I already share this one on another post, but here it goes

Blimey you’ve done incredibly well!

16 months, two thirds of the way through. Started at 21.5 and weighed today at 13.7. It's slower at 60 but not impossible

I'm basically in a recomp right now. FAR from over, and still a long ways from what I would call my "goal weight" but my fitness is a MUCH bigger priority than a number on the scale. 4 weeks between these photos, I was working out before this, obviously still am, and am finally to a longer-term workout routine that will support my needs as a racer.

There is less than a 2 pound weight difference between these photos!



As a bit of history: I was getting pretty darn fit and the weight dropping near the end of 2016 when I badly broke my leg. Over the next 11 months I went through 4 surgeries and a lot of stress making sure I didn't lose my leg. Walking was a challenge most of the year. The stress meant I didn't have the energy or desire to worry about my weight or what I ate. I put back on 2/3 of the weight I had lost the previous year

I was finally able to return to "normal" workouts in late November, and have been increasing the intensity steadily since. Also started back to watching my intake and doing more cooking at home - and fitting my occasional "unhealthy" eating out into my calories!
