    Thanks for the reply! I always thought rice and whole wheat pasta was a No-go. I usually eat chicken and broccoli so i get hungry Very fast. Did not know the salt thing either, good tip!!

    Also i always felt i had to work out, Every day. 3 Times Sounds less consuming.

    I will try this and find some exercises on youtube! You really got me more motivated with that reply, Thank you! ?

    :Edit: Is coffe good or bad!? I mean the caffeine, it makes you thirsty if i remember correctly. Maybe i should try green Tea :)

    I don't know that. I don't drink coffee so I never looked for such info.

    Coffee is fine. I drink shit tonnes of the stuff.

    Working out is easy. Diet is the hard part. Best advice I can give you is just mind what you eat. Read the macros on the back. Count your calories. I use myfitnesspal to track what I eat. I could write a book on what you can do to start off. Just find some weights and use them at home. Dumbells, barbell, whatever. Just start.

    Coffee is fine in moderation - don't overdo it though. It is a diarrhetic. But to overdo it you need to drink like 10 cups a day (I'm currently on number 2 of a normal 4-5 cups per day :/).

    Watch out for all the pro buff people throwing every possible exercise at you. From personal experience, I've found it best to concentrate on one kind of workout routine for a few months. Learn how to maintain good posture and correctly go through the motions. I think this is something a lot of people overlook and then end up injuring themselves. Like dux mentioned, get some weights and start at home. I would recommend this for you:

    Also, get yourself checked on that effort asthma. It's better to have a professional opinion on the matter.

    Started the diet, fuck. Im used to eat a sandwich every now and then, but nope. So far so good! I've been eating eggs for breakfast, and two small meals / day. Works pretty good! Im feeling slimmer already and i've been doing powerwalks. Have a cold so i use that as an excuse for not looking up where my weights are. All in all, thanks for the advices, i actually feel i am on the right path, i just have to stay away from temptation (like at work, where everybody have started bringing cake for some fucking reason).

    I wouldn't call it a diet. A diet is something you do for a period of time that I don't think is very beneficial in the long term. When people "diet" they will eventually come off of it, and they regain the weight because they go back to how they used to eat. Just change how you eat and what you eat and keep it that way. Eat whatever you want, just eat sensibly. You can have cake. Just not all of it. But if you do have all of it, work harder in the gym. Calories in calories out.

    Yes, you are right Dux. Diets are for old chicks anyway haha.

    So, first weeks result is 3 kgs less, but it feels like 10 less. I know its alot of water missing now but i am more than happy with the result. Its nice to see that i am eating right because i haven't been hungry at all!

    I actually liked cooking meals this week, trying new things with great results!

    Anyway, after a week of meat i am going wild with more chicken, will probably try to cook salmon also even tho i don't like it. Time for my scrambled eggs baby!

    2 weeks, almost 5 kgs now. Been hard this weekend to not buy the "good stuff" since we had amazing weather here in sweden. I started reading about the paper-towel analogy for some reason and it actually helped me resist beer, snacks and what not this weekend! The lesson to be learned is that fat, like paper towels, comes off in sheets. When you are heavy, you are big around. And when you are big around, that fat is spread over a MUCH larger area - just like that outside towel sheet. The closer you get to the lean you, the more each lost pound of fat shows, because it is spread over a smaller area.

    While the outside sheet may only cover 1 layer of the roll, the inside sheet may go around 4 times. That last sheet looks like it gives you 4 times the results of the first sheet, but in reality, the results are the same - your perception is just different! And you’ll never see the inside, if you aren’t patient while the outside is coming off!

    If anyone feels demotivated I used to be fat and demotivated. Pick up a weight or some running shoes and get after it.

    I was 21 when I was fat. I lost the weight around 24-25 but didn't start taking the gym seriously again until the past year. I'm 30 now. I've been fat, skinny and how I am now.

    Youtube is full of so called fitness/bodybuilding experts, but have you heard about Charles Poliquin? give it a try, read his books and articles. I found them really helpful in my gym endeavours.

    I can stuff myself as much as I want and I won't gain weight. It's like the moment I swallow food it magically disappears from my body, quickest fucking metabolism.

    I'm a skeleton as well but who cares, skeletons are cool.
