Weight loss journey completed. Finally.

Often times we confuse hunger for thirst!

When I get hunger feeling when I've already ate my meal for the day i drink a glass of water. Usually that reminds me I'm not hungry just thirsty.

I wished that were the case. I carry fluid with me most of the time

I started a weight loss plan/goal Aug 4th after an accident and during my difficult recovery, going to Dr. visits and constantly stepping on the scale at every Dr. I had to go see. And noticing on my chart they wrote the word - Obese.
My weight at that time was 238lbs.

I was down about 20lbs after 60 days when I returned to work but decided to continue to eat healthier and set a weekly or monthly goal to get healthier and lose weight.
Crossing the 200lb barrier and I noticed they had changed my BMI index on my chart to say just -Overweight

This morning I had my yearly physical and noticed my weight and BMI listed as -Normal
This morning I reached a goal weight of 168lbs. I lost 70lbs in 7 months total weight loss.

This was just a celebratory post because I needed to tell someone. Thanks for listening.

Anyone wanting to know how I did it, just ask. I will be glad to share.
Otherwise thanks for reading. Listening.

I am going to get breakfast. At Cracker Barrel to celebrate.

Congratulations! You did an amazing job!

Switched to Carnivore diet. I’m 6-2, 250, farmhand/concrete finisher background.

Lost 60 lbs and wear the same pants I wore in 6th grade. Kicking ass and taking names.

Slow to get going in the mornings like a Detroit diesel but hard to stop.


Great job on making it happen!


There are two types of people.


Those that do and don’t.


Winners and losers. There is no “in between”. Second place is only the first loser.


Congratulations!!!!


You win!

Sounds like Alex is going to stop by for a pep talk… I’ll make sure to bring the fulcrum!!!

I remember stepping on the scale last year and seeing numbers that just wouldn’t budge no matter what I did. I tried the usual route: cutting carbs, sticking to a gym routine, even fasting for a while. At first the weight dropped, but then it just leveled out. That stall was honestly harder to deal with than the starting point.

After a few months of spinning my wheels I tried a different route and signed up with Minimal. That’s where I finally got access to a GLP-1, and it gave me the push I needed. The cravings calmed down, I felt full quicker, and the steady grind actually started showing results again.

Now I’m in a spot where it’s less about the scale and more about holding the line. Walks, swimming, and eating in a way I can actually stick with long term. Looking back, the biggest win wasn’t just dropping pounds, but finding a rhythm that doesn’t feel like punishment.
