I was 255 in Jan now at 235lb by not eating cereal, bread, sweets, drinking sugary drinks etc.

Seem to have stayed at 235 for a few weeks now so i'm guessing it's easier to lose the first lot of fat.

Been going to a gym most days but then i'm a student so have the time in the middle of the day. It would have been difficult to go that much with a FT job. Went a bit far with the cardio and now have hurt knees so watch out for that. Good luck.

Question what do you have for breakfast now you quit cereal and bread? I mostly have cereal for breakfast mostly organic and less processed /sugary brands but I still feel I could do better.

Fried eggs, plenty of Olive oil. Quark (sort of like yogurt). Sometimes still healthy cereal, just not every day.

If I need to bring breakfast to work, I'll take an avocado, some arugula, and a couple boiled eggs.

scrambled eggs + (one of: spam, bacon, smoked salmon, or sausage) and 1 cup of whole milk

Before that I used to eat unsweetened shredded wheat + skim milk for breakfast. Boy what a rube I was.

I was pretty frustrated to find out that shredded wheat has a higher glycemic index than plain table sugar.

Eggs, oats, bananas, and yogurt are all good options.
