UN: Akerra27 Weigh in week 1/Saturday 250.4

Hello Guys 😎 My name is Akerra. I am 33 and have worked as a CNA for 13 years. My original journey I started in 2016 I went from right at 340 down to 220 give or take. Thinking I was able to manage on my own I quit using MFP a year ago and have gained around 35 pounds back. ☹😫 I used this challenge before for about 6…

You only fail when you stop trying.

About me: HW: 339.5 lbs CW: 219.2 lbs STG: 209 lbs LTG: 190 lbs maybe more idk Height: 5"9 Age: 31 Exercise preference: hiking/lifting Exercise goal: learn everything about proper weight lifting and be consistent with it. Diet: caveman lol

You can do this! Take it one day at a time. If you slip up start again.

Get a routine, the first 6-8 weeks is the hardest, set specfic times to eat and stick to it during this time you will need to tweak what you personally need. Over time it will become easier and easier. Make exercise a rountine like your job or like brushing your teeth that it just comes naturally. Refigure your BMR every 5…

Besides being cold that's already mentioned I would have to say being able to call shot gun. Or when I am out of town with friends in say a beach front condo and there is only 1 bed, being able to call dibs. My friends joke with me alot on how I can no longer get by with it. I forsee next summer shoved in the back and…

Thank you guys! If you would like to see the video version I uploaded my video a week ago on youtube under Akerra Nicholson.

I would reward myself with certain material things after reaching certain goals. But the best thing that kept me motivated was the people that wanted to see me fail. (Well in my mind they wanted to see me fail...possibly they wasn't but I ran with it)

Freaking awesome!!!

I plan on making a couple quick youtube videos explaining everything I did and how I did it. Check in a week or so. Going to just use my regular channel Akerra Nicholson.

Ty guys! The video form is on my page if you would like to see. It may be easier.

Believing in yourself enough and knowing you are worth it. Being positive about everything and I mean everything.

Very much so!!

*Youtube motivational speakers *Developing everything including exercise, packaging food into a routine *Sad to say this but I had to become selfish. My focus the last 5 1/2 months has been on me. *Cut negative people out of my life in 2 seconds without second guessing. *Ingoring jealous people, comments, judgement about…

Btw it knocked that plateau within a couple of days

I have PCOS. I have had a very successful loss of 85 so far. Just got stuck and went and seen a trainer he set me up with carb cycling and added in strength training. He switched alot of stuff up. I document everything i do on MFP if you wanna add me and take a peak.

I needed to lose 135-140. 85 achieved so far lets get it B)

Hey!! I am 31 I have had PCOS diagnosed since i was 20. I have had a very successful loss so far of 85 pounds. Feel free to add me and take a look at my diary. Good Luck you can do this!! I also started Jan 14th of this year...you can really do this!!

I also had to lose 130 if not more. Currently down 80 in 5 months do not give up! Trust the process and even more trust yourself that you can do it!

Looking flippin fantastic!! Keep up the great work!!

TY guys!! I will be honest I don't think I lost weight any slower due to having PCOS. My doctor when I began warned me that having PCOS that it will be slower. I beg to differ. I have seen no evidence that having PCOS has slowed my weight loss in anyway. If you are honest with yourself and work hard everyday mentally and…

Skinny jeans=)

Pure determination

Whey protein isolate! =)

At 70 pounds down...I will say the hardest time for me was the first 6-7 weeks. During this time you are adjusting to portions along with trying to find a schedule, foods etc that work for you. While trying to fight off cravings. Keep at it! Just stay CONSISTENT and I promise you everything gets easier. You will find…

For myself I do 5 small meals per day. I find this paired with a time schedule has worked the best for me. I do a semi big breakfast protein shake for lunch and big dinner then 2 snacks normally high protein.
