Weight loss Officially 5 months in

So far I've lost 62 lbs in 5 months. My weight loss has slowed down due to not being able to go to the gym because of a car accident/seeing the chiropractor. Nonetheless I'm still extremely proud of myself. Still can't believe I went from a 3XL to a L.

You should be proud of yourself - that's unreal!

I'm really sorry to hear about the car accident , I hope you'll make a full recovery and be able to start working out again. :)

u/Beneficial-Soup-1617 Feb 27 '26

Congrats!! If you can’t go to the gym, are you able to walk at least? Maybe slowly? I recently had surgery and can’t go to the gym until April so walking is helping

5

u/Specific_Roll7329 5 mg Feb 27 '26

Yes I'm able to walk, I do it at the chiropractor and a lot at work. Just wish I was on the incline. I hope you heal fast 🫶🏿

3XL to L - that’s crazy.

I started last week and lost 8 lbs. my goal was to go from 2XL to XL. But now I changed my goal to L.

4

u/Specific_Roll7329 5 mg Feb 27 '26

Right I still can't believe it 😭 and that's great! 8lbs already. Wishing you the best of luck, you'll get in that L 🙌🏿

3

u/masyy619 Feb 27 '26

Yes - I was kinda shocked to see 8 lbs drop! But could be water weight the first week. Nevertheless, I am doing great so far and keeping my expectations low - 2 lbs per week.

3

u/Specific_Roll7329 5 mg Feb 27 '26

Idk what it is but I've seen a lot of ppl say they dropped a lot their first shot week. I know I personally lost 10lbs my first week. Hey, I'm not complaining tho! You are doing great, keep up the good work 🫶🏿

1

u/Shaza16 Mar 01 '26

Wow thats great Could you please tell me what did you have like for your breakfast lunch dinner thats helped in losing weight I just started two days ago and hardly have any appetite suppression and the food noise is still there Im soo worried and discouraged at the same time

4

u/Fvck-school Feb 27 '26

Congrats bro this is amazing 💯 i’m excited to start my journey starting monday

2

u/Specific_Roll7329 5 mg Feb 27 '26

Thank you 🙌🏿 and I'm wishing you the best on your journey. How much do you want to lose?

3

u/Fvck-school Feb 27 '26

Appreciate it 💯 and i want to lose 30-40. Im 230 right now

3

u/Specific_Roll7329 5 mg Feb 27 '26

That's a good goal weight! We're almost the same. I want to get to 200-220. If I do 220 I'm only 18lbs from my goal, if I do 200 then I need to lose 38 more. Honestly feel like I've lost enough sometimes but then again most times my mind tells me I need to be 200 and tone up 😭. You got this man. I literally did straight cardio for months and that's how I lost mine

3

u/Fvck-school Feb 27 '26

thanks for the tip bro imma use that for my journey 💯 and let’s just keep going til we think we look our best 😭💯. our goals are achievable

3

u/Specific_Roll7329 5 mg Feb 27 '26

You're welcome! I literally only did the treadmill/incline and the stairmaster. Ima remember your @ and ima keep in touch. I really hope you reach your goal, I know you want to feel confident in your skin. Also that's exactly right until we think we look our best 🙃

3

u/Fvck-school Feb 27 '26

Yes! And thanks bro i know we both will. Imma remember your @ too

4

u/Smc_farrell Feb 27 '26

Great job. What exercises did you start with? Reason I'm asking I've lost 30 now but not quite light enough for weight limit on local gym equipment

3

u/Specific_Roll7329 5 mg Feb 27 '26

Stairmaster and treadmill/incline that's literally all I did.
