(27/M/5’10”) After finally getting fed up with being fat my whole life, and losing 115 pounds in 9 months, I have now successfully kept it off for 6 months. Never give up on yourself!!

So there I am. I found that old picture on Facebook today, and honestly can't believe I was that fat and never really realized it.

I did it by eating 1000 calories per day (doctor recommended, don't worry!), and slowly increasing the calories over 9 months to my current 1750 per day (plus unlimited amounts of sugarfree gum!).

I also began lifting weights a few months ago, and am finally seeing some definition! I lift every other day, and on my off days I go on the treadmill.

Never give up on yourself!!
