23(F) Lost 54 lbs over the last 8.5 months, still wanting to join the Navy, (75 lbs to go)

Over the last 8 1/2 months I have been working towards losing weight in attempts to join the military I just wanted to post a update from my first Reddit post. It has definitely been a struggle especially with Covid and my gym closing, however it is re-open now and today I ran my fastest mile time since I was in middle school.

I am 5’6”, 235lbs currently.

My goal weight is 180lbs, with an ultimate goal of 160lbs. My journey has taken a lot longer than I expected but I am OK with that and I understand I am doing it in a healthy manner.

I have had lots of plateaus especially during the strict stringent lockdown in March/April, but I have gotten back on track and I’m doing things I never thought I would be capable of doing.

I run or walk at least 2 miles every weekday and I swim most days. I eventually want to add in weightlifting but I don’t wanna do it by myself and I’m having a hard time justifying paying a personal trainer, but I feel like I almost need to so I don’t injure myself.

Thank you guys on this page for your encouragement and support. You all help so many people all the time. 🖤
