ai hunny...hang in there  

I know how you feel, but remember we need to make this our normal life. try setting more realistic goals which you can conquer and make part of your lifestyle. this is the new you, you are not going back to the old Brandon. YOU CAN DO THIS! 

You are worth all of your hard word. Don't forget that 

I'm surrounded by tiny people who don't even have the word 'diet' on their vocabulary, they eat everything that is anything and they just don't gain weight.. I feel you, but I have to agree with Cheron on this one..we just have to make this our normal 

You and me both  

Just do what you can and dont beat yourself up if your day is not "perfect" Depending on your state of mind and energy levels..some days are just better than others. So long as you keep sight of your goal and never ever give up. 

Im with Palesa. What's your normal? Keep your goal in sight, you are never alone. 

My normal is going to be 80kg with a lot of excess skin. Sure I'll be healthier, but I'll still be unattractive. Its so disappointing to work so hard towards your goal and only to realise when you reach your goal you're still going to depressed. I've lost like 43kg and I'm not even halfway, it's really disappointing. I appreciate all the comments here, it's been a rough couple of months, but i couldn't have done it without everyone on FS❤️ 

Bro, you lost all that 42kg in an extremely short time. No wonder you feel like you do. I take my hat off to you for your perseverance, but go easy on yourself. You're already winning, and every lifestyle change is a battle until it becomes a habit. Chin up, don't think about loose skin and all the other bullsh!t. Just keep the next 500g in your sights. PM me for any advice if you need to. 

Hi Brandon, I have lost about 30kg and I do have a lot of loose skin, but I still prefer my body now to the one I had, it is all about self love and acceptance, good luck on your journey and don't losr hope! 

Don't give up!! You are doing well.  

Well done! Done get down in the dumps! Be proud of yoir progress even if its hard its worth it. 

Feel exactly the same , without the results 

Well done on the good loss. Just keep on going - we all in the same boat 

You've done amazingly! And you will have a normal life, it won't be the same life but it will be normal to you and it will be better than what you had before 

I know what you mean. Have been feeling the same way as well. In a way I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one to feel the frustration, but I'm hoping this phase passes. For the both of us.  

You're an inspiration <3 

Brandon you inspire me. I also have a long way to go!
