I'm 88lbs from my highest weight, but just like weight loss isn't linear, weight gain isn't either. I was probably between 170-180 in high school. Went up to 212 after high school. Back down to 180 after a year. 2 years later I was up to 260! The following near-decade was a mashup of losing and gaining. 230, 199, 220, 212,…

Thank you so much guys❤️❤️❤️

Christmas came early! Xmas goal to get into size 10 was achieved today! Gratuitous changing room shots of said size 10s, and a medium dress that I didn't even have to unzip!

5'10", 173-174 the last couple weeks and in a relatively loose size 12, though I can squeeze into a 10. My first goal was to be in a healthy range before we started trying to have kids in January. Done! My next, since I hit that early, is to be in a comfy size 10 at Christmas. If I don't get pregnant immediately I plan on…

When I changed how I ate dramatically (went from eating whatever to a very strict elimination diet for medical reasons) my normally clear skin was broken out for 2 weeks straight. It settled down after that though.

Thanks everyone! Things have slowed down the last few months so it's nice to remind myself how far i've come. I'm still trending down, just very slowly now (about 6-7lbs in the last 2 months compared to the y'know, 8-9 I was doing a month before) Such is the nature of the beast.

The internal work that comes with losing weight. This last time, I didn't screw around. I got serious with myself about why I had quit in the past, and what I was afraid of. I had some seriously upsetting come to jesus talks with myself about this deep set fear of people seeing me actually TRY at something, rather than…

I'll probably deal with it the same way i'm dealing with thanksgiving, and the same way I dealt with our vacation a month ago. 1. Focus on what i'm eating for several weeks before hand, and stick to good choices. Do all the work before the actual day. 2. Day OF, enjoy myself but don't go all crazy. Eat foods I am allowed…

For a long time the only time I noticed a change was when I'd put on my old clothes, or when my current clothes didn't fit well anymore. It's a bizarre thing to still feel and look like your same old shape, but you know your clothes are way too big now. That was because my shape itself didn't change much. I've been losing…

From my highest weight, i'm 3lbs away from having lost a newborn cow

Just about everything I made tonight for thanksgiving is from Pinterest, I'd try there.

I'm going to visit my huge family who are all making their own dishes to bring. I'm bringing healthy-ish sides, (roasted sweet potatoes and carrots, fresh herb mashed potatoes, mini shepherd's pies, pumpkin pie dip and black bean/avocado brownies) and I plan on eating a bit of what I bring, and some tasty meat, and a…

Most days I eat jasmine rice topped with turkey bacon, 1 egg, green onions and gluten free soy sauce. I change it up sometimes, gluten free cereal with almond milk, 2 egg omelet with bacon, avocado, tomato and salsa verde with skillet potatoes, usually using up whatever leftovers I have around. Breakfast tacos are a…

That's awesome, I'm gonna get there soon and that doesn't seem real most of the time either!

It's vaguely set to 160. My "goal" was to get inside a healthy bmi before January (when we're going to start trying to have kids). I'm small boned so I could theoretically lose another 30lbs, but I don't really care, I think I'd be perfectly happy in 160s or a size 8, whichever happens first. I have a feeling once I get…

I'd like to break into the 160s by January! Things have slowed down a lot. I also plan to pick up some heavy weights soon

I went from that 225 pic to 211 just because I had surgery 2 months after that photo was taken and was sick from all the meds. I lost from 211-203 summer before last in about 3 months, but stopped and over the next year went back to 211. Part of why I lost so little in those 3 months was an undiagnosed autoimmune disease.…

Any kind of red I have every tried in my life gives me a headache within 20 minutes of one sip of the stuff. I don't really like the taste anyway, i'll stick to whiskey. :)

Wow lots of wine drinkers here! How do you guys do it?? Wine gives me the most godawful headaches :( I don't drink much at all, sorry. If I do, it's sipping on whiskey, at the most maybe 3 ounces, and maybe once a month if that.

Found an old photo where I can finally say "holy crap, yeah, there's a big difference!" 225 173

Old photo I found yesterday really shows me the difference! 225lbs 173!

The only things I have to avoid are gluten and dairy for uh, gastrointestinal reasons. All my giant family are all bringing their own dishes, so I plan on bringing some safe versions of things I know I want to eat. But I'm not too worried about over eating, my appetite is a lot smaller than it used to be, and I don't…

Thanks! I'm nothing if not stubborn :)

Holy crap you guys. I've been stuck at a stall in my weight for around 2 months. This morning I broke through it, so feeling good, I went to old navy while I was out today to try on some size 10 jeans. Getting into a 10 is my Christmas goal. Since my 12s are comfy now, I just wanted to see how far I had left to go. Well…

I don't know about cups because I measure mine in grams, but I eat 100-160 grams of rice 3-4 mornings a week for breakfast (with turkey bacon, an egg, gluten free soy sauce and green onions, 300-400 calories, depending) since May. I also eat gluten free hamburger buns 1-2 times a week with delicious home made burgers. I'm…

I'm feeling a little bit of this lately. I've been pretty bummed out that for almost 2 months i've been stuck between 179 and 176, kind of bouncing all over the place. Granted, in the last 2 months "life happened", two family members passed away, I had an unexpected surgery, I went on a vacation, I quit my job and am…

Depends how much you have to lose sometimes. I used to think I was stuck with mine because from 260 to about 211 they didn't budge at all. Then suddenly I lose 6 inches off my chest in 2-3 months going from 211 to 187ish. I'm at 176 now and I'm almost ready to call it 7 inches. Gone from a 38dd ( which should have been…

jasmine rice, 2 slice of turkey bacon chopped up, one egg, green onions and a tsp of gluten free soy sauce. I eat this for breakfast at least 2-3 times a week.

I have a goal date and a goal weight, but only because my goal was to be inside a healthy BMI before we start trying to have kids in january. I'm currently 3lbs away from being just inside the healthy range, which I should hit easily by the end of november, and i'd be nice to get another 5lbs into it before january. But I…

i'm 5'10" with a small frame, and carry weight in my chest and hips. I started out years ago in 20s at 260 I was in 18s from about 230-200. This was frustrating. This time around in weight loss, starting at 211, I didn't go buy new pants until I was around 193ish, and I skipped over 16s all together and into 14s. I wear…
