Phill Novak, a Pittsburgh Steelers fan originally weighing 387 pounds, has shed nearly half of his weights to 195 pounds. The way Novak has taken is by walking!

Two years ago, Phill Novak weighed 387 pounds.

He wasn't happy with his weight and neither were his doctors. In addition to taking medication for high blood pressure and cholesterol -- his physician warned him that he was on track to become a diabetic.

He began simply [his weight-loss journey] by walking -- one mile a day and eating a low-carbohydrate diet of 15-30 grams a day.

"I walked off my first 100 pounds," he says. "Walked it off, an hour a day. I lost 100 pounds in seven months."

Novak continued to lose weight and as he built up his endurance he started jogging. Even though he had never belonged to a gym, he wanted to incorporate strength training. But the first time he went to the gym, he was intimidated by the loud music and weight lifters. He says he quickly "scampered" out and tried a few other places until he finally found a club where he felt comfortable.

Two years later, Novak has lost a total of 192 pounds. Today, he runs 30 to 40 miles a week, works out two to three hours a day, does yoga in the morning and squeezes in a push-up whenever he gets a chance at work.

Now maintaining his weight at 195 pounds, Novak says he's made a lifestyle change and rarely takes a day off from exercise.

If you are a woman who worries about the weight, maybe you can try Fuze Slenderize gloss which is a lip gloss newly created by Californian make-up company Too Faced to help lose weight. Source: CNN
