Fast is not the *only* pace to lose weight!

It took me 3 years to lose 155lbs.

I must admit, I felt like a failure my whole losing-weight-process, I just couldn't live on such a big deficit.

I was so obsessed with transformations pics on IG of people who lost all my goal weight in half an year, I was curious how people around me lost weight faster than me, I couldn't enjoy the process or see my progress till I lost the majority of the weight.

Every time I've tried to increase my deficit, I suffered from binge eating and weakness, which just made me feel worse.

3 years later, and the people I was obsessed with on IG don't post any pics anymore, and the people around me who lost the weight faster than me, gained the majority of their weight loss back.

I wish I could understand this earlier, but fast is not always better. Weight loss is a hard process as it is, you don't need to make it harder with trying to go against your capabilities.

BTW, I don't claim fast weight loss isn't good or not sustainable, I just say it is not working for me.

Thanks for listening.
