Imagine 40 pounds,like the catch this guy is showing, thats the total of my weight lost as of today.

I’m so happy, it feels so good and if I can do it, you can too. You need to commit to it, have a goal, have the determination to do it and follow the rules. Oh in no way I will tell you it is easy because thats not. But if you know why you are doing it just look around you and see the “fat” guys, compare and see yourself in the mirror, you are so glad you started this. Once you start it and have a little success just look forward to the next one. Every pound is a goal and a winning step towards a healthy life. For sure.

Do it, you earn it to yourself and your family who will be proud of you.(My wife loves to touch me more……)

I came across an article on internet what exactly describes how weight lost works, I could not explain this any better;

The key to weight control is keeping energy intake (food) and energy output (physical activity) in balance. To lose weight, you must burn more calories than you eat.
Exercise is the best way to do this. When you exercise regularly, you build stronger muscles, even if you do not work out with weights. Muscles use more calories than fat throughout the day, even while you are resting. This helps boost your metabolism.

How much exercise you need to make a difference in your weight depends on how much you eat and what activity you are doing. A medium-sized adult would have to walk more than 30 miles to burn up 3,500 calories, the equivalent of one pound of fat. Although that may seem like a lot, you don’t have to walk the 30 miles all at once. Walking a mile a day for 30 days will achieve the same result, as long as you you don’t eat more than usual.

If you eat 100 calories a day more than your body needs, you will gain approximately 10 pounds in year. You could lose the weight or keep it off by doing 30 minutes of moderate exercise daily. The combination of exercise and diet is the best way to control your weight.

If you are doing a regular program of strength training (weight lifting), your muscles will get bigger. It is possible that your overall weight will increase, because muscle weighs more than fat.
