in Success Stories
So I started at 114kg (in the picture on the left I was around 105kg) and I now weigh 74kg.
This was my original goal, even though I never thought I would be able to lose 40kg.
Even though I still have another 10kg or so of fat to lose I am now focusing almost entirely on increasing strength and lifting heavy, plus 3 or 4 short runs a week.

    Great job! I'm in a similar boat, but think I probably am a bit shorter (I always am!). I started at 107kg and am currently 70kg. Aiming for about 57-60kg but these last few weeks have been rough. Seeing someone similar is really inspiring, thanks!

    Great, best wishes to keep off that weight!
    How long did it take you to get rid off these 40 kg? And how much is your net calorie intake per day?
    I am struggling to lose even 0.5 lbs since last 2 weeks or so..

    It took me 1 year to lose the first 20kg then In the 2nd year I gained back half and managed to lose it again. For the past year now I've been losing consistently. So overall with some setbacks it's taken 3.5 years.

    I was just going through all of my forum posts and I feel incredibly frustrated that I posted this 3 months ago and have not made any progress or lost any more weight :(

    You look terrific. Sometimes it doesn't hurt to just hold for a little bit. If you are maintaining that is a major victory too!
