Hey you! Need some motivation??? :)

TamTastic

I have tooted my own horn before but wanted to toot in a way to help motivate some of you who feel overwhelmed by weight loss.

Anyway, under my profile pics, I have one of right before I started this journey last September and one from this past Wednesday. The difference is amazing! The one last September, I am pretty big, trying to hide behind my then 9 month old son!! HEHE!, and even in August my color isn't good..I am red and blotchy.

As of this past Wed, hiking with my friend with our boys (they got to ride in the stroller), I am much healthier and active. I am on the Left in the pic...SHE is the pregnant one on the Right! hehe BUT, she is an inspiration to me to be a healthier pregnant woman this time around. Last time, I started my pregnancy at 250 lbs! I did OK, but WOW!

Anyway, I hope this helps some of you who have a lot of weight to lose, know that it can be done and you don't have to suffer and you can live a healthier, active life.

Take care of yourselves!!

Oh, that makes more sense. :laugh: Good for you, all since September! I lost 30 lbs from my heaviest, then 10 more after I joined this site. I am THIS CLOSE to breaking into the 100s (currently 201).

That is awesome!! It's a great feeling, I have to say...though March and April have been tough months for me!! It's like I inched towards the 100's..then have inched through the 190s! hehe it is teasing me!

Great inspiration! And isn't it great the way our bodies change shape with eating properly and getting in some exercise! You look fabulous! I can't wait to see how I will look in the end!!!
