More than half way there! 110lb loss

slimmervicki2007

Hi everyone, so I never thought that I would be writing in the success stories but here I am!
It’s taken years and years of yo yo-Ing but I’m finally getting there.
I started my weight loss journey at 318 lbs, joined mfp after loosing 12lbs, left and then came back over and over. Around a year ago something just clicked, I gave up pepsi max, smoking and more recently sugar. I have cleaned my diet up and as a result stand at a 110lb loss taking me to 208lbs! I’m not done yet hopefully I would like to get to 150-160 but I’m so proud of how far I have come.
For any one wondering I’m 5’9.
Ps. Why did nobody tell me that I would get actual bruises from where my knees press together at night?

So did you count calories diligently after it clicked? To lose the weight?

No, I haven’t counted anything diligently. I just ate better things. To be honest giving up sugar and dairy seemed to make the biggest difference, although I gave up dairy because of an intolerance which I developed. If I stall on my weight loss then I will count calories for maybe a week to see where I’m going wrong and get myself back on track again.
