Hi there! I've been an MFP member in the past (for many years on and off) but have been consistently using and logging for 6 months now. I am not very active on the forums, besides a private group that I'm in (but I do browse) but I especially love this thread. I told myself a while ago that once I hit my halfway mark, I would post my success story. So here it is:
A little background: I am 5'10" and have been bigger my whole life. I am very large framed and will never be "skinny". I finally had enough (for many reasons) back in April and decided it was time to be healthy and the best version of me that I could be! Still a work in progress, but here are a bunch of before and after photos (I don't have a lot of good side by sides, so this will have to do):
BEFORE:
AFTER:
I hope my small little story will help motivate! It can be done! I didn't think I would ever be successful at losing weight. But here I am! almost 80 lbs less than I was 6 months ago and over halfway to my goal! I am happier than I've been in a long time!!
