my first 60# came off in the first 3 monts. then hit a hard stop.

i have to eat almost nothing to reignite the fat burn now.

I added unflavored protein to pretty much everything. Still add protein to iced coffee. Best one I found was Isopure unflavored. I’ve lost about half what you’re planning in 8 months with little muscle loss (I monitor muscle and bone w/a very nice scale that tells me what my muscle, fat, bone, and water weigh).

That is smart. I need to start doing that again...

how many calories are unflavored protein?

how many calories are unflavored protein?

In unflavored Isopure, 110 calories and 26 gms protein. Others I’m not sure- I just lived on it for months because I had no appetite and didn’t want to lose too much muscle

i guess...

i guess...

If you go with Hearthy brand, they have 30 gms/scoop. I’m trying to decide if it’s worth switching..

I know a lot have already said it but 100lbs in 6 months is extreme. I once did 75lbs in 6 months. I diet crashed and ended up gaining most of it back. This was before the days of GLP1s. The main issue with this goal is you will lose lots of muscle in the process. Personlly if it was me, I would aim for 50lbs loss and do 3 whole body workouts a week and 30min of cardio daily. Lifting with high protein intake will help save muscle. Plus, recent studies on weight loss show weight lifting by itself is the most effective way to lose weight when combined with diet. With all that said you do you for your health. I personally chose a faster route myself to cure my sleep apnea. I'm down 35lbs in 4 months still have another 35 to 40lbs to go.
