Minor Success: 5'4 down from 194 to 183

After many years of yo-yo dieting and two eating disorders (doing much better mentally now), I am for the first time in my life losing weight in a healthy way. I still get discouraged some days, but the slow, steady progress is better than any crash diet or being unhealthy. I'm proud of my progress so far (down 11 lbs) so I wanted to share to encourage myself

11 lbs is huge. Don't let anyone take that accomplishment from you and don't you dare take it from yourself. We all start somewhere.0

Hi ! great work. I mesure 5'4'' also. I started 42 days ago at 191 pounds and I have lost 14. I am planning to lose another 40 pounds in the coming months. I am taking my time. Keep going. We are both going to succeed, slowly but surely.0

We're "twins" with our height, starting and current weights (weighted 182.9 this morning, but a tenth of a pound is still exciting to me!) Wishing you continued success and inspiration. I still can't see the weight loss yet, but my husband can and I can see the loss for you in the pictures you posted.0
