    What did you set you weekly weight loss goal at 2, 1.5, or 1 pound a week? Did you eat certain types of food (i.e. clean eating, low carb etc)? Did you eat your workout calories back. I have similar stats and would love to see the results you have...you look amazing!

    I set it at 2 pounds a week, and then if I ate over those calories a bit I wouldn't stress because I knew that I could still lose 1-1.5 pounds. Maybe not a great strategy, but it worked for me. I felt like it gave me a little cushion if I needed an extra snack. Initially I ate back my exercise calories, but now I don't. But I listen to my body. If I feel like I need more food, I will eat a snack. A healthy one, but I always make sure I'm not just thirsty.

    Sorry I forgot to reply to your other part. I didn't eat low carb or anything. I tried to eat healthier, but not "clean" I don't think I knew too much about clean eating back then. I'm actually just starting to learn about it. I just tried to eat less of what I was eating and tried to make healthier choices.

    Incredibly inspiring, and judging by your profile pic, you've since hit your goal since this post. Like you, I look at success stories for motivation. Something about seeing someone else succeed can give me the push I need to get started/stick with it. Thanks for your post. :smiley:
