I Lost 100 Pounds in 1.5 Years
I was just replying to a different post when I clued in on having completely not noticed the wildest milestone yet.
End of January of 2019, the doctor weighed me at 276 pounds. This morning, the scale said 176.
100 freaking pounds! That's objectively a lot of pounds. Hell after 4 months of gym shut down, I can't even lift that anymore. But also that puts me at 18 year old me's weight. Like time travel.
I don't exercise much, tbh. I was going to the gym twice a week for like a year but when it closed I basically did nothing. I can't exercise at home, the mental block is too huge. But still, despite that, I've continued dropping roughly 1 lb per week these last few months.
Sort of. I lost nothing at all in June, plateauing for 5 to 6 weeks. But this week I suddenly started dropping half a pound a day and now it's all averaged out. Bodies are weird like that.
I don't eat "healthy." I don't pay attention to my macros. I eat chocolate every day and fast food or pizza every couple weeks. I do watch my nutrition to make sure I'm getting enough vitamins at least. I eat 1400-1500 calories a day.
I am living breathing proof that calorie is king.
My goal is 150. I'm practically there. Maybe I'll go a little further, but I never wanted to be skinny, just healthy.
If my lazy, chocoholic ass can do this. I really believe anyone can.
