F/25/5’8’’ 176 > 147 = 29lbs 8 months. I lost about 30 lbs tow years ago and I’ve been maintenance for about a year!

I’ve was always thin in high school and then I went to college and slowly started gaining weight (I’d say about 5 lbs a year) but about two years after college, I really noticed that I had gained all the weight and decided to do something about it. I started weight lifting 5 days a week and eating about 1200-1500 calories a day until I hit my goal weight. Now I eat about 1500 - 1800 a day for maintenance (just depends on my activity level). Not really really interested in losing more weight but excited to keep building muscle (which has been a challenge with the gyms being closed).

Ps please don’t mind the most shower hair in the second picture lol.
