Finally Reached My Goal Weight



Recommended Posts

Finally got the last stubborn pound off and made it to my goal weight of 130 lbs. 🙂 I've lost all 143 lbs of my excess weight. Never thought that I could do that. Quite an accomplishment.

Went from 273 lbs in 2015 to 130 yesterday. I'm my ideal weight. Now I'm like, "To maintain or not to maintain at this weight?"

Just debating on if I should add a 10 lb gap just in case of regain. Thinking maybe, but I dunno. Finally got here after a week of being stalled out. I don't have a before picture... At least not a full body one, because I hated my body back then so full body pictures were as existent as mythical creatures. Sorry, lol even though I came off as being really confident to people who met me back then, I wasn't. I'm also trying lighter colored clothes because they're not within my comfort zone. I always thought light clothes made me look bigger.

I always wanted to wear clothes like the ones in this picture when I was in my teens and early twenties. I couldn't til now. I'm 28 going on 29 and decided to have my fun with different styles of clothing.

You look absolutely fantastic! These stories make my decision feel so much less terrifying because I want THAT. Feeling good, being proud, and wearing clothes that make me happy instead of make me look less big. Congrats on your success :)

If you don't mind, what kind of exercise do you typically do?

I play a sport every week. When the weather gets better, I go for long walks. Other than that, I switch between running and jogging at the gym when I have the opportunity to go. Everything else that has helped me has been mostly through dieting. 🙂

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
