I'm not at my ultimate goal of 120 yet, but here is my progress so far. I was totally in denial before and didn't even think I was big, when I was actually obese! My BMI was at 30.8 and now it is at 23.8

Anyway, before and after pics.

    Thanks! I dieted, that's really it. I eat less than 1000 cals a day and try to limit carbs. I only drink water.
    I'm so bad with exercise, I hate it. I guess if you count riding my bike, I exercise, but I don't count that because for me that's just transportation.

    It is, I love it! My boyfriend used to not like me in jeans, because I had a muffin top so I always wore dresses that flattered my larger figure. Now he is asking me to wear jeans more lol!

    Sad to say I haven't actually been using MFP that much. I only wanted to share my weight loss.
    I am horrible at keeping track of what I eat, so I just eat the same thing every day, with some variation.

    I just eat homemade hot and sour soup with sriracha and kimchi, a whole pot has 150 cals so I can eat as much as I want and lose weight.
