Before: 5’4 268 pounds.
Current: 5’4 172 pounds.
Total loss: 96 pounds.
I haven’t been this size since at least my freshman year of high school if not earlier. I remember getting on a scale during my junior year of high school and the scale saying 235 pounds and I told myself that was normal even though it wasn’t. I kept getting bigger and I allowed myself to think that was okay and not see a problem with my weight. Looking back on it now, I’m mortified of the person I used to be and refuse to ever go back. These before and after’s are such a crucial part in my weight loss journey in that they remind me on a daily basis of who I was and who I used to be.
I’m currently in the process of switching from low-carb to low-calorie. 1200 a day but still keeping a very close eye on my carb intake. I’m also in the process of training for my very first 5k, running at least 3-5 days a week.
Anyone that tells you that you can’t is lying, you can do it. Find the motivation in yourself or through someone else and make your first move.
