re: People who've lost a lot of weight, how did you do it?

I bought a Fitbit and started working out a couple days per week . Then, I started to count calories for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I made sure to eat 500 calories less than my calories out (Doing that for a week resulted in 1 pound loss per week). Calories for food per day were around 1,400 and I tried to burn 1,900 or more. I lost 40 pounds and have kept it off since 2017. No miracle drug, just discipline. I now workout 5 days a week because I just feel better. I hope this helps!
