95 pounds down - and I’m not done yet.

I wanted to share my weight-loss journey because I know there are probably people here who are where I was not too long ago.
At my heaviest, I was 340 lbs.
I eventually got serious about changing my life and was able to lose 45 lbs naturally, bringing me down to around 295 lbs before I ever added retatrutide.
From there, I’ve continued the journey and I’m currently sitting around 245 lbs — 95 lbs down from my highest weight.
But honestly, the biggest change wasn’t the number on the scale.
I had to learn how to actually diet.
I had to learn what calories were, how to calculate macros, how much protein I actually needed, how to weigh and track my food, how to meal prep, and probably most importantly, how to be consistent when I didn’t feel like doing it.
There were plenty of days where I didn’t want to train. Days where I wanted to eat whatever I wanted. Days where the scale didn’t move and I wondered if what I was doing was even working.
I kept going.
I also started taking my training much more seriously. I’m in the gym 4–5 days a week, getting my steps in, doing cardio, and working toward building an actual bodybuilding physique rather than simply trying to become “smaller.”
That mindset shift has made a huge difference.
I’m not chasing a temporary diet anymore. I’m trying to build a completely different lifestyle.
340 → 295 naturally → 245 today.
95 pounds gone.
And somehow, I’m more motivated now than I was when I started.
I still have a long way to go, but I’m proud of how far I’ve come. The weight loss is cool, but learning discipline, nutrition, consistency, and what I’m actually capable of has been the real transformation.
If you’re at the beginning of your journey right now, don’t underestimate what can happen if you just keep stacking good days.
I’m not finished yet. 💪
