Hi!
So I finally got some pictures together for my before and after... This is a big deal for me and I'm very nervous about putting fat pictures of myself out for the world to see! But at the same time, I never thought I would get here and I'm super proud of myself.. So here it goes!

I'm 5'4" and started at 165lbs I guess it would be in April is when I really got myself together.. I'm ashamed to say I had tried a lot of weight loss "systems" before.. Pills, meal replacements, barley eating.. You name it.. and even if they worked for a bit, I would gain it all back. So after many many hours of research on the internet, and just getting tired of trying and failing.. I joined MFP, joined a gym, got videos to do when I didn't make it to the gym, and just started making better choices about what I eat. It probably seems like a long time for me to have lost just 25lbs.. But it was a lot of learning and trial and error to find what really works for me and I'm so happy now. So now I'm 137lbs which is lower then I ever thought I could be and I still strive to push myself as much as I can everyday. So I guess thats the low down..

Thank you so much to everyone here who has been such a great support system for me! I have learned so much, you all are amazing people =)

    I think it's just the way her left arm is positioned.

    Looking awesome, girl! You looked pretty before though, too!
