14.2857 stone for you lot
How many marbles is that?
Getting there over Christmas is impressive.
Ohh. Excellent point. I know I haven't made great Choices this season. ;-)
Hell yeah! Nice work
thank you :)
great work!
I've got good news and bad news for you :
Bad news : You missed out on celebrating going below 100kg
Good news : You are probably going to be overweight soon (if not already)
you know what? funny you mention that - i likely just got below 100kg around this time last year :)
i’ve lost about 39 pounds since may 2024 i believe? 21 pounds since january 2025 i think, and 15 pounds since august after i lost my shit finding out i had gained some lost weight back and my a1c hadn’t budged at all even though i’ve been working my ass off to lose this weight
still have about 18 more pounds or so until i’m in overweight territory and as you can tell it has been sloooooooowwwww. i have a lot of major health issues and for most of this past decade no matter how hard ive tried ive only gotten sicker and sicker and sicker. this is the first year in years where i’ve finally seen more progress in my health rather than regress.
i also have an upcoming appointment to check for endometrial cancer as i have bled almost every single day this year since january 6th and my endometrial lining looks huge but doing a biopsy was pushed off all year because of my age, until the most recent ultrasound where it looked way worse and my doctor was like “haha fuck”. which i know with the weight loss it’s like “did i do this or am i just dying of cancer lmao”. but there have been certain very recent positive changes that, in my very unprofessional opinion, i wouldn’t expect to see if i had cancer / the cancer was getting worse. i hope it’s not cancer, but if it is, my mind and body are in a much better position now to handle potential cancer treatment than they were one year ago. it’s been a very significant year for me. i haven’t felt like i’ve had so many reasons to feel good about myself in a very, very long time.
as you can tell it has been sloooooooowwwww.
That's not slow.
Cutting weight is one of the hardest things to do in life. With drugs you can just quit completely. With food you have to engage in long term behavioral change while still consuming it. Your dedication to your health is a massive achievement that most people never accomplish.
The fact that you cut 39lb in 1.5yr is a perfect pace and you're so much more likely to carry habits, motivation, and keep it off long term versus a crash diet. You've accomplished something really, really impressive!
The endometrium is a mystery to modern medical science. Your mindset seems like a good one so whatever may come, stick to it!

Mate; good fuckin’ work. You’re a champion. Looking after yourself is the first step towards looking an after others. Keep it up!
Looking after yourself is the first step towards looking after others
that’s been one of my motivations :) i have a wonderful, but very picky senior kitty who has a lot of food allergies and now needs frequent medication. i always worry that if something happens to me, she’ll be put down since she’d be harder to adopt out. not to mention she loves me very much and i don’t want her to be sad. fediverse cat tax?
i would also love to be in a place where i can have more pets and a family someday
and i’ve experienced and witnessed a lot of injustice being as sick as i have all these years. i don’t want anyone to go through what i’ve been through. i’ve thought about getting into politics a lot. and i’ve thought about taking another shot at entering the medical field. not in any position where i can work yet, so i still have time to think about all of that.
Congratulations!
thank you :)
Now if you eat a person that weighs 100 pounds you'll still be under 300 pounds.
I'm assuming you won't eat the bones, so I'm not sure how much under 300 pounds you'd be, but that's a pretty big accomplishment.
Assuming you want to and will eat a person. I don't know why you would. I wouldn't. But that's the lay of the land for you right now.
Hell, if you ate Ariana grande you probably wouldn't even hit your pre weight loss weight.
Really makes you think, you know?
Congrats on the weight loss. And for not eating people.
That's ridiculous the bones are the best part
Having never eaten anyone I wouldn't know, but I'll take your word for it, as I don't plan on ever eating anyone.
Ever had soup or jello? Its kinda like that /s

Let's Goooooooooooooo!
Good stuff!
My man, well done, keep up the great work!
Big congratulations! Always happy to see someone achieve a health related goal!
Congratulations you skinny son of a bitch, Keep at it!!
Congrats! 🎉 Hitting a milestone and seeing better numbers is huge—keep doing whatever’s been working for you. Under 200 club ✅
Congrats on making it to one-derland!
Being able to stand up from the floor under your own power without making a bunch of horrible noises is such a satisfying accomplishment.
Well done, good sir!
May I join you in the sub 200 club soon
My relatives called it ONE-derland, because all the weights start with 1.
Congrats to the OP! I hope every new resident of ONE-derland got here through healthy means and is here to stay.
Congratulations!
Feeling with you, my dude, I am broke also...
Can you wait a few days to post this? Tisn't Wednesday, my dude!
Joke aside, very well done my dude! I wish you the best of discipline and luck on your journey
I haven’t seen that number in this millennium.
Fuck Yeah! Congrats, that's awesome!
Congrats!
Very nice. Especially around this time of year.
I don't think it's worth bragging that you have less than $270.
Congrats, that’s awesome! You’re an inspiration to me!
Way to go! I have, uh, a long history with inability to control my weight in exciting new ways and I am always excited to see purple achieve what I cannot.
You'll find a system that works for you, eventually. You only have to win once.
