hi everyone my name is Niharika and i'm 21 yrs old. I've always been overweight since i was about 12 years old. Till this March, my weight didn't affect me much even after being teased about it. I never paid attention to my diet or my lack of activity until it hit me that this could destroy my health as well as my life socially. I would see all my friends wearing wonderful clothes which i couldn't wear. I didnt seem to bother about all this until now. So i got off my couch and started working out and watching my diet. I basically just started eating clean, home-cooked food and avoiding my sunday- usuals like pizza, burger and the likes. I used to have a glass of coca-cola everyday without fail but i gave up that habbit as i realised i was consuming empty calories.
so my starting weight was 189 pounds as of march 25th 2015 and currently i weigh 162 pounds!!
My wish is to lose another 20 pounds and reach my goal weight of 142 pounds by my birthday i.e. september 28![:blush: :blush:](https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/resources/emoji/blush.png)
so this is my progress story up till now..thanks for reading it and if u have a similar story plz feel free to share it with me

I was 47 kgs before 4 yrs and never had any weight issues. But then due to unhealthy eating i put on 30 kgs within 2 yrs. Being obese never bothered me until i discovered that im suffering from pcos. Then i thought of changing my diet completly and within 3 months i lost 14 kgs with current weight 63 kgs without exercise and i hope to reach targe weight 54 kgs within next 3 months.0

I believe diet plays a major role in weight loss than exercise. Just clean diet ie no sugar, carbs, junk, etc instead greeen tea, fruits, salad, home made food0

congrats on your weight loss @mariazm840
and yes diet does play a very important role in weight loss. Although i do believe weight loss is the result of both changes in your diet as well as exercise!0 -

Congratulations! I have been heavy in my life, but the last 4 year it got out of control. I was in a bad relationship and ate my feelings. I ended up at 253 pounds then I kicked him to the curve and decided to get my life back. Today I am 186 and my goal is 140. I wanted to be that weight by time I had my birthday in September but I got off track for four months. I didn't gain anything but I didn't lose anything either. I did learn that I can maintain the weight so that has motivated me again and I know when I get to my 140 mark I will be able to stay there. Good luck reaching your goal by your birthday.0
