I’ve lost a significant amount of weight twice. I went from 230 lbs to 180 lbs on two occasions over the past 2-3 years. The world felt different; people were nicer, and I noticed more interest from women (Coming from a person who was originally 300 lbs, this was a dream come true lol) My confidence and self-esteem improved, even though I still had some stomach fat.
Currently, I’m at 190 lbs and aiming to reach 170 or 165 lbs, I want to get rid of all my stomach fat. I used to work out a lot, but now I mainly focus on dieting and walking more, like walking to work. This approach has helped me lose weight, but I should probably get back to the gym before summer starts up again.
I’ll be 21 next year, and I’m excited. I was stuck at 230 lbs for over a year, which honestly sucked, I really missed feeling good about myself. I plan to reach my goal of 165 lbs in the next 3-4 months. I’ve never been this weight before, and it’s going to feel so surreal to have a flat stomach. Anyway, I would love to hear your stories!
Honestly, I don’t feel like it’s made really that much difference in my life except that I don’t worry about my health like I used to.
I’m currently under 155 lbs. At my heaviest, I was 230 lbs. 75 lbs difference.
Other differences I’ve noticed:
Same boat. I went from 350 down to about 190 and I’ve been hovering around there for a while (haven’t really tried like I did initially). I can’t really say people are that much nicer to me, but maybe I’m just too autistic to notice IDK. I can do a pushup now, but for the same reasons.
