| I went from 200lb to 112lb in a year! Some things I learned. Posted: 13 Jun 2021 08:44 AM PDT Hi all, I'm really chuffed that I managed to lose 88lb (44% of my body weight) over the last year so I thought I'd share some things that worked for me in case they're useful for anyone else too! Of course ymmv. Progress pic here if anyone's interested. Ignore the disgraceful mess, I fully expected to fail and never have any reason to share it.
Also being short sucks! It's so much harder to maintain a decent deficit. Solidarity to all the other short women trying to lose weight, you're absolute troopers. [link] [comments] |
| I have an addiction. I am a binge eater. Posted: 13 Jun 2021 10:28 PM PDT Ever since I was a young kid, I would eat well beyond being full. I couldn't eat half or three quarters. I had to eat all of it. I felt consumed by whatever I was eating. I cannot enjoy a small quantity because my mind obsesses about what is left. The other night I was in the Jack in the Box drive through waiting to order while I was eating leftover pizza. It sounds crazy. I was 425lbs in 2018 and got down to 330lbs by 2019, but I couldn't get any lower. I'd workout 5 days a week and watch what I ate, but fall into a binge episode that would wipe out my entire week's work. I gained 50lbs in 3 months last year. I am now around 370lbs. I am venting, but any serious advice is welcomed. I know how to lose weight. I know what my issues are, but I am just incapable of controlling myself. I feel like a person on My 600lb Life. I may need professional help. [link] [comments] |
| Day 1? Starting your weight loss journey on Monday, 14 June 2021? Start here! Posted: 13 Jun 2021 09:31 PM PDT Today is your Day 1? Welcome to r/Loseit! So you aren't sure of how to start? Don't worry! "How do I get started?" is our most asked question. r/Loseit has helped our users lose over 1,000,000 recorded pounds and these are the steps that we've found most useful for getting started. Why you're overweight Our bodies are amazing (yes, yours too!). In order to survive before supermarkets, we had to be able to store energy to get us through lean times, we store this energy as adipose fat tissue. If you put more energy into your body than it needs, it stores it, for (potential) later use. When you put in less than it needs, it uses the stored energy. The more energy you have stored, the more overweight you are. The trick is to get your body to use the stored energy, which can only be done if you give it less energy than it needs, consistently. Before You Start The very first step is calculating your calorie needs. You can do that HERE. This will give you an approximation of your calorie needs for the day. The next step is to figure how quickly you want to lose the fat. One pound of fat is equal to 3500 calories. So to lose 1 pound of fat per week you will need to consume 500 calories less than your TDEE (daily calorie needs from the link above). 750 calories less will result in 1.5 pounds and 1000 calories is an aggressive 2 pounds per week. Tracking Here is where it begins to resemble work. The most efficient way to lose the weight you desire is to track your calorie intake. This has gotten much simpler over the years and today it can be done right from your smartphone or computer. r/loseit recommends an app like MyFitnessPal, Loseit! (unaffiliated), or Cronometer. Create an account and be honest with it about your current stats, activities, and goals. This is your tracker and no one else needs to see it so don't cheat the numbers. You'll find large user created databases that make logging and tracking your food and drinks easy with just the tap of the screen or the push of a button. We also highly recommend the use of a digital kitchen scale for accuracy. Knowing how much of what you're eating is more important than what you're eating. Why? This may explain it. Creating Your Deficit How do you create a deficit? This is up to you. r/loseit has a few recommendations but ultimately that decision is yours. There is no perfect diet for everyone. There is a perfect diet for you and you can create it. You can eat less of exactly what you eat now. If you like pizza you can have pizza. Have 2 slices instead of 4. You can try lower calorie replacements for calorie dense foods. Some of the communities favorites are cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles, spaghetti squash in place of their more calorie rich cousins. If it appeals to you an entire dietary change like Keto, Paleo, Vegetarian. The most important thing to remember is that this selection of foods works for you. Sustainability is the key to long term weight management success. If you hate what you're eating you won't stick to it. Exercise Is NOT mandatory. You can lose fat and create a deficit through diet alone. There is no requirement of exercise to lose weight. It has it's own benefits though. You will burn extra calories. Exercise is shown to be beneficial to mental health and creates an endorphin rush as well. It makes people feel *awesome* and has been linked to higher rates of long term success when physical activity is included in lifestyle changes. Crawl, Walk, Run It can seem like one needs to make a 180 degree course correction to find success. That isn't necessarily true. Many of our users find that creating small initial changes that build a foundation allows them to progress forward in even, sustained, increments. Acceptance You will struggle. We have all struggled. This is natural. There is no tip or trick to get through this though. We encourage you to recognize why you are struggling and forgive yourself for whatever reason that may be. If you overindulged at your last meal that is ok. You can resolve to make the next meal better. Do not let the pursuit of perfect get in the way of progress. We don't need perfect. We just want better. Additional resources Now you're ready to do this. Here are more details, that may help you refine your plan.

| Posted: 13 Jun 2021 10:59 PM PDT I've recently figured out that exercising is not really my thing and forcing myself to do things I don't truly enjoy makes me self sabotage at least twice a week. However, I really love walking and was wondering if I could try to make it a habit, at least to have something to do, even if it never evolves into a gym rat lifestyle. I don't like heavy exercise and cardio, but jogging on the treadmill makes me feel good during and afterwards. Is it a realistic goal to set? Going every morning, just to start my day with some physical activity, even if it's just an hour of walking/jogging on top of my calorie deficit? I'm always overly concerned about people at the gym looking at me weird for only doing a certain thing, too. [link] [comments] |

| Anyone else want to just lose weight and that's it? Posted: 13 Jun 2021 08:11 AM PDT Tldr are there any people are losing weight for aesthetic purposes only? I see a lot of great posts about losing weight and changing their lifestyle and eating habits. That makes sense, especially if an unhealthy lifestyle led you to gain weight/maintain an unhealthy weight. This subreddit cultivates a great environment. But I wanted to know if there were any people who want to lose weight for aesthetic purposes only, and then plan to maintain it? I'm not an unhealthy person. I can run, jump, fly, whatever, and not lose my breath; I'm flexible; I have decent endurance levels. However, I am overweight and the only thing that bothers me is the way I look. Just wanted to know if others have had this experience! If so, let me know what your journey has been like. Thank you. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 13 Jun 2021 02:29 PM PDT I just need to rant. Quick backstory, I'm 5'7.5, female, and 29. In 2019 I lost 53 pounds going from an even 200 to my lowest of 147. Then, 2020 hit and I struggled a lot. I have gained 21 pounds currently back at 168. I'm now fully vaccinated, back in the office, just got an amazing promotion and decided it's time to buckle down and get back in the routine I had in 2019. With that being said, I'm working out again starting at 3 times a week rotating lifting and cardio and I'm calorie counting again. My general goal is around 1300, but I'll up to 1600 if I'm feeling too tired at the gym. So essentially lower on rest days and higher on exercise days. I also still have cheat days here and there. I'm not overly intense in my opinion. My family and friends of course know I'm working out and are seeing me actively log on my phone before meals. It's not that people aren't supportive… it's more "well how much do you want to lose this time?" My response is always "I'm not quite sure, it's less about the number and more about how I feel and look but I think my goal is around 130. I'm just kind playing it by ear." I keep getting these contradictory responses "well you've lost so much already! 30 more pounds is A LOT! You look great! I can't even tell you've gained anything" and I say "oh well thank you, but I've actually gained 20 pounds" and then get "well you were getting too skinny before! You don't need to lose much.. you look healthy" so I simultaneously don't look like I've gained weight but was also too skinny before? I just want to say you look healthy are some of my least favorite words. Like if were skinny, I would look unhealthy? So I need to be "chubby" so I'll look healthy? My current weight is OVER the recommended weight for my height. On top of the fact that I'm very long legged and gain all my weight in my mid section. Even at 200 pounds, people always commented on my skinny legs. So with my body type I could certainly fall on the lower end of recommended weight and be perfectly healthy. AND 130 isn't even the lowest end for someone of my height. It's just discouraging and annoying for everyone around me to actually know I am taking care of myself but still believe I'll be "too skinny" it I hit my goal weight. I am exercising. I count calories AND macros. I am willing to up my calories when I feel my body needs it. I am not afraid to have a cheat day. I am not starving myself, I am not doing a fad diet, my doctor fully supports my efforts and weight loss and was even impressed that I'm "losing weight the right way" sometimes it just seems like those who aren't willing to try what I'm doing simply don't support me because they are bummed they don't have the motivation to do this themselves. So instead of "congrats! Wish I was that motivated" I'm constantly hit from angles that I'm being too intense, not healthy, too skinny, obsessed with weight loss, etc. like guys, I just calorie count and exercise I'm perfectly healthy.

| Felt like a prisoner in my body before weight loss now I feel like I’m in a strangers body after Posted: 13 Jun 2021 06:09 PM PDT M20, 5'7", SW: 92kg, CW: 69kg/152lbs Not sure how to explain it but before my weight loss of 20kg I literally felt like a prisoner in my body now after the weight is gone I feel like I'm in a strangers body at times it's so weird. Like all this gain of confidence and self love is all of a sudden after I lost the weight is so weird and new to me. I'm not saying it's a bad thing but at times it feels like I'm not a real person you know? I'm not sure if I'm making sense ? I look at old pictures and I can't believe my face looked so chubby, like that couldn't have been me! Now I look at my face and it feels like a stranger looking back at me? But anyways does anyone know how to speed up the process of my mind processing my weight loss because it's starting to bug me out day by day and it literally feels insane no one ever prepares you for this part of weight lossðŸ˜. Does anyone else feel like this after losing weight? (Even if it's not such a drastic amount of weight lost) [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 14 Jun 2021 01:02 AM PDT I feel so ugly and disgusting. My skin is horrible, I feel sick and heavy, my bones hurt, my hair is falling out. I'm on meds for high blood pressure since 16. I fucking despise myself and I look so ugly. Looking at how much my face has swelled makes me want to gag. I used to think it was bad then but it's worse now. I was in the 250's before the pandemic now being home all day for a year has made me in the 280's. I'm almost knocking on the door of 300 and I'm frightened for myself. I just broke down crying because I can't believe how huge my stomach is and it makes me want to gag. My moms trying to help me by taking us out on walks to the park but it's not enough. I cook my meals at home and try to eat healthy but then my mom always brings home bad foods. I slip up. None of it is enough. It's not. I can't bring myself to put in the work because all I do is self loathe. I hate myself so much. I can't even go out in broad daylight that's how disgusting I feel. The thought of people seeing me in public makes me nauseous. I don't know what to do. Nobody had genuinely helped me enough in my life. I have no guidance. I've been severely obese for half my life since 10 now I am 20. Where did it all go wrong. I have so much trauma my body is holding on to all this fat. I'm screaming for help on the inside but nobody understands me. I want to overwork myself and work out for hours and restrict everything or do nothing. I want to go in all or nothing. But I just can't l. I always give up. I have no discipline. I'm so suicidal years of torture. Someone please help me. [link] [comments] |
| Looking for a motivational buddy! Posted: 13 Jun 2021 04:03 PM PDT Hi everyone! I'm hoping to find someone to share my weight loss journey with 💗 it'd be nice if we could share our struggles and successes, swap healthy recipes or workout playlists and encourage each other to get moving on days where it might be hard! A little about me - I'm 26, female, and looking to lose about 40-50lbs. I'm a little shy, but I promise I warm up after a little bit haha! It'd be nice if we had some things in common so here are some things I love- anime/animation in general, Dungeons and Dragons, and indie music 🎶 If you think we might be a good fit and are up for encouraging each other / keeping each other accountable please feel free to inbox me 😊 [link] [comments] |
| I feel better and more energized when I eat less. Posted: 13 Jun 2021 08:19 AM PDT It's a strange and unexpected side effect, but when I manage to not binge my feelings away and just eat three normal meals a day, of which two are small, and I allow myself to really get hungry before the big meal (dinner) - and by hungry I mean not snack my way to dinner from 4pm onwards - then after a day or two of doing this, I actually start feeling more energized. None of that afternoon slump I get after lunch, none of the fatigue in the late morning, no crash after dinner when I have to be cleaning the kitchen and putting the kids to bed but all I want to do is fall down in front of the TV. I guess it makes sense, because now my body can start focusing on doing other stuff, rather than just processing food all the time? Or at least that's what I tell myself is happening.

| Posted: 13 Jun 2021 11:30 PM PDT A year ago I had an epiphany, my weight has stopped me from achieving many of my goals. I, (F21 H:5'1 CW:206 GW:115) have spent so much time wanting to lose weight and not doing it that I have finally improved everything else in my life to the point where weight is all I have left. I have fixed my personality flaws that held me back from making and keeping friends, I have fixed my grades and even managed to get on the Deans list, I have changed the way I view things as black and white. I have changed so much so quickly in the last year, that I have finally hit the last mark that has prevented me from ever achieving my dreams and goals. My weight. I love dancing, swimming and gymnastics but can't even do 5 squats without gasping for air. I can't dance, I have no energy for swimming or gymnastics. I have always had this dream of becoming a professional swimmer, of competing in competitions and winning. I cant do any of this with my current body. I cant even touch my toes properly. I used to sit in my pool for hours trying to imagine how wonderful it would be to be able to swim the butterfly ot breaststroke woth genuine form. I loved watching and attempting to learn dances I saw in music videos and even creating my own. I loved the idea of gymnastics and being able to gracefully throw my body around. But I cant do that. Yet. I decided to finally try to lose weight, so that I can begin actually living my life. I want to stop putting this on pause so I can achieve my goals before I run out of time to do it right. I bit the bullet and took a swimming course last semester in college, and I was horrible, but I was so happy. I was so unbelievably happy. I swam with 7 other people, and was the absolute worst in class with my time being 1:23 compared to the next lowest of 45 seconds. I was so uniquely horrible that everyone had to wait for me to swim across the pool before they could continue their next lap. But I was so happy! They all supported me, my teacher even taught me how to get out of the pool without using my knees to pull myself up! My classmates cheered me on in relays, even though I dragged my teams time down tremendously. One girl would even swim beside me and make sure I didn't give up and doggy paddle to the other side. My teacher told me that the only best that matters is my personal best, and helped me practice after class and gave advice on how to practice outside of class as well. By the end of the semester my time had dropped to 1:05. I was so proud and my teacher encouraged me to keep practicing, because the only way from there on was up. I started exercising, I am currently trying to build up my stamina by doing a simple 5 squats, pushups, burpees and leg-lifts a day, which still has me panting by the end. I have cut out soda and have started my ADHD and Antianxiety medications again to help my mindset be in the best possible place for this journey! I have spent so long procrastinating weight loss that I have little left to improve in myself until I lose weight. I want to be able to live my dream of becoming a professional swimmer, of pole vaulting and gracefully twisting my body and to be able to choreograph and dance the way I have always wanted to. The only thing in my way now is this weight, and this time I will lose it! I would love advice, and maybe a few friends! Thank you for reading my dribble! [link] [comments] |
| Will I get lose skin after weight loss Posted: 13 Jun 2021 09:32 PM PDT will I have loose skin after weight loss and how long will it last. Will my weight loss include a lot of loose skin Will my weight loss include a lot of loose skin I am 15, a boy, 6'1 tall and weight like 315 my goal is to get to 260 by October, 200 by January, and 170 by June next year. Will I have loose skin and if so how much should I expect. And since I am younger will my skin get tighter or will it stay loose even after I'm 18? I know older people get life long loose skin but what about people my age. After loosing the weight can my skin ever look normal compared to somebody who has never been my size?

| Out of my normal routine, not sure how well I'll cope! Posted: 14 Jun 2021 12:59 AM PDT Hello lovely people! This is more of a nervous vent than a request for advice. So, usually I weigh daily and log in Libra. I like to keep on top of the trends, and I have a weird pattern (3-4 day stall, 0.5kg drop 1 day, back up a little bit the next day and cue 3-4 day stall, on a fairly predictable cycle) so I like seeing the daily data so I get to see the lower numbers sometimes and knowing what\s going on! My partner and I are staying with his family for the summer. There are no bathroom scales OR food scales in the house, and I am suddenly not preparing most of my own meals or buying my own ingredients. We are currently self isolating post-travel so can't leave the house, and we are very rural here so it will be a minimum 2-3 weeks before I can even get to a town to stock up. Also someone in the home has a history of ED, so very conscious to not buy anything that might create an atmosphere around food or weight. I'm ANXIOUS about the whole thing, I want to be able to trust myself to be eyeballing food properly, properly portion regular meals, and trust the process re weighing myself - but I don't think I'm there yet! My TDEE is quite low so I don't have a huge amount of room for error. As the title says: eek! [link] [comments] |
| Trying to lose on bad sleep schedule. Posted: 13 Jun 2021 09:10 PM PDT I'm trying to lose weight and get back on the horse so to speak. However, my sleep schedule is very poor. I'm either sleeping from noon to 8PM or around there. I'm trying really hard to get back on a normal track. However I'm not sure how to track my food. Since my days overlap. For example I'm up Tuesday and Wednesday, then sleep most of Wednesday, then I'm up for Thursday. It's really bad. I'm trying to track my food, but the days all blur together. Should I track from the time I wake up, until I go to sleep? Should I just track days by the 24 hair time? I've gained weight since I start posting here. I'm completely to blame. I just don't know what to do. Everytime it seems my sleep is fixed, it gets screwed up again and my eating habits go down the drain as well. My eating and sleep are linked closely, I just don't know what to do. [link] [comments] |

| 2nd Go At Weight Loss Need Tips. Posted: 13 Jun 2021 07:37 PM PDT 19M 5'7 227 Please skip to the tips if you don't care about my little story. Just wanted to share it since I don't really have anyone to tell about it. I care more about the help.. Tldr; I was really fat, became a little less fat, now I'm really fat again and need help. First Journey So summer 2019 when I was 17, I decided I want to lose weight. I cut sodas and started eating less food, didn't really count calories but guessed how many I ate, so probably 1500-2000 a day. I DEFINETELY didn't eat healthy AT ALL, I still ate like shit but in moderation. For exercise I periodically went on walks throughout the day and averaged around 3-4 miles a day throughout that span. Went from 251 to plateauing at 197 in about 7 months. Not sure if I just gave up but I stayed around there for a few months. Then in June I started going to the gym with my friend. I was around 200 at that time and then throughout the 2 months I went up to 210 by August. Our schedules ended up not aligning, and with (at this point crippling) social anxiety and a 20 minute drive, I stopped going. At that point I just really gave up, and ended up being 240 by March. I still walked a lot even during the first few months of the plateau but I just couldn't keep a calorie deficit. I would try over and over but I guess not hard enough as I'd fail every time. Back On It Now I think I'm back on track with a Calorie deficit. I was about 237/240 starting in May and right now I'm about 227. First week, I did the approach where I'd eat whatever I wanted. Fried foods and ketchup, but a couple weeks ago I decided that it would be better to try to eat healthier this time. Last week I ate relatively healthy, but not completely. And this past week I went a whole week with eating Chicken, Rice, Vegetables, and Fruits everyday (besides a cheat meal where I had Zaxby's). I'm doing the same thing with the exercise as I did my first time. I haven't really been counting calories but I did today, really trying to keep consistent at that. Need Some Tips EATING So here's where I need help. I feel like with this "healthy" eating I'm eating way too little but I'm afraid to eat more and I'm not even that hungry. Today I counted my calories and I apparently only had around 600. So off that, except on days where I potentially ate more fruits than other days (and my cheat meal), this whole last week I've only been consuming that much. I don't feel that hungry and it's not like I'm drained of energy. But at the same time it's only been a week. I also don't even know if that's true at this point, because tomorrow is my weigh in day, and as of right now I'm the same weight as I was last week. The weeks were I ate like shit I had lost weight. EXCERSIZE So with the periodically walking an average of 3-4 miles a day, would I be better off just going to the gym and hitting the treadmill/weights? Would treadmill with an incline and incorporating running be more beneficial? I have a friend who went from 240 to 170 2 years ago (5 or so months, and now 150) and kept it off. I found his routine was something along the lines of walking and running for 20-25 minutes, which is a lot less time than I spend walking. I don't mind walking cause I do it when I'm genuinely bored instead of sitting around, but would I get more results with another routine. Closest gym is also a 20 minute drive away, but if it would be better exercise it's probably worth it. If you read this it means a lot. Even if no one respond it was nice to vent, and if you do respond thanks for any help. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 13 Jun 2021 10:02 PM PDT 19 F CW: 265 GW: 155 I've been obese almost* all my life. (*There was a year or so in my life that I had lost weight, I was younger and still visiting my dad then. I don't remember much of it other than being forced to eat yogurt and salads.) I need to change but I have no guidance to turn to for help irl, so I thought maybe I could get help (and possibly some new friends) here. I'm ready to do it. I can feel it in me. I know I can. I just don't know where to start. I come here asking for help with meals and a workout plan. I've tried many times to make my own guidelines and work outs and I always overwhelmed myself and give up within a few days. (Thank you ADHD, very rad of you.) My biggest issue is I'm a picky eater. Very picky. I'm hoping to get better. I don't eat most vegetables and only a few fruits, as far as protein I prefer chicken above all else but I'll also eat Turkey/Pork/Beef(if I have to). I've heard chicken and rice is a good start? But anyhow, thank you for reading and helping! <3 [link] [comments] |

| CBT App for weight loss that works? Posted: 13 Jun 2021 07:02 PM PDT I've been seeing a number of reviews saying that noom really doesn't do a good job. But I also see a lot of research that CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) does help for weight loss. So I'm wondering if there's a good app. I'm thinking an app that nudges you gently to make better choices, to reframe your thinking when you feel the urge to snack, that walks you through behavioral exercises, that sort of thing. I see there are generic CBT apps - not specifically for weight loss. So is there a CBT app for weight loss that does do a good job? Or a generic app that can be customized for weight loss as a goal? Ideally for android but share apple apps as well so others can be helped. Thanks! [link] [comments] |
| Not overweight, but will feel better with less weight on my feet. Ready to go! Posted: 13 Jun 2021 06:35 PM PDT I am a 29 year old woman, 5'7" and 135 lb. during my early 20s My weight was in the low 120s. I've been lifting weights and running for 8 year, but don't watch my diet like I should. I've noticed a lot of aches and pains this year. I can't run fast anymore and am frequently tired. My Blood pressure is also high and the only time it was normal was when I was thinner. I can't afford and don't want to be on medication and am terrified to have heart surgery since my dad died on the operating table. Starting tomorrow I am fully committed to getting 10-15lb off me so I can feel confident, light and healthy, and not have this joint pain anymore. I just feel like I need to tell someone this!

| Posted: 13 Jun 2021 09:11 PM PDT I have been actively trying to lose weight for the past 3 or so years. At my biggest, I was 400+lbs, now I'm down to 280lbs or so. Anyways, I'm starting to notice a lot of different things happening to my body. Not just the sagging skin and other weird things, but my joints will bruise. It's really weird, but if I'm on my feet too long, my knees will bruise, so will my ankles. I'm attempting to get back in the gym to try and build my resistance back up. I was really active at one point because of my job, left and did desk work, lost everything in a span of 6 months (funny how that works). Sorry for the wall of text, but has this happened to anyone else before? [link] [comments] |
