    Progress— size 14 to size 4, 197 pounds to 130

    I feel like I should expand for people who lurk like I do. I got my healthy motivation from this specific sub but I got a lot of unhealthy motivation in high school from online too. Depriving yourself of calories will absolutely make you lose weight. But skinny =/= healthy. You will have bags...

    @ezra21 I had an eating disorder in high school (bulimia) that left me very thin but not at all healthy looking. My skin hung in sags and my face looked kind of hallow. My goal from the get go this time was to be healthy. I literally wanted people to look at me think I looked healthy. I just...

    @meliz It was literally this subreddit that got me going for real this time!! I can remember the specific post even! She went from 300 down to 150 and talked about how her first mile was 17 minutes, and that she went from a frapp habit to black coffee and now physically cannot stand the taste of...

    @dawn16 I don’t. I was really really worried about that too but I did it slow and steady, plus the strength part of the kettle bell helps I think. And a ton of moisturizer. So much moisturizer.

    @thehindubrahmin I don’t weigh myself. I shouldn’t be given access to a scale. I will check constantly. I know my size and my measurements and can ballpark my weight, but that’s it. My mom is obsessed with her weight. Like, pounding on the bathroom door while you’re taking a shower because she...

    @thehindubrahmin Also, when at the doctor, I will climb on the scale backwards and ask them not to tell me. They’re always very accommodating. I’ll ask if I’m a healthy weight and that’s it. It doesn’t matter how happy I am with my body in the morning, if I discover my weight in the afternoon...

    I hope I did this right! Starting weight was 197, size 14. 5’3 for reference. I didn’t diet at all. I made significant lifestyle changes. I ate fast food once a day at my peak weight, plus multiple sodas. I was very sedentary. I started slow. I cut out soda except for one a week, and...
