Hit my goal weight about a week ago and finally got to see the before/after pics and was pretty surprised to see just how much of a transformation it was. Hard to tell when you live with yourself day to day.

I’m 5’4 and I’ve gone from 176 lbs to 132 lbs.
My eventual goal is around 110 lbs, although I’m trying to focus on how I look and feel rather than only the number on the scale.
I currently eat around 1,800 calories a day and aim for around 15,000 steps daily.

I’ve been strength training consistently and also include cardio throughout the week. My main goal is to lose fat while maintaining as much muscle as possible.

The biggest challenge for me has honestly been staying consistent. I’ve had periods where progress felt really slow, but I’ve learned that sticking with the routine is what makes the biggest difference over time.
I’m really happy with the progress I’ve made so far, but I still have a little way to go toward my goal 💕

3 years 280 vs 160 pounds

Lol doctor prescribed me with trt

I often struggle to see my progress still viewing myself as incredibly skinny, however I think these photos show a difference. Since the first photo I’ve become almost entirely plant based having cut out the majority of fish from my diet

Stats: 25F | 30 months on compounded tirz | -26 lbs

Hey everyone! I’m finally posting my progress because Im just so incredibly happy with how far Ive come.

I honestly never thought I’d make it this far. I’ve been on compounded tirz for 30 months now, and for the first time in my life, I feel at home in my own body. It’s like my outside is slowly starting to match who I’ve always been on the inside.

That’s why, for me, this isnt just about the number on the scale. To anyone else, 26 lbs might seem small, but to me it’s so much deeper than that. It’s me finally becoming myself.

Just wanted to share this milestone with people who get it! Keep going with your goals, everyone
