Finally back under 300 lbs. Thank you r/loseit!

Most of us had a pretty rough year last year. When I started my weight loss journey about 2.5 years ago, I was at 385 lbs. I was didnt know if I'd be alive for my 4 year olds high school graduation. Long story short, at the beginning of last year I was down to 260 lbs. Felt good, but wanted more. Covid hits, and I either got lazy about exercising, and even worse what and when I was eating; or I lied to myself and thought I could maintain without actually putting any effort into maintaining.

So her comes the holiday season at the end of 2020, almost back up to 320 or so. Felt like a freight train on a steep downhill grade with no brakes. All the "skinny" clothes I had gotten after all that weight loss was almost not fitting, didnt feel motivated at all.

Now here we are halfway thru January, and I've found some bits of motivation. Starting to get a handle on at least when I eat (ex. No snaking after dinner), started exercising with my wife and 11 year old daughter, all that good stuff. Ive also found a lot of motivation from reading your guys' stories, knowing I'm not the only one with these problems. And now I'm back under 300 lbs. and am feeling really good.

Thank you to this community for sharing all you great people share. Keep up all the strong work, we are not alone in our work.
