    I always forget to add this in my story!!! Before I lost weight I did not have a period for 3 years, was told I couldn't have children & I had ovaries problems. Within the first month of working out I got my period after 40 pounds lost I went to the doctor & I am able to have kids! It's totally wort it not only do I feel beautiful I feel happy
    That is truly amazing. You changed something fundamental about your health on a biological level. A great reminder that losing weight isn't just about the outside and how we look, or even how we feel, but also about the improvements and benefits to our internal health systems at every level. I'm happy for you that you can have children![/quote]

    Thank you so very much !!! ❤️
    I do feel so happy that I can have kids now :)

    I thought I'd commented on your post but apparently not. You are one of the incredible "losers" that inspire me on days when my motivation falters
    Your beauty and determination are so inspiring. Thanks for sharing your story

    Hi you look so pretty and inspire me. I am just about your starting size and the same height as you.I have some questions if you don't mind.
    How many calories did you eat a day to lose the weight?
    What is a portion size for you?
    How long did it take to lose the weight?
    How long do you work out for a day? And what kind of exercises do you do?

    Sorry if you answered any of these already, Thank you so much!

    Calories a day to lose weight : 1600 - 1800 a day
    Portion size: this is listed on the back in the nutrition info so if I'm having fish sticks & I look at the box a serving is 4 so I would have 4 then have veggies & cottage cheese (something like that)
    Workout: 30 min - 2 hours , depending on my mood. I only did cardio in the beginning then added weights. I recommend doing weight exercises from the beginning though to tighten skin as you go :)

    I'm 5'4, my starting weight was 250, I am currently 150. My starting shirt size was 2x now I am size small, pant size 18 now I am size 6! The key to my weight loss was eating normally but in portions, no starving, no overworking myself, I did not cut out junk food. I allow myself to enjoy food still but in a responsible way. I started by replacing & reducing my fast food with healthier choices. Example: serving of chips instead of fries, dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate, etc... There was a time in my life that I cut everything out & I could never lose weight. I found the technique I used most effective since I eat normal & im able to maintain weight! Any questions ask!!!!

    Congratulations! You look fantastic! How did you calculate calories so that you did not feel too hungry but still lost weight? I am starving on 1200 or 1300 calories a day. :-(

    If you're hungry , eat..
    You are starving yourself, if you go to bed hungry that is starving yourself. You need to be eating well over 1200. There's no way that you can eat 1200 a day for the rest of your life. The way you eat now is how you have to eat in order to keep the weight off. I calculate my calories by how full my body is. I slowly increased & I would see if I was hungry before bed. The best calorie intake for me is 1800 a day
