Yes! It might be hard, but it's worth it!

I work well with targets so, since late September, I've been setting myself goals. My current one was to have lost a total of 20lbs by the time I go on holiday next Friday.

Well today I smashed that. With a week to go love lost 21lbs. A stone and a half in 4 months. I'm so happy.

Looking at this photo it seems impossible to image that I've lost all this fat. Should also point out that it's not actually me holding the fat in the photo! Lol i wish!

And, looking good for my holiday aside, I'm no longer obese! I think this is the first time in over about 3 years that I've been able to say that. The best part is it doesn't even really feel like a diet anymore. Long may it continue 😊

Stick in there guys cos I can assure you it feels great!

Fantastic. Such a nice feeling indeed. In 20 weeks I have lost 30lbs ( started first week of September) , I am no longer obese, I am approaching the top end of my healthy range and I feel great too so I can totally relate.

Great achievement and enjoy the feeling!! It will last, and last, and last!! Sometimes you just want to pinch yourself ( or what is left of you haha!)

Well do you, what a terrific achievement - just shows how much 20lbs is in the photos. I would like to lose a further 21lbs to hit my target weight, so I'm gonna keep these pictures to inspire me. Have a wonderful holiday - you deserve it.

Congrats, very impressive! Make sure to keep going and remember that staying happy & healthy is the best gift you can give yourself and the people you love! :)

I lost 17kg (38lbs) in the last year and a half but am now struggling a bit to keep it. I gained 4kg back (~9lbs) recently but am determined that's the last time I allow myself this. Need to stay focused!
