weeks, I went hard and lost 5kgs.

I dont think the Mods will mind me saying this, but there is actual legal prescribed drugs you can take that will help you lose weight dramatically.

Given where you work.

Are you not literally blown away by the amount of fast food in the area.

Have you ever witnessed the panic line ups at Maccas, HJ etc etc from around 6pm onwards. It explains a lot.

Here is an article to put everyone off ALL fast food. Its disturbing. Warning required here.

Subway worker WALKS through food and puts food on bathroom floor

Subway worker Jumanne posted a series of videos vandalizing a Subway restaurant in Providence, Rhode Island, where he dumped food onto the floor. He even put ingredients on the toilet.

I think the prescription referred to is Duramine. It’s basically a speed derivative so the Doc only lets people go on it for three months. My Bro and Sis in law went on it but didn’t really lose much weight. I think their habit was the issue, not the hunger.

years ago my partner came home from the doctors with a duramine script because she was worried about weight - she didn't know what it was, the dr prescribed it

took it a couple of times and she was just 'this is just ****ing speed' and stopped it pretty quick

otherwise heaps of people use it for study cramming

it's actually bonkers that it's prescribed but speed is illegal
 
Losing weight is not complicated.

- Drink a lot of water
- Don’t eat sugar when you can avoid it (that means no soft drink, chocolate, cakes etc or only very occasionally)
- Eat home cooked meals.
- Don’t snack on junk. If you get peckish between meals. Eat a couple handfuls of raw almonds and stfu.
- Walk at least 3 times a week for 30 minutes and walk briskly.

It really is that simple.

Used to be the go to drug for wasting for a couple of jockey mates I had back in the 70/80's

yes can agree with this, I lost like 6 or 7 kgs in a few months just by not consuming soft drinks, drinking lots of water, eatiNg home cooked meals and lifting weights at the gym 2-3 times a week but then covid happened and I put it all back on again, but trying to change my diet again, imo soft drinks are very bad for your gut and I’m trying to cut it completely right now.

I've lost 16kgs so far this year mostly by dropping the junk food and take out from my diet.

For me, don’t eat after 6.00pm if possible.

Sounds horrible 😆
 
The truest and most effective method is cardio. Increasingly intensive cardio. Get the heart rate right up for as long as you can manage. Lowers your blood pressure too.

If all you can do is walk, then walk, but don't keep walking, move on to jogging, running, sprinting, run for 2 hours, run for 4 hours, do an Ultra marathon. Do a trail running ultra marathon. Too tough on your knees? Ride a bike, but don't keep riding slowly, ride fast, for hours, like you've just been blood doping in the Swiss alps.

Sorry to hear that. Maybe, if it’s possible, you can try doing your weights at home. I solely work out from home. All you need is a pair of adjustable dumbbells. Maybe a flat bench. I have a great dumbbell only workout program if you ever need.

That’s fantastic, man. I like junk food, like everyone else, but it really is evil. Same as sugar. Sugar has no benefits.

Interesting. I eat dinner between 3-4pm. Weirds most people out, but it gives the body time to process before I hit the sack and I love it.

It takes discipline, but it’s easy once it’s routine. Looking like an Adonis makes it worthwhile 😜.

Yea, sugar was a big one for me, was a sugar fiend. Would eat a whole share bag size of lollies in one go if ya let me! Was eating chocolate bars or lollies every day without fail. I still drink Coke occasionally, but moved over to the No Sugar version, but found my tastebuds changed for a lot of things too. Like the GF had a bag of the fun size chocolates the other week, so I had a Snickers bar, which was about the first time I had chocolate in about 6 months and it tasted awful. So kinda don't have the inclination to go back to it which isn't the worst thing in the world.

don’t have any home equipment unfortunately. But I’m living in Singapore and they are treating covid as endemic now so gyms are open so will be going again few times a week. I made a lot of gains in 2019 working out consistently and eating right for the whole year and then once covid hit, gyms were closed for like the whole year on and off and it’s amazing and incredibly frustrating how only within a few months you can lose all gains...

Yeah, you can lose it pretty quickly. It’s frustrating. That’s why consistency is important. I get agro if I miss a session because of life, weather, what have you.

Fun fact. I used to log all my missed workout sessions as a reminder. This is how many times you should have exercised, but didn’t. Lmao.
