Hello everyone!

I am a 34 years old man and 2 meters tall. My weight is at 155 kg and i began my journey to drop down kg. For start i began a diet like a week now that i believe is going good. I am training basketball 2 days per week but i dont over do it. I can run up and down the court and every now and then i take some rest. My biggest question is what to do when i am home not training basketball. I want to find a good program that fit me because are so many in here. I am not the type of guy that i can barelly move, i have still good ballnce and good flexibillity and strengh but off course i must to not over do it because the kg are too much. Is there any one among you than can help me out?


Thank you so much!

If you really don't know what to do, focus on programs lasting 30 or more days, they are already well-structured and progressive workouts and therefore you just have to follow them and they work well, even if you don't train every day.

Hello and welcome. In my opinion, diet and food intake management is the true lever that enables lasting weight loss. Exercise is a nice supplement, but is totally dwarfed by the importance of diet. If you have struggled with this a long time, and have failed to maintain lasting results, I invite you to ask yourself if you have a problem with food... a problem that could even stray into the realm of addiction. If that speaks to you, I strongly suggest looking into the Food Addicts Anonymous organization, and attending one of their meetings. The program they follow asks a lot of you, but there are a myriad of members who have achieved their right-sized body and maintained it for decades.

A few thoughts: Like @JohnStrong mentioned, figuring out the food part is going to help with weight loss more than exercise—though I think the two go hand in hand.

My biggest successes with food came from meal prepping, eating more while snacking less, and cutting out nutrient-empty foods and drinks.

1. Meal Prepping: Setting aside time on the weekend to plan out meals for the week, cook them, and portion them into containers for the fridge or freezer helped me a lot. I struggle when I don’t have a plan—without prepped meals, it was too easy to eat whatever was convenient. The real problem for me was that without ready-to-go food, I’d put off eating until I was really hungry, then end up bingeing.

2. Eating More, Snacking Less: Prepped meals helped me eat consistently and prevented cycles of overeating. To make things easier, I stuck to a simple, high-calorie, nutrient-dense breakfast: oatmeal and eggs. My go-to:

• 80g dry rolled oats
• 30g seed mix
• 140g frozen mixed berries
• 7g honey
• 120g Greek yogurt
• 3 eggs
• As much coffee as time allows

Having that solid first meal and preplanned meals throughout the day meant I could just grab food from the fridge instead of reaching for snacks.

3. Cutting Out Empty Calories: I eliminated soda, juice, and beer (well, except for some weekends). Cutting out those empty liquid calories made a big difference.

Making these changes created a positive cycle of weight loss and feeling good. The next step was being patient and consistent - believing in myself and the plan (easier said than done).

As for programs, there are a lot of great options here, but I think 30 Days of Change or Foundation would be great places to start. Remember that while these programs are set out as 30 day programs, you can miss a day if you’re at the gym playing basketball and then pick back up where you left off when you’re at home.

Love yourself. Be patient. Stay consistent. Keep your head held high when you miss a day. You can make this change!
