The weekly weight loss check-in and encouragement

[veritatemfurto]

I can almost fit into my work's size 14 blazers again  should be there just in time for the holidays

definitely now a size 16 in pants - all my size 18's are almost too big to wear even with a belt (i can forget about 20's completely  ) and I'm starting to be able to fit into more size 14's than just the curvy ones... although my weight is still hovering at 203.... no diet changes, just working my ass off and staying active

Interesting topic.


5' 8", 29. This morning I was at 65.2 (143.7 lb) , which means almost 5 kg (11 lb) lost since the Eight of July. No junk food, reduced calories intake, no sodas, beer, bread, chocolate, a lot of cardio and ab exercising every day. Still a lot of work until I feel ready.

And four saggy jeans now. Crap. I'm going to need new holes on my belts. At least I can use S sized T-Shirts for the first time on my life.

first five weeks of hrt and back up to 90kg, slowly coming back off again, back down to 88-89... :/

5' 7, 135 pounds. 16% body fat. I decided to make August gym month to lose fat. I started resistance training because that's a good method but it makes me afraid of being super bulky as I just want to look slender.

[Apples]

5,8", 63.6 kg (140 pounds). If I managed to set the scale properly, 15% body fat. Next week I start the 6 days exercising program. When I can't see more abdominal fat I'll switch to resistance training, and try to get stablished on 60 kg. If the body gets used to a good level of cardio and exercising, keeping the weight should not be a problem.

Back in 64.4. Gym is closed, It is too hot on the street and I won't be able to exercise outside until I recover from laser. Call this a vacation...

I seem to be in a holding pattern at the moment... What is it with that? My body likes these long pauses prior to the next shift in weight. It likes to sit at least a few months at a set weight (was stuck at 232 then 226, 212, 206, 198, 192, 186, 184, and now in my case 178 or 179 lbs (I'm 6'1.5"). Homeostasis. Sometimes it just means I've started cheating a bit here and there, you know adding cream back to my coffee, eating an extra cookie or two or three, ice cream... The nice thing is I've added a touch of running lately which I haven't done in eons. So, I'll see what happens. I think I would like to get to around 172 prior to hormones... It is hard when you don't really have a goal weight anymore and it is more by look. My goal was 182 originally and since I'm less than that, it is now by eye which is challenging when you have gender dysphoria that plays on the old brain map!

62.9! Although checking the weight immediately after coming back from 3 hours of gym is a bit like cheating.

My size 14 jeans that I got back in June no longer fit, way too loose. My girlfriend is a size 12 and her pants fit nicely now. I'm shooting for a size 10 by Halloween.

I think it's a dramatic decrease in weight. Underweight?

My goal is to keep < 65 kg, but it has been difficult. My dad and relatives say that I look too skinny, but I think I need to decrease a little bit more.

Nah, I'm back to 63.6. When  I took that measuring I was probably depleted of any liquid after 2 hours of cardio (Hence the cheating part). I still have abdominal marks from where my gut protrudes.

It´s odd. I only have gut and tiny love handles, and maybe in the legs, the rest of my body is almost bones. I even have a tiny hourglass figure thanks to a really small torso.

Anyways, it will be impossible whilie I am staying with my parents, as they are hell bent on breaking my diet or exercising routines by  deliberately preparing the mos greasy things and trying to force feed me.

So it's been a long time since I've posted an update.  Since my last one I've probably been on hrt for 2 months, getting that right has sent me all over the scale.  Finally back to 86kg and not retaining stupid amounts of water anymore.

Working out again with 2 days on and 1 day off. I'm also eating properly again but with a weekly calorie deficit of about 4000-4500 calories per week which should get me around 0.5kg off per week, or maybe even a little more as I'm not sure how muscle mass is going to figure into it all. Or so goes the theory It would be pretty cool to be down to 80kg in the next 3 months and overall I'm aiming for 77 to 80kg.

Started at 211 in January
176 pounds now (80.0k), aiming for 147 (67.0k).

[ZoeNicole]

Started at 135kg in August 2011. Took almost a year to get down to 114kg in August right before I saw the endocrine for the first time.

Since then I have gotten down to 104 as of today.

I am 181cm tall.

[Shang]

Started at ~205 lbs in March.

I'm now at 194 lbs.   3 lbs were last in the last two weeks.  [I'm taking it slow.]  My goal weight is 160 lbs and I'm 5'10".  160 lbs puts me a little overweight, but I look like a stick when I get under that so I'm fine with 160 lbs.

[Apples Mk.II]

62.4 (137.5). I'm back to a normal diet with a few indulgences, but...

I never though I could lose weight so easily with a bit of discipline.

Ignore the bra-- it's really the only way to show it...  First pictures taken last October, 2nd pictures taken today.  So like 11 months.  We don't have a scale, so I have no idea how much I weight.  At the beginning I know it was around 260 and last time I weighed myself in June I was at 214, so I'm gonna guess I'm around 200 now.  I really should find a scale...

Looking good!   Keep it up!

I did not exercise during past 1 week, as it rained and a big typhoon came. But I feel that weigt gain is marginal. I had some time to run today morning. A photo taken one week ago while running to my office.

I have been going up and down in wait for such a long time now. Part of the reason is because I have been in the hospital with my daughter off and on. And it's hard. I went from a weight of 255 20 wEight of 230.  The thing is that I've been at this for a while and I should be doing better by now.I wanted to ask this question again because I can't see or find anywhere the question that I had posted many posts ago so I wanted to see me what a person that is around 6 foot tall should be weighing as a woman? I also wanted to know if there was anyone that was around that height that could maybe mentor me to get me to the appropriate weight.I am currently thinking of doing the Paleolithic diet. This diet seems to be working for some of my friends. They have done very well on it. And it's not too bad. So I'm hoping that this diet will help me out. I've also tried juicing. You see part of my problem is that I am taking forever, to get to the point where I need to go with my weight and my transition. So many obstacles in my way and 1 big 1 seems to be my size. Although I don't think that I am is big is I am sometimes, I do have people saying Oh you're a big boy, you're a big guy. And that really bothers me. I mean I think I have I shape of maybe Quarterback at most! But some days it's really bad, and it depresses the hell out of me. Well, that's enough b******* for now. Thanks for your help a head of time.
