ashrymom,
My wt has come off v slowly so definitely have to be patient. For thefirst 1-2 months I was between 193-199 then the 186/188s then slowly down to 183/184 It has taken time, I didnt doanythg drastic and I also ate out sometimes more than I wantedto with friends etc. so i kept going down and up. I think if I was strict with my food the wt wouldhavevsteadily come off a bit quicker.
I am now tryg desperately to get out of the 180s and its been v hard. I addeda green smoothie for my guthealth and that added carbs so Im at 100 gms protein 100 gms carbs, 70 gns fat. Still at 1300-1400 cals.
Have another 30 lbs to go ughhh3 -

When I get below 140, people start asking me if I have an eating disorder, too, despite being in a healthy BMI. It’s always interesting to me how people carry their weight differently.
@meghanjcallahan I’d love to learn more about your journey. How did you achieve your goal weight? I think you look terrific and healthy!1 -

86lbs down, I used to be 5’7 but now since I’ve lost weight I’m 5’8 (measured at the doctors) they said my posture improved due to not carrying all the excess weight!64 -

WOW! Gosh, you're gorgeous in both pictures, but there's no denying how much more confident you come off in the after pic.
Maybe my 5' 5.5" self can squeak out another .5 inches after losing weight so that I'm no longer rounding up to 5'6". If not, oh well, the loss itself will be a major victory!

@imserrano03 This is so very helpful and inspiring! Amazing work! I am 5’7 and I know that at 160 I look healthy, like you do above, and felt just okay about my weight at 150, but I have my current goal set for 145 right now - you may have just convinced me to try for 135, just to see. Thanks for posting!4 -
So I'm 5'6" and just turned 50 so looking to make these years as good as my 30s... fit and fabulous at 50! You guys are so motivational and I'm going to need it next week when I travel to keep me working out and making good choices. No pics but had an amazing day today! My progrss this first month kicked *kitten*!

I know everyone always says that they regret not taking measurements and before pictures at the start of their journey, and I always told myself that I would do that, but it's been 21 days of logging and I haven't done it yet. You've inspired me to take my measurements tonight and do a proper before photo.
Rock on, sister!

Not the best pictures, but am over half way to my goal. 5'6", 36y and mom of 2. Started at 160, although my before photos are more like 155. New photos are 143. My goal is 130-135 range, but fit. I'm getting back into the shape I was in about 4 years ago before depression and back problems hit me.

Don’t have a great “Before” but you get the idea. I am 5’6”. Before is 168, after is 128. ,51 years old.5

You look phenomenal!
Even your skull looks smaller - how does that even happen?

Congratulations!! What a fantastic transformation!
Can you give some details about how you accomplished this? Looks like you work out. At what point did you start lifting/working out and what do you do?
Just wonderful.1
