I have desired to post in this thread for Lord knows how many years. I have always looked at the several amazing pictures people have posted and wanted to be one of those people. I can now post my progress and feel so incredibly proud!! On March 1st 2018 the day of my delivery of my beautiful boy I weighed in at 230lbs. I now weigh 197 pounds! Now you are probably wondering what I weighed when I got pregnant. I weighed 217 pounds just to answer that lovely question. I struggle with emotional eating so losing weight for me has been one large hurdle. The lowest I got down to was 180 and that was before the lose of my mother. My weight went up and down like a roller-coaster so hitting this milestone was a huge deal, and seeing the comparison only encourages me to keep going. If I could give any advice I would say to never compare yourself to anyone. We all lose weight at different paces and our body types are significantly different. I am 5'6 and hope to be 140 at the end of this journey. Two kids and one marriage later I can honestly say IF I CAN DO IT SO CAN YOU!
