Ht. 5'7", Start: 225 lb, Today: 208 lb, Goal: 175 lb - i haven't been on here since... like the beginning of May. wow. Well i was dieting a lot then, nothing much happened, lost like 4 pounds so i was at about 215. then i fell off that boat and regained about 2. so i was at 217, then my boyfriend of 16 months dumped me. you'd think i'd be depressed and eat myself HUGE but surprisingly, i didnt, i just dont have an appetite, i eat something 2 times a day, anything i want, i dont get hungry until like 8-9 hours after ive eaten so maybe my stomach has shrunk? either way, its been about 3 weeks and i've lost 8 pounds by not doing anything? haha and it just keeps coming off. i think ill put some exercise in there too maybe that will help. Its just hard to believe i was 225 in january, and i yoyo'd until now and i never thought id be under 215, because thats where it stayed. and i look slim. im big boned and muscular (i know everyone uses that excuse, but still its true) so i have a flat stomach i just have some extra flab i wanna get rid of, i think my goal of 175 is too low, maybe i should aim for 180-185, id look healthy. anyways i just thought id share my happiness with everyone! and by the way, if anyone ever gets dumped, whether u've been dating for 2 weeks or 2 years, just think positive. if i hadnt been focusing on the fact that i was losing weight and getting noticed, then i'd be a depressed wreck. good luck everyone! you can all do it.
