wilsonx Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 True story... Ive lost 19 pounds this month from either lack of eating, eating too little or cutting the junk food out of my diet and drinking 3-4 gallons of water every day plus hitting the gym and jogging. Today was my day off =) Everyone including my parents are like wow... whats your secret... I call it the break up diet... screw jenny craig, you do not have to pay anything but emotional energy for this!!! thought I would post a positive topic in this forum for a change
Misprint Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 I love this! Good stuff I too have been exercising more. Bicycling, running, Insanity. Helps manage the emotions
lovesickmonkey Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 I lost 23 pounds in the first month and 7 more in the second. You're right. It starts with not wanting to eat, then exercise to feel better and then improving your diet to keep it going. Thin feels good.
Nohbody Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Yeah, without doing anything I lost about ten pounds the first two weeks. I was 190 when I left California, now I'm 160 and stable (Four months later), it's been up and down, and after BOSS it was 150. I'm slowly rebuilding my muscle mass and keeping the fat down... like quite a few people, I'm happier with what I see in the mirror, so there's that.
HeartOfAPhoenix Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 I got P90X right after my breakup, people ask me where all my weight has gone and I just tell them I'm on the Xdiet. they say oh p90x?... I'm like "sure!!!" lol weighed 188lbs at the time of my breakup, this morning I weighed 147.6 and my weight will fluctuate up to about 153.
Author wilsonx Posted July 23, 2011 Author Posted July 23, 2011 nice man, congrats on the p90x... I am not in the shape to hit that up yet.. I just jog/swim and lift.
Duckduckgoose Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 I lost 30 pounds after my exH left. I didn't have 30 lbs to lose... it put me under 100 lbs. It took a lot of exercise, eating, and muscle building to get it back... it was mostly muscle I lost
FinOuch Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Congrats! And hurray for finding the silver lining! For the people who have the P90x, is it worth it? I've seriously been considering it since I've heard it's brutally awesome! I went from 137 to 122 thanks to the depression diet. And it was a great way to usher in a new goal of keeping it off. Well, I will admit to gaining three of it back. (it's summer...I have to have a blizzard now and then!) My mom asked when she came to visit what my secret was for being so skinny. I told her just have Dad break her heart. She was not amused.
