I have been working on losing for 3 years. I have lost 30 lbs starting at 190 :o I am happy about what I have lost but still need to lose more. I don't eat a lot of meat. Maybe red meat 2 or 3 times a month. I try to work out at least 15 minutes in the morning. Brisk walk, and cardio to raise my heart level. Stretching to loosen up tight muscles because I do sit at my job. I will walk for my 15 minute breaks to try to total at least 1 hour of movement or 5 miles (fitbit) a day.
