Reached my second major goal today!!! I am so excited! I got on and off the scale about 6 times, then finally got off and did a happy dance around my bathroom!! I weigh in my undies so... I'm glad no one else seen that! **LOL**
I started my journey weighing 204.8 and I'm 5'7 for reference! My first big goal was to be 170. That's exactly what I wanted to be when I first started and I made it when I thought I never would!!
Then it was to be 160... and I made it!!
I began having this problem where I look in the mirror and say " Whoa, how can I have lost 50+ pounds and still look the same!! Whats wrong with me", then I look at my before picture and I realize that "No, I do NOT look the same!! This is really happening for me and I'm doing it the healthy way. Living a lifestyle change, not a diet!"
Now today I weigh 150.8!!! I am so proud of me!! * 9.8.2010*
When I first started I felt miserable and I remember crying myself to sleep because it was SO hard and I knew for sure I wouldn't even be strong enough to lose 10 lbs and look at me, I've lost 53 so far!!!!!
I wanted to share a comparison photo for ya'll... sooo....
So, I wanted to say to all of you who may have really bad days, who think they aren't strong enough and that you'll never do it.. YOU WILL, YOU ARE STRONG ENOUGH,you have the willpower and your bad days will get better.
Tomorrow is always a new fresh day and you will succeed. Please NEVER EVER give up. You can be ANYTHING you want to be. You have the choice, so choose it!
I am so thankful for this site, for the people I've been blessed with and the people I've learned from on here. My journey has been amazing and I still have some to lose, but today is the day where I realize all the days I had sore muscles, the days I was still hungry, but had no calories left that it was all worth it. That my life will be longer, my smile will be bigger and I will be happy with who I see in the mirror!
Stay beautiful!!!

Keeping the heavy pictures is a must. I always want to delete them, but they are our starting points, and a sorce of encouragement when we feel we are not making a difference. You have done a fantastic job. You look Great, and probably feel so much more confidence & energy. Way to go. Keep the pics, post them somewhere. Last night I was hungry when I went to bed. I usualy eat so much fruit & veggy that it is hard to use up my cal's but chinese food limited my volume. I didn't eat, and was feeling deprived. Not any more. My 50 pounds are going to be worth it too.
Thanks for sharing I needed the inspiration this morning.0 -

I have had the same problem where I say to myself... How can I have lost 50 pounds and still look so fat! I just have to sit down and think about who I used to be and all of the changes I've made. Looking at old pictures really helps me realize I've changed! You're right- you don't look the same at all! You look awesome! Congrats!0
