Well done on your weight loss.

Is comparing yourself to others going to be helpful though?

I lost my weight by reducing my TDEE by 20% and getting a weight loss calorie target and then logging everything I ate & drank on My Fitness Pal so I could keep a track of my calories throughout the day. Lost around 4 stone, and have kept it off by continuing to track my maintenance calories on MFP each day.

Was 17st 1lb ten weeks ago, now am 15st 8lbs. I didnt really focus on my diet much in terms of portions but focused on higher quality foods, proteins, quality carbs etc. plus only do 10 mins exercise a day but its very intense 10 mins and its worked a treat! Its manageable as its easy to fit into a busy day and im not restricting my foods

At my heaviest (May 2018) I was 20 stone 9 lbs. Now,I'm 13 stone 9 lbs. I lost 5 stone through diet alone,then another 2 stone with Wegovy/Ozempic. I've gone from a size 24 to a 16. I'm hoping to lose another 3 stone.

I went from 14st 8lbs to 9st 2lbs. Yoga every day and eating whole foods. No snacking at all. I also gained a lot of muscle throughout the journey.

I was 14st 7 and am now 9st 4. Lost via Mounjaro since September last year and now I’m off the medication and maintaining (although have lost more than intended and still going down so need to up calories a bit, which is a wild concept to me!)

Snapespeare · 28/04/2025 22:40

My heaviest weight was post lockdown 19 stone. I've rollercoasted with weight all my adult life. I started Mounjaro in September last year weighing 17st 8. Currently 13st 8 and hope to settle around 11st 12.

I have an autism spectrum condition. I have tried every diet under the sun and just needed something to help me realise I can leave food on my plate because I'm full, I don't need to eat my emotions and that I can enjoy exercise.
