edited November 2024 in Success Stories
It's been awesome reading everyone's success stories, so I figured I would add one of my own. In just a shade over 10 months, I've dropped from 351 lbs to 202 lbs. I have added a link with a picture of me yesterday holding up a pair of pants I used to wear at my heaviest. I have gone from 48x29 to 34x29. I'm hoping in the next couple of weeks that I reach my goal weight of 200 lbs (lower if I can get there!). I look forward to reading more of your success stories and hope I can inspire some more people!

    Thank you all so much! As of today, I passed my goal weight. It was 200 lbs and when I stepped on this morning, I was at 199.5 lbs! I'm absolutely ecstatic because I NEVER thought I would weigh that again! You guys make this achievement that much more awesome! :) I wish everyone the best of luck on their journeys and if I can offer anyone advice or support, let me know!

    I cut my portion sizes down, eliminated regular soda (a diet soda here and there) and started exercising 5-6 days a week. I started with walking and gradually built up from there. Now I can run 3-5 miles (possibly more) and I feel great! I also took up strength training as well.
