Too nervous to show people I know, so you all get to see the results of my first 30 days. SW left 317lbs, CW right 295lbs. Currently living 20:4 with OMAD plans by month 3ish.
Okay, so you guys are officially my heros 😭 It's been hard for sure lol. I'm currently only watching my intake since I have a bad habit of rewarding working out with food, so the gym won't happen until I stick to the momentum I've found for a couple more months. As for things I noticed this month: My bra is comfier lol, I can actually bend down without gasping like a dying fish, my skin doesn't hate me anymore, I sweat less (which is stunning), and honestly I'm feeling much more confident. I'm working towards and sticking with a goal, and I'm hoping hitting my goal weight next year will be my birthday present to me ☺ I can't bring this weight into my 30's, so it's now or never.
Edit: My bra is from Torrid! We live for Torrid bras in this household!
E2: Well kids, I guess the ole, "not showing people I know" thing is out the window 😂 Thank you all for the support, some of my friends now know and are also mvp supporters 👍
E3: Girl it's not that deep. Am I standing farther from the mirror? Yes. Did I realize that when I took the pic? Nope. Am I trying to swindle you into thinking I'm smaller than I am? No, because karma doesn't pay my bills and only I have to live in this shell 😂 But all the dms calling me hot, thank you good dudes! A compliment is a compliment!
Hey, I hope you don’t find this weird, but I looked through your post history and as someone who also suffers from depression, I know firsthand that losing weight can relieve some of the mental stress we go through. It doesn’t cure it by any means (my depression actually started when I was at my lowest weight, and from there I started gaining). But weight loss has been proven to relieve some of the symptoms and help you feel better about yourself! Starting this journey is a big step for you, and I’m glad you’re taking the actions towards a healthier lifestyle and I’m glad you’re learning to love yourself. Life can suck but the best way to push through it is to say a big “fuck you” to life and prove you’re stronger than your depression. You’ve got this!!! Show us what you’re made of, and keep on pushing!

Good job. Every pound is one that you won’t see again. With your level of determination you can do this!
