    Hi JD,

    Do you mind me asking what your weight loss was?

    Cheers,
    Drew

    5'6 went from 360 to 219 keto style mother of 4 trying to be the best I can for my babies.

    Wow, what a difference! My children are my inspiration too, I want to have more energy for them!

    5'7" - heaviest was 194+, current/lower weight pics are between 168 and 172. It's been a journey, but I keep getting stronger and I'm proud of my results!


    What a difference in 25ish lbs made for you, you look incredible!

    @dsboohead I hit the genetic lottery (25in Incase you are curious). I don’t do any special workouts or use corsets.

    You do look like you live in a corset!

    I've posted these in some other topics, but here they are again since I'm 5'6.5".

    I do a lot of walking and try to keep my calories around 1200/day. I also drink a ton of water.

    Congrats on your weight loss!! You look great! Did you lose 10 pounds a month? I'm just curious because I have been doing everything as you did drinking ton of water, walking for excercise, and watching portions.

    Thanks so much, @sabkhan32!

    The first few months I lost quite a bit. When you dramatically change your habits, the weight comes off easier. After the holidays I struggled a lot and thought I plateaued. Looking back, I'm still losing, just not as rapidly as before. I weight myself daily, so I have a record of every month and my progress. lol There was a LOT of fluctuation in Jan/Feb.

    Sept 1, 2015 - 225
    Oct 1, 2015 – 207.4
    Nov 1, 2015 – 198.2
    Dec 1, 2015 – 188.4
    Jan 1, 2016 – 177.4
    Feb 1, 2016 - 174
    March 1, 2016 - 169.8
    April 1, 2016 – 164.2

    Changing how you look at food helps tremendously. My two-question approach has saved my butt a lot during some difficult times:

    Before you indulge in something that's not the healthiest ask yourself these two things:
    1. Have I had it before? (If yes, I don't need it right now. If no, go to question 2.)
    2. Can I get it again? (If yes, I don't need it right now while I'm reaching my goal - I'll get it again another time. If no, have it in moderation. If it's super special like an Iron Chef prepared 10-course meal, eat it all! lol)

    I really like this. I have up chocolate, sugar and sweets 1.5 years ago. I still miss it. And sometimes I think I can fit it in my calories. But I know it's a trigger. It's easier to abstain than moderate. I figure it will be there when I lose 40 more lbs of I want it then. Same with a few other food favorites. When I identify a trigger food it's gotta go for a while.

    I’m the same way with chocolate, sugar and sweets! I gave them up about 1.5 years ago as well.
