Before & After - Rocky Horror Style!

edited January 28 in Success Stories
I sometimes read the success stories on here, and wish that I had taken a 'before' photo when I first joined MFP. Well, I went to see the Rocky Horror Show on Monday, and dressed up (as you do!), I realised when I was putting the photos on Facebook, that I also have pictures from when I went about 4 months before joining here... close enough!

Here they are:

This one was taken in December 2011, I weighed around 11 and a half stone. I didn't realise just how big I looked until I was looking through these last night!

These ones are from this week, I now weigh just under 9 and a half stone. :smile:

I weigh myself everyday and record it on the Hacker's Diet online website. The graph it produces means I can pinpoint every stage of my weight loss journey - I plan to keep it up because I believe it will help stop me from putting the weight on again.
I started weighing myself in January 2012 but I didn't join here until the April. I hit my first target in July and stopped logging for a couple of months, then I decided I wanted to lose a bit more, so I got back on track and lost another half a stone... then Christmas happened! lol. Here's the graph:

    Thanks :smile:

    I just kept to my calories, as long as I did that I didn't really have a problem losing.... I do have problems sticking to my calories now that I only have a few more lb to lose though!

    Love hearing stories. Although I don't know what a stone is equivalent to in weight (I'm from America) I see the difference in your pictures. This helps me to stay motivated. I been going strong for about 6 weeks this time. I hope and pray to continue further improving myself!!! Good job to you!!!!

    1 Stone is 14 lbs. The stone part comes first, followed by the pounds that don't add up to full stone. :)
    So 10 stone 3 would be 143 lbs, if I'm not mistaken. :)
