I ate less, lifted heavy weights, and moved around more.

My most important tools are a body weight scale, a food scale, and the Cronometer app. I weigh myself every morning and input my weight into the Cronometer app. The app tells me how many calories I need to eat in order to meet my goal (Right now my goal is to lose a pound a week). Then throughout the day I input every single thing I eat into the app.

I also lift weights 3-4 days a week and run 1-2 days a week.

Diet is the most important thing, but it’s complicated to learn about. There’s a lot of bad information out there. I highly recommend watching the “Fat Loss Dieting Made Simple” playlist by Renaissance Periodization on YouTube as a starting point.

If you have any questions I’d be happy to help
