1 year difference and down 70lbs! No matter what, don’t give up!

This was my 3rd attempt trying to lose weight. I tried in 2023 and again in 2024 between Jan to Jun and couldn’t finish the year. It wasn’t until March 2025 that I finally locked into my diet and stuck it out! This taught me that no matter how many times you fail, you have to keep trying so you can accomplish your goals!

Progress

Once in a while I have to take some pictures to remind myself that the calorie deficit and the weights are working. Been upset at the scale not moving this year ,but body recomp is definitely happening ! from April 2024 to May 2026

2021 vs 2026

Be nice haha, this is my first post here. I’ve always felt more comfortable in looser outfits, but I started going back to the gym in 2025 and I’m slowly learning to love my body more. I’m still a little insecure about my stomach after having a baby in 2023 and struggling to lose fat there, but I’m proud with the progress I’ve made so far.

5'7 350

I want to lose alot o weight, probably down to like 220 but I want to maximize the muscle gains naturally. Be as harsh or as nice as you want when critiquing. These measurements were taken today. When people ask my weight and tell them I'm 350 they said they're very surprised to hear that so I guess that's a positive?
