Stats: F23, 5'8", SW: 120kg/264.6lbs GW: 60kg/132.3lbs CW: 59kg/130.3lbs

Long story short:

First I stopped getting so damn drunk so damn often, which lost me 44lbs/6months.
Then I made calorie counting my new favorite hobby for 11months and lost 86lbs doing that.
Then I cried over my lack of progress for 3 months, only to suddenly find I had lost 5lbs, surpassing my goal! ;)

    Did you exercise or was it purely just calorie counting? If so, what workouts did you stick to? Thank you (:
  • Great Job!

    Did some weight lifting last spring, but not since. So I've only done my bicycle commute to and from uni, about 20min each way :)
