Ok guys...one goal I set this year is to accept and love my body through every change. I'm not where I want to be but I am making strides daily to improve. May not be evident to everyone else but I have to focus on the positives. puccah8808 knows the depths of my struggles and has been an incredible support for me, as well as MrKleen73 and many of you have supported and encouraged me as well through the past couple of years! Part of what I want to do to reinforce my goal is to take progress pics regardless of the fact I am not at my goal. So here we go...I am currently about 170.

Can't think of a moment I ever doubted you Kat,

Your "goal" is set by you anyways and ever changing. If you are happy with you right now, you've got this.

Ever AM's own little showcase of female strength and tenacity
 
I would have guessed you about 135-140 so you are carrying a lot of muscle (and that's a good thing). Kat you look great and have a big heart, do what you need to do to make yourself happy and I will cheer you on !!

Thank you both so much! I am not happy with where I am but I'm choosing to love and accept where I am vs thinking "oh, I'll be happy when I get there" I have always struggled with self image issues as well as eating disorders. I want to grow past that and have confidence in who I am! Thank you both again for the support and encouragement!! It means more than you now!
 
Keep it up kat looking good that hard work is paying off

Cheers go kat go kat

Sending positive vibes and encouragement

Is that a hammock in ur room
 
Awesome Kat! Look forward to seeing you progress this year and further.
And is that a hammock in your room?!
 
Hahaha you guys are too funny! I won't even try to pretend we aren't kinky freaks ....but I was in my daughters room. She has the only large mirror.

Hey one thing I've learned is, screw every ones opinion of your body. Its all about YOUR opinion.

I tell this to everyone that asks me how to lose weight in the gym.

Its just as much about the journey as it is the destination.
 
Kat, you are a brave woman, a brave human being. Do not feel like you have failed, that's why this is called a journey. Sometimes we take detours in life, sometimes we go off track, but we always know we'll get there eventually.

This "health" journey, "weight loss" journey has got to be one of the most mind fuvking experience anyone will ever experience. Do I regret it? Every single effn day. Do I despise it? Every fcuking day. But do I believe in myself to give it one more try? Every damn freaking day.

When we were at our smallest, we were not happy. We picked at every single flaw we saw, comparing ourselves to everyone. I can tell you, I am heavier now, but my heart, mind, and soul are finally in synced with each other. I am finally at peace.

I use to say this all the effn time.. "Some day, someone will love everything I HATE about myself." That someone was me... I no longer hate myself, and I love everything about myself because i am no longer a prisoner to my thoughts.

This is not to say that I am still not a work in progress, I just don't hate my body any more.

Stay strong, Kat. This is a never ending struggle but you don't have to fight each battle. Love your body a little more every day... You got this! love you!
 
Just dropping in to give you props, Kat. You look great, but more importantly, you have faced your demons head on. I've struggled with the same issues as you over my life and they're not easy to confront. But I've found admitting it makes it easier to move on and make progress. Even if you don't publicly post them, DO continue to take progress pictures. They are so, so helpful to seeing the things you normally would miss. And in hindsight, during my worst times, I have none because I was too embarrassed/ashamed to take them. And now I wish I had them just to see where I'd come from.

Anyway, you look great and we as a community are very lucky to have you (you too, puccah!) around here.
 
Puccah getting deep on us! But agree and feel the exact same way.
Last year was by the first I really concentrated on the positives in my physique and not the negatives.
2017 to being our best physically and mentally

Thanks! You're right! My problem is my opinion is formed (or should I say has been formed) on what I thought others might think of me. Regardless of my size, I have never been happy with myself and it's time for that to change...

Love you girl! It is such a freaking mind battle and it shouldn't be! The mental part is harder than the physical part! Thank you so much for everything and always being there on the good and bad days! You are such an amazing person and friend!

Thank you! It has been hard to face and admit it to you all...I have a tendency to put on the "everything is ok" face and hide the fact I am falling apart. Facing it head on is what I have to do and knowing I have you guys support means the world to me!

It took me a while to accept how I looked. Granted I was skinny. But your opinion shouldn't be adulterated by other peoples opinions. Which I know is very hard.

Its really one of those "fake it till you make it" types of things. Feel free to pm me if you have any questions or just need to talk.

So true buddy
 
Kat you always inspire me to keep going even when I'm fed up with it. Being a shorter guy my weight plays a big mental role on my confidence. That being said no matter how well others see a chance seems I don't see it at all. You have come a long way and will continue to get your goals with your determination. Stay positive as you always do, bc we need yah I know I do!!
 
Love2LiftKat and Puccah8808 sounds like you both need to join the grrrl movement and girlswhopowerlift movement on IG, Superwoman series. I don't know if you know who Kortney Olson is but she is the chick who breaks watermelons with her thighs. recently she has begun a brand and girl empowering movement and it's growing hugely. She has woman all over the world joining and understanding who they are and the power woman truly have, taking it back from those who feel they can tear them down. I stumbled upon it one day and she has collabed with the man himself c.t.flatcher and the Miami Iron Gym. There is a youtube video I'll link for you.

Kat you look amazing at 170, sure you have some things you need and or want to work on but like I told you when I first saw this picture you look great! No way I would have guessed 170 when you told me your weight I was surprised. Keep that head up and be proud of everything you have accomplished. Last year may not have been year of the physique for you but you gained muscle mass and did so while taking on a ton of things with your personal life and starting your business. You made a lot of progress in many areas so be proud of everything you have accomplished over the last year.
 
Thank you guys so so so much for the encouragement and support!!! It really means a lot! This week has been a good week. I have stayed pretty positive. Training and nutrition have both been good this week. Back is mostly healed and able to squat. I haven't attempted heavy deads yet though. I will start a new program next Monday.
 
I broke my rib from coughing too much. I'm out of commission for a while. It's so freaking painful.

Omg! Wow. You got a powerful cough!! That sucks!!
 
Get better little girl !!
 
Ugh that's terrible feel better!!

Omg! Wow. You got a powerful cough!! That sucks!!

Get better little girl !!

Thank you, guys. I've been coughing for 3 weeks due to an allergic reaction to a medication. My sides started getting sore and this morning I felt a pop that just took my breath away. I guess it's pretty common to break a rib from constant coughing. The goal now is to not catch bronchitis or pneumonia.
 
I still can't believe that happened. You need to get your blood levels checked. You may have some vit d deficiency or something. Unless that's common for people to break ribs coughing.
 
Sorry to hear that P!!!!! Praying it heals quickly and your able to get back into it. Had a question for you all. Does anyone or has anyone I should say, ever have extreme bloating daily? I lost all that weight towards middle of yr before and some last yr. Then when I had the carpal surgery on right hand, I gained 12 lbs back. Holidays hit and gained 28 lbs. I'm still hovering around 243 but when I got down to 215 I felt 100 percent better than ever. What's weird is I'm losing in my lower waist again, but from belly button to right under chest, I'm extremely bloated no matter what I've ate or drank. Even got put on prescription Lasix and yet this feeling is painful but very discomfit and is effecting my breathing even when just sitting. I've used yogurt and probiotics but nothing is helping.
