So up to 6'2" 340 now. Ordered the Nutrisystem 7 day a week plan (Didn't work. I couldn't stick to it.)

Good luck.

I have lost a lot of of weight over the last 2 years. The only change was trying to chew every mouthful of food 20 times before swallowing. I am guessing it improved my digestion and makes me tired of eating so much.

Drink more water.
Using powdered gatorade and only using enuff to make it taste good.

Man, I’m proud of you. I retired June1st, and have put on 10 pounds in one month…I have GOT to reel it in a bit…I want to get back on the weights again, but just haven’t found the drive yet…guess I’ll just force myself…

I'll let you guys know how it works out.

Hope you get good results although that's a good bit of money involved. Not saying your health isn't worth it. But there's no way I could afford it.
On a side note my Convenient Care clinic wants me to start using this weekly injection called Wegovy. Well if they can get my insurance to cover it. Works like Ozempic but not for A1C diabetic use. Strictly for weight loss. But if Aetna won't cover it there's no way I can afford it.

I got a recumbent bike, a treadmill, and a nice set of weights I'm gonna start using. Gonna hold off on walking until I drop about 50 pounds too much stress on my knees right now.

I setup a weight bench at work right beside the printing machine. I was hoping that all three of us would start using it. But lazy is a hard habit to break. Not to mention the heat in the shop is brutal lately.

Keto and every other diet hasn't worked for me.

If I'm not given exactly everything I need to eat for the week I can't lose weight. Nutrisystem is the only plan that gives you 6 meals a day for every day of the week. So, no guess work.

So how does that stuff taste?

You can diet this way and that but until you burn more calories than you're taking in you won't lose the weight

I try to keep it basic and just concentrate on cutting the calories. I don't like sodas so that part is easy. I don't drink milk or eat cereal so that's not an issue. If I could just cut beer out completely it would probably make all the difference. Lately I start the evening with one big (24oz) beer and then switch to vodka and club soda.

^^ THIS ^^ for sure. No matter what you do with your diet/consumption, always try and incorporate some type of exercise. Eat less, move more...even if it's just walking.

More yard work in this heat.
