I started the year at the heaviest I've ever been and I promised myself that I would use this year to better myself. I kept that promise for about a week, and then I have up. In about March, I moved in with my boyfriend and habits changed. I started eating healthier and going to the gym more regularly. There are good and bad days and some healthier days and some binge days. I know that 20 pounds isn't very much, but for me, it has made a world of difference. I feel more confident in my own skin and I have been able to do things I haven't done in 6 years, like hiking.

I still have about 30 pounds to go for my goal weight, but I am thrilled with the progress so far. If anyone else is trying to lose weight, I believe in you and know that you can do it. If you need tips and tricks, I can share what I have done (which I know isn't much).

Doggo tax (with his monkey that was promptly destroyed)

FP Edit: thanks for all the support! Send cute doggo pics!

Congrats on regaining eyesight!

You looked great before - the fittest 198 I’ve ever seen, TBH - but *fantastic* job and good luck on the rest of your journey.

20 lbs may not be much to some, but it is when you can tell the difference in yourself! Don't get obsessed, stay healthy, do what feels best

I was about to say- she looks perfect! Maybe five pounds to tone up but she doesn’t need to lose 30. But whatever makes her happy!!

Great job, you’re doing awesome! There’s no need for those down votes but part of my upvote is for your dog.

I basically just stopped eating fast food and started making more homemade dishes. Also, cut out most sodas and sweets. That worked for me.

Awesome job! What dietary changes have you made? Which were the easiest and which were the hardest?

6 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 2

I honestly just stopped eating fast food as much and started making my own meals. I also cut out most of my soda intake.

That's a good start. By eliminating all carbs, I've lost 57 lbs so far this year. Keto and carnivore diets worked best for me.

Keto has been amazing for me, ive gone from 191 to 175 since may 1st. And have had no cravings

Yeah the newer pics are larger overall too - the loss would look even more impressive if they were scaled to the same body size, I bet.

In one shes standing in front a door, in the other it's a closet door, might explain the height change.

30lbs = 2.143st = 2π fp

Why is it approximately equals and not just equals?

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

Now if only someone can answer why I always get a down vote when I ask a meaningful question.

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Because no one really knows the exact weight of a pound

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Because the conversion would involve many more decimals if it were exact

6 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

Rounding. The bot likely rounds to the nearest 10th, so it may be more or less than the given number by a fraction of a tenth

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Correct. It rounds to 1 more significant digit than the stated measurement. So 20 pounds (1 sig dig) converts to 9.1 kg (2 sig digs). /dev
