Today I've realised how well I've actually done.

In February, I weighed 196lbs, was completely unhappy with the way I looked and felt and needed to do something about it. I've done pretty much every single diet under the sun and I've lost a few pounds here and there but nothing that I wouldn't put back on within a few weeks, plus about another 5lbs with it. I found the myfitnesspal app and found myself becoming a bit addicted with weighing all my foods and logging everything, and now I have lost a total of 27lbs. Those 27lbs may not be huge for some people, but to me, they are the start of a whole new journey. I now weigh 169lbs (getting into the 160's was the absolute highlight of my year so far, not seen them in about 3 years) and want to get down to about 147lbs. I've gone from being obese to slightly overweight, a size 16/18 - L/XL (UK) to a comfortable 14 & a medium. My confidence is slowly coming back and I don't feel like I have to cram every morsel of food I see into my mouth. Here's to the next 22lbs!! :happy:
