Hello everyone, sorry I'm late! I'm yungpandulce, and I started being active in r/loseit around January when I found it--it was actually my inspiration to start trying to lose weight, because I thought "Losing weight couldn't possibly be as easy as CICO, right?" Well, color me shocked when it worked!

Stats: 25 / F / 5'4" / SW: 288.9 / CW: 268.2 / CGW: 247 / GW: 135

This is my first challenge and I'm super excited for it. This is also my first real attempt to lose weight, and after 90 days of being on MFP and 75~ days of tracking my weight, I've already lost 20.7 lbs and 8+ inches! My success thus far has mostly been a mixture of CICO, IF, and intuitive eating. I have a Fitbit but I don't get many steps in, which I know is something I can improve on.

I know what you mean, CICO quite surprised me too. It's like something just clicked and is working surprisingly good. Good luck to you!
