So I don't want to make this to long so I get right to it. These pictures are my first day of school from one year to the next. I have been on my journey for almost 7 months now and have lost about 45 pounds! I started MFP on 1/20/13 at 285 and currently I am at 239.3! I was shocked when I saw the difference because some days (who am I kidding most days) I feel just a big as I was when I started. Just want to let everyone know this do-able and really someone who was been fat for what seems forever is now a little less fat.

    **LOVE** this. You look so happy in both pictures.

    I completely understand the feeling where you feel just as pudgy as before. Sometimes it can seem like ages.You've achieved so much, and you're rocking those scrubs.

    You look fantastic! I know what you mean by still feeling the same fatness. I have lost a few pounds, but I have not yet taken any before after shots. It may sound stupid, but the reason is because I don't want to be dissapointed at the the results. I have always hated taking pictures as it is, so it's hard to look at them for me. Maybe when I lose about 20 more lbs i will take another pic. Keep up the good work, way to stay consistent!
