AHey all,

I'm new here so thought I'd make up a thread about my previous progress. I've been obese since I was about 11/12, I have always been a lot taller and bigger framed then everyone else my age, struggled with clothes even special ordered school uniform as even in primary school I was 5'9!

I've done all the usual faddy diets and things and ended up gaining a lot of weight! They don't call it yoyo for nothing! My peak weight 270lbs! I'm 6ft and plenty people say I can carry it off but that's people just trying to make me feel better!

I lost a fair bit easy over the first half of 2011 just healthy eating and exercise then I began to maintain, let my body adjust to my new size. Christmas is always a hard time for me, I'm useless when it comes to temptation & emotional eating!

Here's my comparison photo! Quite the difference don't you think.

I'll update this with new photos as I loose more weight.

My goal is 180lbs! Still a way to go yet but I will get there :)
 
Great Work!! I like the fact that you are taking a break and maintaining and the fact that you accept that you probably won't make any progress during the holidays. I think that is what worked for me too. If I tried to fool myself into thinking I could forge through anything then I was just setting myself up for failure and sometimes surrender. Plateaus are natural. You may need to change one little thing with your exercise or food regimen to get over it but that's what this is all about...change!! Go Girl!
 
AI'd love to just go flat out and loose loads fast but I'd end up with excess flabby skin I couldn't do anything about and that would leave me just as self conscience so I'm on 2lbs a week but occasional maintenance weeks/months with plenty of resistance training to keep toned! :D
 
Kepp it up! and you really do carry your weight well, theyr not just saying that. WHY do you look so damn good at 244!? lol we all wish we could look that good at that weight...either weight really.
