I've reached the 180's that I haven't seen in years!

-

I broke into the 180's and I am so thrilled!

I don't necessarily have a goal weight, I'm older now and my body type has changed into a more womanly figure, so reverting back to high school weight I risk looking too thin I think. I've been struggling between 195-210 for years, I just couldn't break it. I'd lose weight, I'd be so close to seeing the 180's again, then I'd "reward" myself and get back into the horrible eating habit, and it was a vicious cycle.

​

I'm fairly recently out of a long-term relationship and getting out of an unhealthy relationship, something clicked. My "habit" of eating, was eating out of comfort because of my depression. Depression from a toxic relationship. I have realized many things since the break-up and they are all extremely positive and healthy realizations, my eating habit being one of them.

This morning, I stepped on the scale and it read 188. ONE-FREAKING-EIGHTY-EIGHT! SO stoked, SO excited, and extremely driven to keep up my healthier eating lifestyle and exercise lifestyle. I'm excited that both my mental health and physical health are improving step-by-step and day-by-day!

​

Well, that is all I really wanted to say, I just wanted to share my excitement of seeing the 80's again even if it isn't a major weight loss yet!

I've lurked on here for awhile but never posted. Seeing all the changes you guys made helped my girlfriend and I finally start thinking about our health and the future. We we're around 280-270 at 5ft 8in. We promised to lose weight in January and decided to run with it. After looking at all the different ways people lost weight, we decided that trying to go vegetarian and counting calories would probably work the best. We limited ourselves to 1600 calories a day and kept at it. I eventually went back to meat simply because the vegetarian meat substitute was starting to get expensive (I can buy chicken patties and get twice as much for the same price). We haven't exercised one bit but we are looking forward to hiking and doing more Sports this summer. I used to BMX race when I was younger and I really want to get back to doing that or mountain biking. The biggest hurdle for me to get over was to stop stress-eating. I've had long standing issues with some mild depression

In desperate need for support

Hello everyone. This is my first time posting on this thread, but I'm in desperate need for support. Please. I'm 26/f. In 2014 I weighed 200 lbs. at that time I decided to make drastic changes to my eating habits and begin exercising. I gradually dropped more and more weight, with some setback of course, until I reached my lowest weight of 140 lbs last summer. At the time I had done keto for about 8 months (with some short breaks from it). Last year, I was also diagnosed with PCOS and started treatment. I stopped keto and included fruit and veggies, oats and other carbs in my diet. All was well until December of 2018. Yes, I'd gained about 5 lbs but still looked and felt fine. I'm not sure what exactly happened. Obviously at some point I must have lost control over my eating and exercise, but I've gained a lot more than I would want to. Today I weighed myself at 152 lbs and measured my waist - almost 3 inches more. Now I realize that it may not sound like a hug
