May 2013 was my "ah-ha" moment of truth. This was the very picture that caused my moment. I'm proud of my progress for sure. I'm not finished yet though. I still have another 85lbs to go until I'm where I want to be.

That's AMAZING!!!! Congratulations! How did you do it? I need to lose 50lbs but I can't imagine doing it so quickly! (It's taken me 3 months to lose 13 Lbs!)

Thank you! I work out 4-5 times per week with a mix of cardio and strength. I track everything on here during the week but give myself a MFP break on the weekends, still eating healthy and making good choices, but I think it's helped me not get burned out. I started at a pretty high weight too so it comes off fairly quickly, I think the next 50lbs will go much slower Good luck!

I actually worry about what my face will look like with my weight loss. I'm 44-years-old and sometimes I think as one has become "skinny" at my age, the face tends to look sunken in. I think a fuller face, (I don't mean with double chin or anything) is more attractive. Anyone else feel this way?

I absolutely share the concern! I have dark circles under my eyes all the time anyway, and when I lose weight, they get worse. And a couple years ago my fiancee lost a lot of weight. My mom actually wanted me to "make" him eat more, because she thought he looked sickly. We were working on weight loss together, but as I look back at those photos now, I realize he did look a bit sallow and older when his face was thin. But as others have said... I know the difference in how I FEEL when I am making healthy choices, and I think that's gonna have to be more important.

...until I win the lottery and can afford to have some plastic surgery to fill in those circles! LOL!

You can actually really help yourself out with some good skincare products - it won't take care of the weight loss in your face, but it can certainly help with the dark circles, those fine lines that show up when the skin isn't plumped up etc. It's done miracles for me over the past year, and I'm not talking about makeup but just basic skincare - good cleanser, good creams, retinol and a bomb moisturizer and sunscreen.
