Re:How I lost 100lbs in 6 months on Saturday March 18, 2017 @03:17PM (#13902980)
Lost 26kg (25% of my weight) in 2013. Doing great so far. Stepping on the scales every day makes sure that weight gain doesn't creep up on me.
That insight gave me more confidence. Before 'Quiet', I wouldn't allow myself to act a certain way or would feel bad if I did.

One simple example: as an introvert, I would get tired at parties or gatherings of bigger groups. Before 'Quiet', I would try leave unnoticed (slightly embarrassed from leaving so early). Or I would stay and feel increasingly worse. Now I'm better aware of what's going on inside me. I feel more confident and leave. Or I find a quiet corner, read a book on my iPhone for 20 minutes, and get back to the group.
