Really jumping out of my comfort zone to post this, but since November of 2017 I’ve lost 100 lbs! I went from a size 20 to a size 4. I learned that there really isn’t a cure-all diet, just hard work and consistency. The journey isn’t over yet though!

Awesome job congratulations and keep up the great work!

Good work OP!

Never mind the looks, do you feel better and more healthy?
chemiskatie
SO much better. My doctor was worried I might develop type 2 diabetes if I continued my habits, so I feel 200x healthier now.
DrLivingstoneIpresume
Well Done!
MercerSkye
Journey isn't over? You lose anymore and you're turning invisible... Honestly, though, good job @op
chemiskatie
Oh I agree!! Now I just want to be more active. It’s a lifestyle!

100 lbs of blood sweat and tears? You need a transfusion and an IV immediately.
Jawesome19
It's too late, Mcqueef. We lost another good one to sweat and tears loss, with a blood deficiency. Damn it, why do we do this!?!?!

The cure-all diet is "Don't eat too much".
ctotheg2

Amazing! So inspirational! Be proud of yourself for all the hard work. You look fantastic and I bet you feel great too!
LinkinPiper
Don’t forget the almost 2 year struggle! Easy to get complacent. Keep it up!

Amazing job+1

Protip: It's a lot easier if you focus on losing fat. Fluids are not that heavy and you kind of need them. Trust me, I'm hilarious. (1)

(Just adding this joke because as obvious as it is, I felt previous tries lacked something. Congrats on the journey and I wish you much (2)

Congrats OP!!! I love seeing transformations! But when you say the journey isn't over I hope you don't mean to lose more weight :/
MindyTheTeaboo
A size 4 is a happy perfect medium, if not skinny to a lot of people. I just hope you don't go too far, I'm only concerned bcz I had an
MindyTheTeaboo
Eating disorder :/ if you do wish to lose more weight just do it the right and healthy way and don't hurt yourself girly. Again congrats!
chemiskatie
I’m not planning on losing more weight!! Just want to get more athletic and improve my mental health. You’re so sweet for reaching out ❤️
MindyTheTeaboo
Good! I'm so happy for you, I'm trying to get healthy as well so I know the feels. I want to go back to school for physical therapy but
MindyTheTeaboo
Can't do that if I'm not fit and healthy myself lol. I'm currently 157 and am trying to at least lose 20 pounds. If it had been a few years
MindyTheTeaboo
Ago I'd have relapsed, but luckily I survived and conquered! Keep on keeping on! If you don't swim, I'd highly recommend it! ❤
scottbTerror
Kudos on your weight loss. Hard work and consistency is the key to all of life.
vegaron
My wife and I are looking to start this journey as well. Getting started is hard. Any recommendations on how to start?
chemiskatie
@OrdinaryBiker nailed it. That’s really the only way

Good job!!! Now clean your room!
chemiskatie
I didn’t expect this to get this much attention or i would have lol
bfmama
A couple things on the floor doesn't make it dirty. Just tell him to stfu. Good job on all the blood loss. ;-)
joesii
Your room looks very clean already. I would have moved those two things on the ground for the picture, but that doesnt change it being clean
ButterworthToast
Awsome work OP ^_^ you should be proud of yourself. Look fantastic.
chemiskatie
Thank you so much ? I was really nervous to post this publicly so the support means a lot
ButterworthToast
Its good! Seeing stuff like this makes me believe I can lose weight too... deifnitiley put some on in the last two/three years >_> haha

Rather than just upvote, I wanted to take the time and say well done! What matters most is your happiness:)

You look so happy :)

losing blood sounds like a bad way to lose weight. seriously though congratulations
Whatwouldtyronedo
Have you ever ripped a blister blasting your max on the bar bro? Blood is gaaaaains!
Silkyninja1
Coagulations!
CmfMttnPpl
Well ya when you have ghosts in ur blood ur supposed to do cocaine about it
chrisjohnson76
But, uh.. whose blood?
KnightThatDrinksTea
no, sounds like a good choice. donating blood to loose weight would be a great. Doesn't work, but well....just donate blood anyway.
PyroFox35
I dunno. If you’re looking to shed that one last pound, it’s a great way to do it.
SithElephant
It works a little. 450 calories or so per 16 weeks, is the equivalent of around half a pound a year.
amoeba15
I wish I could. :-(
WaterUnderTheRocketAppliances
How many pounds of blood did she have?
Mechwarrior719
So many
PyroFox35
If she lost 100 pounds of weight, then she also lost approx 99.7 fl oz of blood.
FancyAmsterdammerrrr
The answer is 5 kilo. .... 5 kilo of blood in every human adult.
Dontdearabbyme
It was over a few years. I think 3? After... Way too much math, she could've donated about 21lbs of blood over 3 years.
PyroFox35
More flesh (fat included) means more blood.
smellsmiketeenspirit
Significantly ?
PyroFox35
Depending on the calculation, yes. 100 pounds can be anywhere from 40 to 100 fl oz difference. That’s 2.5 to 6.25 pints of blood.
Hawkhead
I'd cry if I lost 100 of these.....
(seriously, well done)
FuzzyX
I saw plenty of those back in the 80s.
davegsm82
Christ, I remember getting these in my pocket money. Aging, DO NOT WANT.
IcommentMostlyWithGifs
DoNotTakeSeriousPls
Depends on if they’re mine or not
Heita
£1 notes haven't been legal tender for a long time. so losing these is actually pretty okay. although they might be worth it to a collector.
Hawkhead
Each one is still worth £1 to the Bank. You can exchange them for a £1 coin. Approx £7 each to a collector.
thelordalmightydog
Also, the channel Islands still have £1 notes which is fun.
Counterfit
Ireland still used the pound when I visited there. Not GBP, obviously.
FuzzyX
Ireland uses the Euro. If you meant Northern Ireland then that is GBP but issued by the Bank of Ireland, Northern Bank, etc.
