Half way there...

When it finally dawned on me to lose weight, I was 17st. At 5ft8, that's very not good.

I've been dieting healthily and doing plenty of exercise so I think 2st 7lbs in 4 months is pretty good.

I'm posting some before and after pictures, mostly because I am so horrified I was ever that big in the first place it'll shock me into taking better care of myself. I'm the one in red in both photos.

2st 7lbs to go before next June, when I'm going to buy my wedding dress.

    Lady in Red! You look incredible, not only have you lost weight but you seriously look younger, I'm constantly amazed by how much younger people look!!

    I know what you mean about being horrified that you ever weighed as much as you did, I feel the same every time I see old photos of myself (I look at them every few nights because they really ARE a huge motivator to never go back there again!!!).

    Can't even imagine how gorgeous you're gonna look in your wedding dress. I'm so proud of you!!!
