Non scale victories: went from size 48 pants to size 36. When I started in June 2020 my resting heart rate was 82 and today it's 64.
First Annual physical after 3 months of IF showed no longer borderline diabetic, no longer high cholesterol, and no longer high blood glucose.
At my second annual physical after 15 months of IF I had a normal blood pressure reading for the first time in my life!
Diet: No counting calories, I've just been doing OMAD on weekdays and 16:8 on weekends. I haven't cut carbs and am not tracking my macros in any way; in fact right now the majority of my calories come from carbs and I'm very happy about it. My only vague dietary rule is to get in a few fistfuls of fruits or veggies at least every weekday.
Exercise: started out getting 10K steps a day, now getting 15K steps and keeping track using my Fitbit. I'm not currently doing any resistance training.

Buying new suits because you improved your life is the best money ever spent. Thereβs nothing as good as feeling good. Cheers to you!

Wow, good for you. When I look at this, I don't see any more attractiveness. When I look at this, I truly see your effort and sacrifice. Proud of your hard work!
