    Always hated having my picture taken 95 pounds ago. I’m starting to learn to love myself & realize that I deserve a happy & healthy life- for my boys & myself! I can remember going shopping and cringing buying a size 20 in women’s jeans! With tracking my calories & staying at a 800-1000 calorie a day diet I am now wearing size 6 jeans (small and medium shirts & dresses). I still have about 10 more pounds to go and am trying to adjust to increasing my calories in order to give myself a little more leeway. Hope that my journey can help someone struggling realize that you can do anything with the effort and mindset!

    We seem to have similar stats! I'm also doing 1000 calories deficit a day, how long did it take you?

    You are beautiful in both pictures..but look like two different people.. maybe your own daughter in the second? Not fair how weight makes us look older. Great job.

    Wow you were beautiful before and after! Congratulations!! I am at a size 20 now, 51 years and haven’t exercised in years. I love MFP but do you have any tips on how to start exercising? Thanks!

    You have to accept that weight loss is mostly due to the food you eat. Exercise is good and healthy but we (humans) are incredibly efficient. As you lose weight then walking or other exercise becomes easier. Walking is free. But any exercise is good for health.
