I've officially lost 50lbs :)
Just done my weekly weigh in and 2lbs off taking me to 50.

Only half way to where I want to be ultimately but just wanted to share my news with someone Smile

Amazing, what an achievement. You should be so proud. 🎉🥳

That's amazing, well done you!

That is awesome and it IS life-changing. It's a total reset. My DS was always quite overweight since early childhood. Last year, he embarked on an exercise regime and began eating really wholesome foods, smaller portions, no junk food. The results have been superb and transformative. The confidence this has given him is priceless. And he looks SO well! My point is, congratulations, OP!!! I feel utterly delighted for you on your behalf. It is a wonderful, wonderful feeling and an incredible accomplishment! Keep on going!

Oh wow, wow, wow! Congratulations - I know how hard it is to lose weight (I say this as someone who is starting yet another diet today) and to have achieved that is amazing!

I so hope you're feeling incredible and incredibly proud of yourself!
