I have restarted my weight loss goal as of last year to try to get healthier to have another baby (mom of 1 wonderful 3yo). My heaviest was at the peak of my pregnancy being 210lb. Seeing the scale go over 200 almost gave me a panic attack. I have always been bigger, with my pre pregnancy weight being 185 @ 5'4", and gaining as much as I did really scared me. Of course, not scared enough to not start trying to get healthier until 2-3yrs later. This sub introduced me to the We Only LOOK Thin Podcast and that thoroughly changed my way of thinking. Have I lost weight before? Absolutely. But did I keep it off? Nope. If this was the me of 5 years ago, I would've been ashamed to have lost "only" 12lbs. But now, I'm extremely proud of myself. My starting weight this time was 170lb and, one year later, I'm starting the year at 158lb. Throughout last year, my weight fluctuated slightly, but consistently (and slowly) crept down lower and lower. I decided to stop losing before the holidays and maintain the rest of the year. Now that the holidays are over, I'm back to a deficit and trying to add exercise in (only CICO before) to tone up. My goal weight is 150, but I'm hoping to get down to a healthy BMI with a weight of around 125-135. This goal may be hit before or after we have another child, but that's okay because these things take time. I'm thankful for this community with all of the tips I've learned and being introduced to the wonderful podcast I now listen to daily. Here's to 2026 and being the best us we can be!
