My Mcdonald's Diet (time lapse weight loss)

I started a program on February to see if I could lose 30 pounds before summer. My goal was to get below 270, which would get me out of the "obese" category according to BMI for somebody of my height. (6'8") I worked out usually twice a day on the treadmill, settling into 1.5 miles in the morning, and 1.5 at night every day. I also watched what I ate, eating an apple for breakfast, usually a small piece of grilled chicken for lunch, and a normal dinner, but my diet now included no deep fried foods, no sugary sodas, and no desserts.

I call my diet the "McDonald's diet" because most days my lunch was a grilled snack wrap from McDonalds, a bag of apple dippers, and a glass of water. I guess this shows it's not where you eat, it's what you eat.

I plan on keeping up the diet and hopefully I'll keep dropping those pounds, but for now I'm happy to be my weight.
My wife and one friend in particular were very supportive throughout this entire process, and without them I wouldn't have had the willpower to continue.

Thanks...

Nice one... how is it now, were you able to keep it that way?

@howtolosebellyfatx more or less... I actually got down to 240, but now i'm back around 270.

One thing that didn't change... the shorts.

[frednich9603]

@mrjspence yeah, I though it would make for a better video if I was wearing the same shorts for every picture.  it would make it look like a professional time lapse

Nice Job Frednich , that mcdonald's diet is really cool. :)

Good for you! There is no magic pill with health and weight loss / management. Its really about altering your lifestyle in a sustainable way. It actually pretty cool that as you wean yourself off sugar or salt eventually if you taste what you used to eat its unpalitable. Keep it up!
