Since today is JULY 1st lets reflect back on the first 6 months of the year.

Here are some questions I thought up:

How much weight did you lose JAN-JUNE?
Did you hit goal or have you maintained goal the entire 6 months?
How close to goal are you?
What is the biggest Non scale victory AND scale victories you have achieved?
Anything that surprised you? (Good or bad)
Anything disappointing that happened?
And lastly what are you looking forward to most the next 6 months?

Feel free to answer any or all of these questions or just share how the first 6 months of 2026 has gone for you in your own words!!

My answers:

The first 6 months of 2026 has a lot more physical changes for me compared to last year. Even when the scale wasnt moving I could see changes and in general feel amazing. Ive lost 34lbs so far, (total 172.2lbs) and im moy yet at goal but will hit it in the next 6 months. Im 28lbs from my OG goal of 140 and 33lbs from my maintenance goal of 135.

Biggest scale victory for me is being in the overweight bmi catergory at 168.6!! And biggest non scale victory is I am FIRMLY out of plus size clothing wearing size 10/12😮‍💨 I can shop at most places though some stores ive noticed stopped carrying above size 12/13 now which really sucks. As much as im happy im out of plus sizes its still sad that there are not that many places for plus size shoppers.

One thing thats really crazy to me is that im at the point where every 10lbs really does show! I always felt that was so untrue but it really isnt.. And finally IM SO READY TO HIT GOAL AND GO SHOPPING!!!!!! 🫰🏾😏😮‍💨😝

Body changes:

Jan 1st 2026 weight: 202lbs
June 30 2026 weight: 168.6lbs

Jan Bust: 40in
June Bust: 39in (this is so sad like wow my cup fr isnt change but hey at least ill still be eligible for a breast reduction this way)
Jan waist: 35in
June waist: 32in (the road to 28 continues, i went from 36 to 34 in 4 months and then 34 to 32 in 2 months, I suspect itll get less and less until I hit goal)
Jan hips: 44in
June hips: 39in

Jeans size jan: 14/16
Jeans size june: 10/12
Shirt size jan: L
Shirt size june: M

Heres to hoping the next 6 months will be even better than the first 6!! (Photos in comments)

Welcome back for another edition of weekly weigh in / NSV THREAD! JULY 1/5

What were the results of your last weigh in? Did you lose, maintain or gain? Any nsv to share?

I was so busy today since its canada day sorry for the delay!! Ill make this thread short today because im going to post a 6 month lookback thread as well!

Ive been so locked in yall I hit 168.6 this week! That means im officially JUST overweight!! I feel great and though my stomach hasnt shrunk as much as I wanted it to I CAN see the changes. I have also started to fit into some size 10s so that is super exciting!! Im at that point where every 10lbs really shows, size 11 (which is smaller than a 12 bigger than a 10) jorts I got last month are already getting too loose on me!! I bought some size 9s 2 weeks ago and they were snug and fit better now. Im so happy im getting closer and closer to goal! I dont want to jinx it but the last 3 months have been solid with 6-7lbs lost each month, I am hoping to keep this momentum all the way to goal. Now I just need a job…

Reduction goal is to hit 140 but ill call to see her when I hit 145!

Lbs left to lose….
23lbs to 145
28lbs to 140
33lbs to 135

Im hitting my goal this yr!

My brother once again hasn’t weighed in but I WILL be forcing him to do so tomorrow

I think im destined to live with my eczema forever. This is week 15 and my eczema hasnt improved. In fact, after i take my shot the next 5-6 days my arms are dryer and itchier. The week I dont inject i start to go back to normal and then it repeats itself. I think im just not destined to have clear skin!

Hey yall! This is a post for people who has significant to lose like 100+ or more!!

Who else is finally in the final stretch. I have 29lbs left to lose. (If i decide to go to 135 then 34lbs) For someone who had to lose at MINIMUM 200lbs total, i never thought i would get to this point especially not within 2.5yrs!! Only those who had or have 100+ to lose can really understand this unbelievable feeling of going from so much to lose to a small number left! Some people only have 30lbs to lose total!! (This is not a dig on yall either im just saying the experience of someone with 200lbs to lose/100lbs vs 30lbs to lose is very different)

My body still doesnt look how i want it to be HOWEVER I can now see the changes more and kore everyday. When people used to say “I need to just lose 10lbs” I would always be confused on how that would change things but im at that point now where 10lbs really DOES show!

Anyways is there anyone else who is in that final stretch with less than 30lbs to go?? How long have you been on this journey? Im cheering you on!!

I am planning to lose the remaining weight this year and continue on my plan to have a breast reduction!!

Welcome back for another edition of weekly weigh in / NSV THREAD! JUNE 4/4

I had a great week and weighed in at 170.8 today! Im officially 2lbs away from being JUST overweight bmi !! Ive been trying to think up ways to make extra money to go towards my breast reduction fees so if anyone has any ideas please let me know!!

25.8lbs to 145, 30.8lbs to 140, 35.8lbs to 135 we are hitting ALL of my goals this year and I WILL be getting my surgery done!! 10.8lbs to my original August 20th goal of 160… in a perfect world I would get to 145 by September but I also need to be realistic here!!

What were the results of your last weigh in? Did you lose, maintain or gain? Any nsv to share?

My consultation did not go well so I had been crying all day yesterday. I hit 173.4 yesterday so i was feeling very optimistic but things took a turn. Essentially i wanted to get the reduction booked from now because I was not sure that when i hit my goal ill be eligible for it anymore. To have it covered in ontario they need to be able to take you down 2 sizes + other medical concerns like back pain etc. The doctor basically said the same thing and wanted me to wait until i hit goal to come back and see but my issue with that is that if i do a lift non covered its $10,000 vs a reduction covered is $0 with optional lipo $3000.

It is very upsetting because i cant afford that at all and so being turned away even tho i am eligible now felt like all my hard work thus far was meaningless.

I am going to see another surgeon for a second opinion but her lipo costs were the cheapest near me other surgeons are $6000+ which is out of my budget sadly. I am going to lose the weight of course but im not sure what to do if i lose from my breasts more than 1 cup size at most… looking back to 2024 i was a DDD then and am still a DDD now just smaller band so i am hoping ill still stay the same but there is no way to know until i get there which sucks.

I ill be putting in the work to get to 140 and go back to the surgeon (or honestly im calling at 145)

28.4lbs to 145, 33.4lbs to 140, 38.4lbs to 135 we are hitting ALL of my goals this year and I WILL be getting my surgery done!! 13.4lbs to my original August goal of 160… in a perfect world I would get to 145 by September but I also need to be realistic here!!

Hello does anyone have any recommendations for doctors who cover ohip breast reductions in toronto or mississauga? A lot of the ones who do ohip NO LIPO REQUIRED are a bit far for me. Saw a surgeon today and need a second opinion on what she said as it wasnt what i wanted

Had my consultation today and it did not go well. The surgeon wants me to wait until i hit my goal weight and lose the last 30lbs, because there is a good chance i wont need a reduction but just the lift at that point but unfortunately the government of ontario will only cover reductions and you have to be able to take down 2 sizes as well. Really upset about it :/

My consultation is tomorrow ive waited 3 months for this appointment!! I am so nervous and anxious though and would really love some encouragement!!

Im going to a surgeon in the Toronto area, hoping to get ohip coverage. I keep having this fear that she will say i am not large enough to be considered, though i am measuring at about a DDD/F. I do have back/neck/shoulder pain and i have gotten rashes before as well (got prescription) but i cant shake this anxiety that she will tell me no and i have to start the process all over again. I have lost 167lbs (with 35 to go) and though they have gone down from the start they still feel way too big and now on top of that they are saggier than they already were!!

Anyways i just needed to vent out my anxieties if anyone has any questions i should ask also please let me know, i have a list but ill still listen!!

Its too damn hot to be hiding your arms, just wear the short sleeve top/tube top/halter top etc!! I know it can be hard to see the loose skin on your arms but i have reached the point where i rather be comfortable than HOT!! (I never had an issue with my arms out even at my heaviest tho i feel a bit embarrassed now it is what it is im still gonna have them out and you should too!)

Welcome back for another edition of weekly weigh in / NSV THREAD! JUNE 2/4

What were the results of your last weigh in? Did you lose, maintain or gain? Any nsv to share?

The last couple threads have had very little replies so checking in on if i should continue to post these threads or not ?

Another week another plateau! Nothing has changed this week. My consultation for my reduction is next week and I wanted to be closer to 173 by then but been stuck at 175 for 2 weeks now! Let’s hope I can get the scale to move before Tuesday. I have been doing my steps but i have realized ive been neglecting my water intake so im gonna raise it and see if that helps!!

35.2 to 140, 40.2 to 135 we are hitting goal this year one way or another!! 15lbs to my August goal of 160…

Is there anyone who lost weight after and didnt have it effect the results? I have 35-40lbs to go, my consult is in 9 days so hopefully i can submit to ohip and get approved by mid july and hopefully schedule my surgery in october, or november (or december) im hoping to be down to my goal weight by then or within 10lbs if my goal i just dont want to have my results ruined! Ive lost 165lbs already and have lots of sagging, but despite that my breasts are still large (when i check the measurements it says im a DD but i went to try 36DD on this week and they def dont fit im spilling out on all sides! I think the loose skin is affecting it all) and uncomfortable. I get rashes and shoulder/neck/back pain. I know losing weight will cause the skin to sag even more but wondering if itll ruin things if i do decide to lose up to 15lbs more after!! Sorry for the long rant im so anxious and nervous for my consult

- in the GTA, Ontario, Canada so i am going through ohip. I started the process from now as there could be long wait times it took 3 months for the consult

Hey guys my consult is in 10 days and i am getting really nervous. I keep having this fear that i dont have enough tissue left after weight loss to get a reduction, and that she will tell me im not eligible to have it covered. I have had back pain and rashes for years and the weight loss has helped lessen it but i still have that, however i dont know if it is enough for ohip coverage (ontario, canada) has anyone gone to a consult and told they dont need a reduction and only a lift? Or anyone who had a minimal reduction and got ohip approved? I am measuring at a DD last i checked but no DD fits comfortable so probably closer to a DDD its hard with the loose skin

How is it June already?? So close to 6 months of the year being completed already! My consultation for my reduction is in 2 weeks officially also.. im nervous i just hope i have enough tissue to go down to like a C cup!

I have been consistent with my 8000-10,000 steps since may 19th and feel like it is definitely working but I need to up my water intake! I am down 1lb since last weigh in but i take that as a win as i have not been back to the 180s in two weeks thank god!

35.4 to 140, 40.4 to 135 we are hitting goal this year one way or another!! 15lbs to my August goal of 160…

My brother is at 228 today! I am STILL trying to get him to drink more water and work out because he has been SLACKING
