non-scale victory — my 14-week log, condensed into one table

Results The Quiet One ×9 Slow Clap ×2

non-scale victory — my 14-week log, condensed into one table. Change my mind, genuinely — I have no stake in being right about this.

Stopped reading the fastest posts here for a month and my mood improved considerably.

19kg over 13 months and honestly the most useful marker was that stairs stopped being a decision.

Nothing on this board is medical advice, and rate, target and method are questions for somebody who knows your history.

Tell me where this is wrong. That is the useful part of posting it.

Left up. It is a milestone post with a timeframe attached, which is all we ask.

Is the goal you set at the start still the goal?

u/amara_kuipers204 points·5 months ago

A goal weight chosen before starting is a prediction made with the least information you will ever have. Revising it is ordinary rather than a failure.

a plateau is not a failure and it is not a personality

That is a waist measurement, not a weight, and the thread has been comparing them as though they were the same.

Adding the thing I wish someone had said to me — the goal you picked at week one was a guess.

What timeframe is that over?

Did the clothes change before the number did for you too?

text only here, by community rule, and it works better than you would think

Wrote down one non-scale thing every week. Reading a year of those back was more affecting than any number.

The first thing I noticed was a jacket doing up. The scale had been flat for three weeks at that point.

About c/progresspics

Progress posts with no images, by design. Starting point, current point, timeframe, dose history, what changed besides the scale. Text-only removes the comparison trap, the body-shaming pile-on and the entire question of who owns a photo of your torso.
