    What was your calorie intake per day, I'm assuming you had 0 days off in that time.

    That's a ton in that time. Played.
    1600-2000 calories a day with an hour of excercise every day. Usually burning around 800-1100 calories

    Truly an inspiration. What sparked you to lose weight? I’ve got 50lbs to lose and it’s such a mental think. The self sabotage is so strong for me

    now that you are at 187 lbs, dont focus in weight anymore. just try to low your fat % and put more time in the resistance workout. hight weights and 6-12 reps is the best way to burn more calories and to maintain/build muscles.

    Great job!
    Question - do you ever question in your mind what weight you really want to get to?

    I keep changing my goals around as I go. Right now my goal is 157 and I’ll check my abdomen and waist to see if I’m happy, if not I’ll just keep going until I’m happy
