I was clearing out the cupboards in my spare room and came across an old pair of jeans. I couldnt believe how heavy they were and how much fabric was in them. I compared to a pair of my current jeans and the difference is massive. I got into one leg of them (stretchy material, but still!)
2.5years ago i was 356lbs and wearing a UK size 28 in clothes. Now at 208lbs and in a size 14-16.
Sometimes you dont realise how much weight you have lost, how many inches are gone until you actually see a visual representation. Im keeping these jeans until i can get to my goal weight and see if there is another big difference.
Edit: not enough content!
I decided to start this journey as i was fed up of my limited clothing choices. If i was going somewhere and needed a new dress, i had 2 stores in my town that catered to larger ladies. I was essentially stuck with buying something that fit my body, rather than something that i actually liked, or made me look and feel good. It made shopping a miserable experience. Now i can wander into most shops, try something on and if i dont like how it looks, i know there are so many more options and more stores to try.
My weightloss has been a mixture of CICO, counting macros, IF, extended fasts. I switch it around a lot as i get bored easily with the same foods over and over again. And my activity level is off the charts - i lift weights with a PT, i walk/run daily, boxing classes, circuits and HIIT.
