    Congrats! Great job! You look like a different person. Well done.

    I'm 6'1" and have a similar body shape as you. I'm working on it. What kind of workout did you do? Were you following specific macro ratios?

    @russellvolk My macros at the start were 25% carb, 35% fat and 40% protein I haven't switched them much I'm now at 30% carb 35% fat and protein.

    I started off walking 20 mins a day and worked up to 1 hour a day, after I lost some weight I starting lifting some weights and walking/jogging for an hour a day. That's when winter hit so I've been lifting weights a bit and doing t25 for the last month and a bit. Also I don't deprive myself of anything, that being said ''junk food'' is reserved to once a week on Friday.

    @ckhardeman At first I was obese so I went on an ''aggressive'' calorie deficit and as my weight loss slowed down I actually uped them to 2k a day and still averaging 2lbs a week loss for the last 3 months.

    @reighngold No, lol.

    @SarahCate79 I think I look my age now lol. 25.

    Also thanks everyone, very overwhelming to me considering how shy and humble I am lol.
