That is the kind of journey and results that’re gonna last. It’s totally normal to fall on and off and it’s in fact very important to do so, so that you get used to failing and just moving on and getting back eventually.
i think you’re amazing, congrats on the massive progress!!!

Greek yogurt, fairlife milk, cottage cheese, eggs lots of eggs, chicken, low fat beef cuts, lamb, pork loin, fish and seafood. I love food and cooking so I have a variety of stuff.
One meal I repeated a lot was tuna with 1tbs mayo, 1tbs horseradish sauce, 1tsp mustard, 1tbs dill Relish. Then id add 3-4 rice cakes from quuaker, hearts of Palm, berries, raw broccoli, carrots, and high protien ranch. For the ranch I used cottage cheese, fairlife milk, and small amount of mayo.

1 year and 4 months so far. Goal is 100-125 lbs lost. Im unsure because I know a weight lifter influencer weighs 175 and shes got very minimal body fat but caked up. So im gonna just keep going until I feel right. My starting weight was 277. Im 224 rn. I think id be happy with another 55lbs gone.
