2013 transformation! 230 pounds to 154 pounds! In the before pictures my pants aren’t below my stomach like in the after. 14 more pounds until my ugw! 2013 was my year and I plan to make 2014 mine  too. Not only have I lost 76 pounds but I’ve become so much more outgoing. I’m not the quiet person in the corner all the time now.
Super excited for the new year.

 

H: 5”8
SW: 161lbs
CW: 124lbs

Me again haha - I’ve posted before but so proud of where I’ve gotten to after 26 weeks of hard work! Looking back, I piled on the pounds during a difficult period of my life during which I turned to comfort eating to brighten my day without really realising.
I’m just working on maintenance at this stage, but I have no real urge to eat the way I did before (processed/refined stuff, pasta, pastries etc etc), and still live by the 8 hour diet with no dairy, wheat or gluten, which is definitely something I’d recommend to anyone stuck in a plateau (of which I had about four).
Thank you all, you’ve been inspiring
 

 

This is exactly one year since I began my weight loss journey.  For everyone who thought new years resolutions were impossible, I can assure you that’s not true.

I lost my weight by eating sensibly.  More whole foods: fruits, lean meats, and a lot of veggies.  I also allowed myself to eat junk food occasionally and in moderation.  I started out by exercising 3 times a week for 30 minutes at a time and found that I really love it.  Now I go 6 days a week for roughly an hour.

I’m not saying I was perfect, I messed up a lot, but I always picked up and moved on.

I’m not concerned with end weight, just where my body feels comfortable but I am hoping to get my current 28% body fat down to roughly 20%.  (I’m 5’10” by the way!)

Stay well lovelies! 

 

 

Left - start of 2013 - under eating, overtraining, self loathing
Right - end of 2013 - sensible training, 1800-2200 calories a day, self loving!

I know it’s a different before and after but it’s important to me :) like so many people on here I had a successful weight loss before and after but I took it too far. I lost 10kg and went to drastic measures to try and lose more. I never want to be that person again.

In the left I am 66kg. In the right I am 67.5kg. I am 5’11” :)

 

 

Dear all,

From 1st of July to 1st of October 2013, I lost 5 kg (11 lbs). I know it doesn’t sound like much but it has been a real struggle and I feel you can really see a difference, because I’m only 161 cm (5.28 ft). I eliminated a lot of dairy and refined sugars and did a lot more strength training (mainly Power Plate and TRX). I am following something similiar to the 5:2 diet and also try to IF within a day. I have a LOT of cheat meals and you can tell, but at least I keep my exercise consistent and never let things go too much out of hand. 

I want to lose another 5 kg (11 lbs) until my birthday in May 2014 and most importantly go down in body fat percentage. I hope that posting this will motivate me and keep me accountable. 

Thanks to all of you who share their tips and journeys.

This is what I needed this is what I like to call progress no it isn’t abs but it is improvement and that’s what I’m going for. The scale may keep doing the same thing but idc I can see a difference and that is all that matters to me I have all kinds of self confidence now that I can officially say I see a difference!!! 

Before: 172.4

During: 159.4

UGW:140-150

5’9

 

 

Height: 5’7”

This picture is so emotional for me.
This whole journey didn’t start out as a weight loss mission, although I had hoped losing weight would be a benefit from it. My mental health was worsening and I had been struggling with depression for years.

Back in July I had made a promise: to take care of myself in every way possible. I sought out what I could control in my life, worked on changing my thoughts and how I viewed myself, and started taking care of my body. And I’m so happy I stuck with it even when it got emotionally difficult.

I used to think that I would never post a picture with so much skin showing. But I love both of these pictures here, even though I hated the first one in the beginning. Part of me wants to go back and give my old-self the biggest hug possible.

I’m always looking for new friends on this journey, so feel free to say hi! ^_^ My favorite part about tumblr is meeting and talking with people who are also seeking to better themselves. This community has been so, so encouraging! :)
 

 

September 2012 (Left)- Before - at 243 (my highest and right before I began my weightloss journey)
to
May 2013 (Right)- During - at 215

Right now I am currently at 206.6lbs as of this morning and still going. :) I did it all through cleaning up the way I ate - more lean/white meats and fish like chicken, tilapia, salmon, flounder, more fruits and veggies, and less junk food & no fast food/soda. I also started a kickboxing group - going 2-3 times a week. 

The last 2-3 weeks have been lacking for me - I have been maintaining my weight for a month now thankfully, but with the holidays comes lots of sweets and not so good foods, but I am still maintaining :). I also had the stomach flu for a week and lost 4lbs (easiest weight ever lost but not healthy!) but thankfully I gained it back and now can work on losing it the right way. 

I posted my facial progression a few weeks ago and figured I’d post a during progression of my body. Follow me on instagram @onmywaytofit29 for motivation, inspiration, and to track my journey! 

 

 

Facial comparison: Summer 2011 (206) vs Summer 2013 (170). I started my journey Spring 2012; I’ve fluctuated around 170 for the past six months. Sometimes I get discouraged with where I’m at in terms of progress but looking back at where I was, I see I’ve come quite far. I still have a ways to go, but I’m excited for getting back on track!
