Down 36.1 lbs and I couldn't be prouder of myself

SW: 351 lbs CW: 314.9 lbs

I can't believe it. I CANNOT BELIEVE IT. I'm almost out of the 300s baby!!

What Worked For Me:

1. Not being mean to myself. I've spent a decade shaming every food choice, every day I didn't exercise. Punishing myself. Did it help me lose weight? Absolutely not. I just soothed my emotions by binge eating, thus creating a shame spiral that I've been swirling around in since I was 14.

2. Practicing intuitive eating. Now, yes, I'm still on WW so I am monitoring what I'm eating and portion sizes. But I am also listening to my body. I let myself have that cake if I really want it, but if I'm not hungry, I don't eat it. If it doesn't make me feel good, I don't eat it. This sound really simple but when you've struggled with disordered eating and serious eating disorders for most of your life, it's fucking huge.
