I've made it a habit to share my monthly progress pictures. I take them at the same time every month! I hope that they can inspire someone to not give up!! I give God all the glory for every pound, every inch, every self doubt that I have dropped over the past 6 months!!

    I exercise 4-6 times a week for at least 30 min a day. And I am constantly changing up my diet so I keep my body guessing. I may try just watching my calories for a while, then switch to watching my carbs, then do a variation of Paleo, then maybe go back to just watching calories. Just remember you will hit plateaus & as you get smaller the losing will get slower. BUT don't quit, cause it will come off!!

    Wow! You look great.

    I feel like we're twins (only about 25 yrs apart). I also started in July 2013 at a little over 290 lbs. And my goal weight is between 170 and 180. It also looks like you went through a transformation with your hair in November (as did I)

    You're going to be at goal in no time!! Congratulations on the weight loss.
