Here it is! Finally. Before and after.
SW: 217lbs (Size: 18/XXL)
GW/CW: 159lbs (Size 6/M)

How did I do it? Calorie counting. Seriously, that is all. I started working out about two months ago but it was more to improve my overall health than support my weight loss. I started this journey on 02/19/2018 and reached my goal weight on 11/03/2018. Just over six months and 58lbs down. Now to maintain it which I think will be the most difficult part! Thank goodness for MFP.

Wowza! Your journey is pretty similar to my current and goal. Well done. Thanks for sharing the inspiration. Xxx

This is probably the worst picture that's ever been taken of me. Not sure what my weight was here, but I suspect it's a bit higher than the next picture. This was October of 2013.

My first actual 'before' picture when I decided I needed to make a change. 216.5 pounds. April of 2014.

This was taken today. I'm hovering around 150 pounds. I never imagined that I'd end up looking acceptable in a dress, or that I'd actually feel excited to purchase dresses.

Wow, you look like a totally different person!

Down 60 lbs. Lost that in the first year, maintained for the past 10 months. Working on the last 30 lbs now. So far I've gone from size 2XL to Medium tops and size 20 pants to size 12.

First pic looks like you’d given up, but once you made up your mind to change your life, you certainly didn’t waste time in excuses! Rockin’ that beach bod!

220lbs to 190. I know it's not much but it has changed me a lot and made me happier
I started working out about 3 months and can't believe the results

@DennisGetFit
Amazing job man!

Were you eating in a deficit those 3 months? Or were you more eating at maintenance and working out hard?

Just curious as the muscle gain and fat loss combo seems legendary!

@mikea2g Thanks a lot man! I appreciate it.

During the first month and a half, I was more so maintaining in terms of my caloric deficit while also only going to the gym once or twice a week because I wasn't as motivated at that time.

During the last month and a half, I started giving myself a 750-1250 calorie deficit after learning about intermittent fasting and overall how fat loss happens in general. I paired that up with going to do an intense workout 4-5 days a week and spending about an hour there give or take.

I am doing a little bit of cardio but I am letting most of the fat loss occur from the deficit and workouts.
