Rapid change in my body?

I used to be 145 pounds about 2 years ago but I went YOLO and stopped caring about what I ate and shot up to 195 pounds. From 154 - 176, I saw a huge change in my body, I developed stretch marks, chubby cheeks, bulging belly and my clothes didn't fit anymore. I'm back to 176 now and still losing, would I see a rapid drop in my body size in this phase just as I gained it in this phase?

    Probably not. Much easier to gain weight than to lose it, I'm afraid.

    When you lose weight you may not notice any real "changes" for 25 pounds.You may feel better but sometimes clothing size doesn't change, weight may go down, measurements won't change but a little, then boom one day everything changes.

    Nothing happens rapidly. Weight gain causes far more changes quickly than does losing weight.
