to combat belly fat and excess weight, the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans recommend that older adults get 150 to 300 minutes of moderate-intensity activity (think: walking or other types of cardio) every week. In addition, strength-train all your major muscle groups at least twice a week. Strength training helps offset the natural loss of muscle mass. Indeed, a study published in December 2014 in Obesity concluded that strength training had the biggest influence on waist circumference change in men.

Been put quite succinctly ITT.

Equally glib, but just spend more time burning calories than eating/drinking calories.

Get moving keep moving.

One of these numbers if off...

And I'm assuming it's the weight. You gotta at least weigh 190-200

Yeah even with very low muscle mass you'd have to be 190 plus

What are your current eating habits?

Obviously getting into calorie deficit until you hit the goal, is the key. But how you do that is THE question. Changing habits in a way that you don't have to rely on some crazy willpower and tracking and weighing (food) . And replacing shite you enjoy with healthier options you enjoy or learn to enjoy almost as much as the shitty things.

Satiating foods and blood sugar control. So basically a protein goal. Good absorbable, complete proteins (eggs, whey, ground beef, fish--especially whole fish like sardines and oysters).

No shitty oils (esp soybean and rapeseed aka canola)

Stay hydrated w plenty electrolytes. People often misinterpret a blood sugar dip with sodium deficit.

Work you way into eating in a smaller window.

Cut or greatly reduce alcohol and choose low carb drinks.

Just be done with added sugar for now. You can "cheat" occasionally after a glycogen-depleting exercise, after you get down.

Those are my random diet broad recs. Find exercise you'll actually do regularly. I would lift and do some body weight exercise and find some outdoor stuff that's easy and you'll do without a bunch of equipment and driving.

Sleep.

in just 2 weeks. Start with a 24 hour fast and straight keto after. Hit cardio like crazy.


Long term, eat right and lift weights. Frick cardio

It's basic calorie free caffeine. If he wants an appetite suppressant he should just take eca stack

Hmm an eca stack looks very potent and looks like it shouldn't be taken everyday. What I linked is something to drink. Surpasses any hunger between lunch and dinner. And it does provide a boost mental and physical.

I cut out carbs (except fiber) and sugar. Limiting my fat intake.

Went from 38 pants size March 20 to 33 pants size now but I think I could get into a size 32.

I eat salmon, fish, shrimp, chicken, lean red meat (1 meal), strawberries, greens, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, fat free cheese, Dr Pepper zero, lots of water, eggs, bacon, pepperoni, chia seeds, and flax seeds.

Ac1 went from 12.1 to 5.4
Blood pressure average 140+/90+ to now average 110/70.

227 to 210

I feel much better. Knees don’t hurt as much, back feels better, and I have more energy


I also have 1 cheat meal a week but I still limit my intake with that 1 cheat meal. Friday was the first time in 6 weeks I’ve had any type of bread.

Without any change in diet, I dropped 15 lbs by simply running. I repeat, no diet change at all.
I did the opposite. Lost 110 lb with nothing but diet change, no exercise beyond walking (though I exercise now). I cut out dairy and processed foods and the weight just fell off.

At least one of these numbers is off or you are the most disproportionately shaped barrel arse ever.
He’s probably giving an actual waist measurement using a tape.

For example I’m 5’10” and 180 and I bet my waist is 36”... yet I wear 32-33” pants.

Most people think that if they were 32s then they have a 32” waist. Not likely.

That makes a lot more sense. I need to probably measure my actual waist size to get a good baseline as opposed to the size jeans I wear

The averages for US are 5’9” 195.5 lbs with a waist size of 39.7 inches!
Yet, the article says that most men wear a 34 pants
