    [img]"http://dakd0cjsv8wfa.cloudfront.net/images/photos/807/203/8807203_8558.jpg"[/img] I lost about 30lbs eating 1200 calories a day, but then gained 10 of that back when I stopped restricting my diet so much (going from 1200/day to 1400/day)... I've learned since then that it's not bad to eat so many calories, as long as they're healthy! I've been maintaining the same weight (even over the holidays) currently eating 1500ish calories a day (only working out MAYBE once a week). But I KNOW I can drop some weight if I workout more frequently, and I'll be able to eat more :)

    You should for sure look up your BMR and/or TDEE, my body supposedly supposedly burns between 1400-1600 a day (depending on what equation I use). You don't want your body going into starvation mode... unless you want to only eat 1200 calories a day your whole life...
  • Thanks guys,

    In all fairness it was sustainable. Once I hit goal weight I ate 2000 calories for 18 months and then suddenly i was depressed with my job, my boyfriend left me and I gained all the weight back in 6 short months due to emotional eating of in excess of 3000 calories a day and completely getting lost in a state of depression.

    I started a new job a month ago and I feel I can get to more healthy emotional state.


    You're photos are all great inspiration!

    I'm not exactly sure how much I lost,
    I think there was a time I was easily 180-200 lbs but it's been a long journey.
    This recent photo was from New Years, and I just had a baby less than a year ago.
    The old photo I was probably about 14 years old, I have dealt with my weight since childhood.
    My current weight is about 116. Don't give up, if I did it anybody can!

    You can do it!! I was 188 lbs the day before I gave birth to my second kid May 16th 2013. At my 6 week post partum I was 170 lbs. As of today, I'm 125 lbs and in the best shape of my life.


    38 weeks pregnant and two weeks after having my son.

    I am 5'4. The first pic was about 2 months after I had my youngest in May of 2012. I have no clue what my weight was in either of the top two pics.

    The bottom left pic was Christmas Eve 2012. I was about 245-250.
    The bottom middle pic was St Patty's Day 2013. 240ish lbs
    The bottom right was 12/22/2013. 220lbs.

    I'm not sure of the weight difference, it's not too huge, but the confidence, arm size, and face size are most obvious. Also, the weight difference isn't too great because I lift, but I look very different and feel very different most importantly, still feel i have a ways to go though

    the first is my high weight around may of 2012, and the second is yesterday, I don't have a clear full body pic, but you can clearly see if in my face.
