I lost 60 pounds in six months: 238 to 178

I decided it was time for some serious weight loss six months ago. I had heard about this intermittent fasting thing, and wanted to give it ago. At my peak I weighed 250lbs in 2019, but in August I decided it was time for a change. I challenged myself to run 30 miles in the month of August, and while I accomplished my goal, I didn't end up losing the weight I thought I would. When I decided to get serious with some diet change, I got on the scale and started the timer. My initial goal was 30 lbs, and I thought 208 would be a nice target since the last time I weight 200lbs was when I was a Freshman in High School. Well, the more I put effort into my nutrition, the better I felt. The more I lost weight, the better I felt. Running led me to the climbing gym, which led me to yoga. My life has changed, I have lost 60 pounds in 6 months, and I can't wait for the next chapter. Do you need a little motivation? Let me show you that anything is possible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KASGsi83iM
