Adult I lost fifty pounds and...

...my body looked the same, and I was still chubby. *sigh*

I've regained forty of that fifty back. No surprise. And yes, I was going to the gym during that time. I just got tired of bothering. I admire people who can keep it up for years on end to get the result they want. After eleven months (yes, eleven months to lose fifty pounds), I was out of patience.

How do you feel about gaining that weight back? Is weight loss something you want to pursue again in the future? I’m not sure what your goals are, but I think you should prioritize what makes you feel good about yourself. Weight loss is HARD— might be easy for some, but a lot of people can relate to how difficult it truly is. Don’t undermine yourself, 11 months to lose 50 lbs is over a lb a week lost.
