This is excellent progress. I started at 415 and after about 18 months I am down 90lbs. It is always motivating to see these lifestyle changes since it is where I am right now. I have been battling and plateauing for 6 weeks, finally losing an eighth of a pound after almost a month.
It is a rough ride and I want nothing more to get under 300 by the end of the year.1 -
Forgot to update monday.. was at 216.9. I am going on vacation for the 4th of July weekend so we shall see how that goes. Hoping to not come back having gained too much. I will have a guest gym pass to use at least to try and stay on track haha.3

Made it through vacation unscathed.. gave my body a day or two to adjust once I got back scale said 215.7 this AM. Was able to get at least one workout in on vacation and did a lot of walking. Happy I still lost a bit, and didn't gain.4

Yes I'm aware. There are some days I eat above that, some days I eat below. It just depends. I've found what works for me without being starved. I've been slowly upping my calories as I get closer to where I want to be. I'm never hungry though.3 -
I just read your entire thread!! You're doing AMAZING! I have about 28-33 pounds to lose and you're inspiring me to get my booty moving more! I friend requested you0

Seriously, Congrats. I've been trying to lose weight for years and sometimes it is just easier to say screw it and stop dieting. Your weight loss journey is very inspiring.1

209.3 as of this morning. Going to dial back the exercise or start upping my calories. Losing too fast. I've been working out alot more...so going to dial back a bit. I'm actually pretty happy where I'm at. Trying to give myself some cushion as I want to start building some muscle and tone up a bit which I know I will have to eat a bit more and start lifting a little heavier so I expect to put a few lbs back on.4

I’ve followed your journey for a few months now and just wanted to say congratulations on your continued weight loss success.0

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I remember reading in one of your posts that you eat pizza every day. Have you thought about eating more clean meals? I think what you eat is more important than a calorie deficit for your overall health. Maybe it'd help with the blood pressure too? (I'm not an expert, just a thought I had)
Good luck!0 -

Good luck!
I eat pizza every day when I am working from home instead of the office. This isn't every single week, I've just happened to be working from home the past few weeks..so it's been an every day occurrence. My blood pressure is back to normal levels now that I've lost all this weight. All of my blood work/cholesterol levels etc are all good. I'm off all the medications I was on before and my doctor is happy with everything.
I don't really have a desire to eat "clean". I get plenty of protein in my other meals, and fiber etc. If my blood levels were out of whack and my BP was back up I would worry, but everything is in normal ranges now even with eating pizza alot.11 -
203.6 today... some weeks i swear i think i eat worse than normal but still lose more than I thought I would. Still kicking *kitten* in the gym which probably helps, but 200 is in my sites haha.5
