14 months and my total was 225lbs lost. I put a little back on (sitting around 200lost as of now), but it’s all about balance! I started using Instagram to keep me accountable and help me get back down to my comfortable weight.

@racheljanelleunfiltered is my account on there if anyone wants to help me/help them stay motivated. Happy new year, y’all! It CAN be done. 💪🏻

    Wow! What a life changing journey. That’s a massive amount of weight to lose. Looking at the after, I can’t fathom how you ever had over 200 more pounds on you. It just doesn’t seem possible, yet it was. The dedication it must take to transform that much is remarkable. Well done.

    Thanks y’all! I put myself on a strict paleo diet to lose the weight. After I had lost 135 completely through that and working out, I had a gastric sleeve done to maintain my lose and ended up losing an additional 90ish lbs!

    Yes. I had tons of loose skin. I had everything removed except my hips/butt area so far. That is hopefully coming soon!

    If you don’t mind me asking, what were the skin removal surgeries like??? I don’t have a ton of loose skin but sometimes I think about possibly getting some removed & am very curious about how it’s done & the whole process of it. Was it super painful? How long was your recovery period? Thank you so much in advance!!
