Weight loss seems simple on paper—calories in, calories out. Burn more than you consume, and the numbers on the scale should drop. But in reality, it’s far from easy. Busy schedules, demanding jobs, and endless responsibilities can make it tough to cook nutritious meals or find time to exercise. And that’s not even counting the health challenges that can complicate the journey.
Reaching one’s goal weight takes immense dedication and perseverance, so it’s only right to celebrate those who make it happen. Today, we’re doing just that with a collection of incredible transformations shared by people online. Show them some support, and remember—every body deserves kindness!

I've Been Losing Weight Since Last October, Down Nearly 90lbs!
Started the dieting in October, started working out 2-3 days a week in March (I love weight training!) And currently doing a 30 day challenge to visit the gym every day, 14 days so far! My back doesn't hurt as much, I'm sleeping better, and I can walk up stairs without getting winded lol. I still have a long way to go, but these results are encouraging.

Ethan Inspired My 150lb Weight Loss Journey! Also Thank You Gamersupps
Started my journey at 340lbs. 1st pic is me at 300lbs, 2nd pic is me currently at 190lbs. Started in August 2022 and hit my goal at February 2024. Been maintaining these last few months. I lost it by counting calories, intermittent fasting, and lots of walking at my job. I’ve struggled with losing weight my whole life. It is possible! Thank you everyone.

Also Olivia is the Queen.

#19 F/36/5’5” [450lbs > 247lbs] (11 Months) I Said I’d Update You All On My Journey So Here It Is!

F/36/5’5” [450lbs > 247lbs] (11 Months) I Said I’d Update You All On My Journey So Here It Is!
Firstly I want to thank you all for how kind you were to me when I posted my first post. I’ve looked back at it so many times on low motivation days and your comments have kept me going. When I posted in July I was around 150lbs lost, I’ve now lost over 200lbs. I’d like to hit 247lbs for the year. Really looking forward to hopefully hitting my goal of 180lbs by next year sometime.

I just want to say how much easier life is 200lbs down, my health including my mental health has improved so much and I feel like I’m living life again. My goal this year was to buy a Christmas jumper in a normal shop and for the first Christmas ever I did! I hid my face the first time I posted because I was embarrassed that I’d let myself get to 450lbs but I’m bloody proud that 450lb me decided to make the change because look how clear I’ve come! Thank you for everything progress pics sub and here’s to a healthy and happy 2025!
