If you are hoping to drop some poundage feel free to join the OB Weight Loss Thread - 2026 Edition.

To join, simply comment with your username, current weight, and goal weight. You'll then do a weekly weigh in (preferably every Friday) and I'll update and post the spreadsheet with everyone's progress. I'll keep updating this post with percentage pounds lost.

I'll go first. As soon we get 5 members I'll start the spreadsheet. Then will add new people as they come along. I've found some accountability does wonders for me.

Desired weight 300

Just kidding…desired weight 245. Down to last 20 pounds of fat to go after 3 years of hard work getting my athlete body back. I've completely stalled on weight loss for 6 months.

I've lost 40 pounds in the last year by completely changing my eating habits. Started 220, now around 180. Trying to stay around 175-180. Basically, eat more natural and as unprocessed as possible, don't eat refined sugar or seed oils, limit bad sodium (sea or pink Himalayan salt is good). I use unrefined coconut oil or extra virgin olive oil.

Did you mean to put this here?

Oops. Sorry about that.

I'll start the spreadsheet today. However we can keep taking new people as we go along.

Sorry to hear about your Dad. Will say a prayer for he, and your family.

Cut out sugar for the most part. No Cokes and no sugar in coffee. I will split a dessert, occasionally. Workout at a 55+, functional fitness gym three days a week. Getting a lot stronger. Do Peloton treadmill power walking sessions on days when I don't go to the gym.

I was never overweight, but was at the upper range given my height. Like to lose another five.

Goal weight - 205 Lbs

Ratcheting down diet and 4 workouts a week.


Best of luck to everyone making an effort to get better.

A peptide for weight loss but preserves muscle mass better. Been used in body building for a while now...

Lost 50lb 2 years ago w/glp1, from 335->285 but lost a lot of muscle mass. I started a 10min whole body stretch routine about a year ago, would stretch, worked up to 50 pushups on knees and 50 air squats. I also started taking creatine. As muscle mass came back and diet suffered over holidays last year went back to 315lb. I hired a trainer who was our xfit coach like 15yrs ago to get me a diet and exercise routine going. She has me on 2300-2500cal/day, protein 250g, carbs 150g, fat75g. Every morning I drink a smoothie of 1cup ff yogurt, 1banana, 1tbsp almond butter, 1 cup of mixed berries, and scoop of ag1. I used open evidence or chat gpt to create a meal plan to optimize muscle hypertrophy eating a meal at 6, 11, pre workout at 330, post workout at 630 and pre sleep meal around 8p. I she also had me wake at 5am and walk a mile, so I either walk or stretches and pu/as. When I get home from work I do an hour long workout/lifting program that she sends me weekly, 4 days a week. HIIT style with basic compound lifts included. The worst part is every Monday I have to send her pics of me in my workout shorts and no shirt, front, side, back and other side. She puts them together in a comparison from the last week and lets me know what has progressed. I also weigh daily on a scale that takes body measurements and send the recap to her with the pics. Down to 295 now, clothes fit much better. Muscles developing quite nicely (also helps to be on TRT). Insurance stopped paying for ozempic in Feb so its been a month off and dont notice any appetite changes so thats good.

2/22/26 - 235 lbs
3/19/26 - 227 lbs


Goal - 190 lbs

Making small progress but we went on vacation last week and it was hard to stay disciplined. Staying focused on counting calories, targeting 1800 per day. It's amazing how quickly a small meal of the wrong stuff can destroy progress.
