in Success Stories
This isn't really a success story because I'm not at my goal weight yet but, it is in some sort of way since I have achieve a few of my mini goals :smile: I started in August to try and lose weight so, it's taken me two to three months to get to 171 lbs! :noway:

It's not that great since it's not dramatic but, it is too me because I have been obese for the majority of my life so, losing 25 lbs is such a great achievement. :heart:

I still have a long way to go until I'm in-between 130 - 140 lbs but I will get there just wait!!

There's not that big of a difference in my body but my arms look a tad slimmer and my back fat isn't as bad as before and my clothes are more fitting.

My bum/legs still need work but overall I'm happier than I was before this journey. :flowerforyou:

    Don't sell yourself short. You are a success even if you're not at your goal weight. You are a success because:

    1. You are on here
    2. You have lost 25 pounds
    3. Your body composition has changed
    4. You are leading a much more healthier lifestyle.

    If you can think of anymore please add them and hold on to those successes. Well done on what you have done and keep going. Every little positive change you make is a success.:flowerforyou:

    I can see a big difference, especially for only a few months. Great job!

    edit: I see you often eat less than 1000 calories a day even when you exercise. You're young; don't screw up your metabolism and please starting eating more:flowerforyou:
