Lost more than half my body weight

From 27M 6'1" 300 lbs to 29M 6'1" 140 lbs

BMI dropped from 39.6 to 18.5

Decided I didnt want to continue destroying neither my appearance nor my health anymore,and that I wanted to become skinny again. Went on a calorie deficit,it took longer than it does for most people,about 2 years,because I admittedly lost my self control every now and then and had to get back on track,but I'm glad to say it was all worth it in the end,atleast as far as I'm concerned.

My end goal was 150,because 300÷2=150. I just thought 'losing HALF your body weight' would sound like such a significant accomplishment. I managed to get 10 lbs below that,hate to sound braggy but I think it's incredible.

Gonna have to make sure to maintain this weight long-term though,so I don't end up gaining it all back again lol. I'm finally skinny again,all it took was putting the fork down. I did take some more extreme measures on occasion though,like I outright didn't eat anything at all for four days straight once,and while I admit stuff like that was excessive,to me what matters is that I'm officially,visibly,confirmably THIN now,and that I'm happy in my body again.

All it takes is sheer force of will,discipline and determination. Next step:skin removal surgery. After that,my weight loss journey is officially complete.

God bless ❤️
