I’m tired of being overweight I need help

[iwantobealion]

I stepped on the scale first time in a long time and I’m 315lbs. I use to be a kickboxer in shape and full of energy. I can’t even go to the gym because they are closed in my state. My clothes don’t fit and get out of breath when I tie my shoes. Where should I start?????

Buy a food scale, download myfitnesspal or other calorie tracking app, learn to track out how much food you're actually eating every day.

To lose weight, you need a strong will on two things, which are to maintain sports and healthy food to win impressive results

OP, ignore this ^^^^.

Consistently at fewer calories than you burn.
Lift weights to preserve and even build some muscle as you lose fat. (If your goal is to lose FAT and not just 'weight', then you need to lift weights.) xsquid gave you SOLID advice.

a good diet, a good sport and most importantly, patience

wrong. You need to take in fewer calories than you burn. Start by reading the stickies at the top of the forum then come back with questions

Diet tracking as mentioned in posts above
Walking (put a step counter on your phone)
Bodyweight exercises to start- pushups, situps/leg raises, bodyweight squats, lunges, stepups on 2 stairs. Pullups and reverse row (reverse row is just pullup on a much lower angle). There are so many exercises you can do starting out the first couple months that won't require any weights and when you do start with weights your joints, tendons, ligaments and muscles will be prepared.

Hey,
I also gained weight during lockdown but then I started working out. I use to take online workout sessions to keep myself motivated. You can also go for online sessions to get started. Also, I'm following the diet plan.
I started noticing changes in a month.
Hope you will get fir soon!
