Great job girl! How long it takes and what diet you follow?... tell me some information please. I start my journey November 2019 at 270lb and now at 232lb but I don’t feel any different at that point, hope to reach 160lb by next November, you really inspired me .

Congratulations on your progress! It took me a year to lose the first 100lbs and I wasnt following any certain diet but I drastically lowered my sugar intake, as I have a sweet tooth, and 3 months into my journey I started calorie counting. I had no idea I was eating so many excess calories so it was eye opening. I try to meal prep dinners every week and this has helped me maintain. I started off with the usual chicken and brown rice but after a while of cooking I found more recipes that I liked. I am a foodie at heart and always will be. This lifestyle is still challenging for me but I'm now on almost 3 years of learning to maintain and that is the hardest part. I started weight lifting and doing less cardio and gained 25lbs over the course of a year. I am trying to be a mindful eater so that I dont rely on calorie counting because it became a crutch for me. Slowly but surely I'm getting there and I'm sure you're doing great also!
