32 years old, emotional eater. Always yoyoed with my weight. I'm the Army and pretty active, just have to control my calorie intake. I'm 5'6" and female and got up to a whopping 196 which is huge on my frame. Down to 175 and honestly need to get down to around 157. Haven't weighed that much since I was 18, and have doubts as to my ability to succeed.

    You can do it!! We're about the same in height/weight... I got up that high too (not preggo) & got all the way down to about 147lbs (gained about 20lbs+ back over the past 2 years). It's doable, it just takes dedication & motivation. I almost have to remotivate myself EVERY DAY. But I know I can get back down to that weight & keep it off this time! Slow & steady wins the race ;) You got this!!!
