Well, TBH I was hoping for more insight on the supplement I mentioned because I have already bought it.
Like I said, I lost 55 pounds about two years ago. I did it by not eating much & exercising a little bit... I cut all sodas out a long time ago. Lately I've been drinking odd beers quite a bit, but I've pretty much always drank except for when I lost the weight the first time. Since then I've been able to drink whenever I want & not gain weight.
It changed for me when I started working mornings about 5-6 weeks ago. I never worked mornings before. I've also been not watching what I eat as much because now I've been hanging out with a different crowd than before. In other words I used to be up all hours of the night, now I hang out early in the afternoon & eat out a bit more. Anyways, I know where I fucked up recently & I've been cleaning that up & eating more cautiously.
I had surgery in December & I couldn't go to the gym for a while. Before then I was going to the gym 4-5 days a week & getting some great workouts in. I tightened up & gained some muscle while not really losing any weight, which was acceptable at the time, even though it would always be nice to gain muscle AND lose fat. That's not technically practible, however.
I'm actually pretty uncomfortable with my weight. How about this question - Has anyone here ever tried any weight loss supplements???
It's easy to knock something that you don't need or don't have an interest in & I know a lot of people here don't have weight problems. I've struggled with my weight for years. I lost weight by eating sparingly the first time, but I eventually got to a point where I hit a plateau & would not lose anymore weight even with exercise & excessive dieting. In other words I've tried a lot of stuff & maybe a safe supplement would be good for me at this point. My friend said he lost 30 pounds pretty quick on this "Alli" stuff & it's not going to speed my heart rate.
About working out, I do pretty damn good in the gym. I know how to target all my muscle groups & I do target training for usually about an hour or more. It's hard for me to jog for a long time because I put too much force on my chins, but I can hit an eliptical for an hour if I have my mp3 player with.
