I moved to a new place recently and had been using my ex's scale to track weight loss for the past year. I was so worried and nervous when I finally bought a new one off Amazon and it came yesterday. I waited to open it today since I was so worried that I must have gained a ton of weight back. That I had too many cheat days despite still tracking more days than not.
Last August I had crept back up to 162. I had been 185 five years ago, got down to 135, and had been hovering in the 140s for the last 4 years mostly. I was crushed to see that number be so close to 180 again.
This August, over one year later, I saw 147. I thought it would be 153 at least. I'm still working to get back to the 130s because I remember that weight feeling really good on my body, but knowing that I have not lost all my progress again. Knowing that even without watching my weight everyday that I still have kept good habits was a huge success to me.
I remember being 150/149 back in June so I am still losing weight! It's been a struggle the past year I won't lie, but even with setbacks like dealing with holidays, vacations, moving to a new state, and other times when I've gone up in lbs, I've been able to focus on going down still.
I'd rather have my consistent loss of my 15 lbs in one year even if people lose that weight faster. Hell, I lost my original 50 lbs in around 8 months last time. But I'm happy with my progress and look forward to losing another 15 and getting to my 130s.
