Answer

I made a post a while back about my journey. This comparison is after losing 15lbs. However, I’m now down 21lbs total (190–>169). My goal is to be 160 by my 30th birthday, May 21st, but we’ll see. I’ve yo-yo’d my whole life. I tried fad diets, pills, slim fast, all the bs “methods” of losing weight and nothing worked long-term. 
This time around I started slow. I actually started with doing yoga for my anxiety. Then I started eating better. Then I started going to the gym...it just kept progressing. Now, I eat really clean and exercise 4-5 days a week. My husband and I meal plan a week a head. I don’t deprive myself of anything, I just eat things in moderation or try to find a way to make it healthier. I’m really amazed at my success. I want to keep pushing myself to be healthier and stronger.
It’s all about changing your lifestyle and finding what works for you. Even the smallest of changes can have a huge impact. Good luck! 😊

Answer

I was on a really bad space mentally and decided to start work on myself.  I met with a PT and trained 3-4 times a week and cleaned up my eating.
Meal prep really worked for me but the main thing was being in the right ‘headspace’ to lose weight.  It really is a mind over matter thing and you need to be doing it for the right reasons.
One thing I will say is that your eating habits are key, exercise just boosts your weight loss and helps to let your body into a better shape.
I wish you all the best with your journey - it’s hard but so worthwhile.
Info: I lost about 56lbs and have more or less maintained my weight for the last 12 months
