months not weeks

what non scale thing surprised you most

youre allowed to be pleased

right so how long did it take before you believed it was actually working
my milestone was tying my shoes sitting upright. it is not an endpoint in any trial

the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance

i was the one who nearly quit at week three and now i am the one saying hold, which i find funny

thats a big drop

bloods, blood pressure and the stairs all moved before the scale did anything interesting

i was down 14 at month six and then nothing at all for eleven weeks. it moved again. the eleven weeks were not a failure

my knees stopped hurting and i genuinely did not expect that, has anyone had the same

does the room want the numbers or just the story

i keep a pair of jeans from 2015 in the wardrobe as a measuring device and it is the only measurement i trust

follow up please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it

the stairs thing yeah

half a stone in 19 weeks sounds slow written down and felt enormous while it was happening

i measure my waist as well because it kept moving through two separate stalls

the milestone that mattered was fitting an aeroplane seat without the extender, and i was embarrassed by how much
