in Success Stories
I just wanted to share a progress pic from the last 5 months. I started on January 2, 2013 at 223. Weighted in today at 183. I have found soo many motivating pictures in the success stories forum that I figured I would post and maybe inspire people to keep pushing! I have given up many times but this time I am in it! 40 lbs down, 40 lbs to go!

    Awesome. Very inspiring. I am starting where you started so it gives me hope. I've only been at it for a month, so still a long journey for me.

    Do you mind me asking how tall you are and what type of workouts you did?

    I am 5'7" and I have actually been working with a trainer 3 times a week for 45 minutes each session. Some weeks I went an additional day on my own and some weeks I went an additional 2 days on my own. Its been a good bit of cardio and weight training. We have specific days we do things monday is legs, wed upper body, friday core. I haven't done a whole lot of just one thing. The nice thing about having a trainer is that they know sooooo many variations to exercises that you don't do the same thing often!

    Wow, what a difference from 40 lbs! You look fantastic!

    You are the same height and starting weight as my best friend (she's not on MFP), and have much the same build. So I can kinda see what losing 40 lbs will look like on her -- in 8 weeks she's lost 10 lbs and is down a size in pants already.
