85lbs to goal!!!

crystaldougherty · January 2011

So I've been at this whole weightloss for 9 months now, I've faded in and out with my food diary but never lost track of the weight, its been a rocky rollercoaster and seems its a long uphill drag to finish off my goal. When I started I didn't realize just how big I was....a whopping 340 lbs possibly MORE....I didn't realize how much issues I would have if it wasn't for my cousin and his girlfriend who have been my mentors throughout it all, with out them I'd be back on the gaining rack...I've lost 115lbs to date, if I didn't make any gains I'd be close to my goal of 200lbs lost. When I first started I was horrifying I didn't recognize it until I lost my first 5-10 lbs.. and looking at pictures now and all my measurements all I can think is WOW...How did I let myself get that way in the first place...A question to which still ponders my mind, but instead of dreading on it I'm fixing it...

Thats fantastic !!
And what did you do to get there? how many calories a day? how much exercise?

Thanks all. I've been consuming 1600 calories a day for the past 2 months, and try to do 1-2 hours exercise through out the day. I am proud. and yes when I look to the scale and see I've either lost nothing or 1 lb I STILL get disappointed.
