So technically I'm over 1/2 way by 1.6 lbs....but who's counting? LOL

I started out on January 25th with weight watchers online, lost 40 lbs in 4 months. Was referred to this site and I've been using the MFP program ever since and lost another 44 lbs. I have went from a size 24 to a 16-18 (depending on brand) even some 14's fit now........(from a 3-4x to a large x-large by size) I feel so much better........but I still have a LONG LONG WAY TO GO YET.

anyway here are some photos:

This would be the fattest picture I have of myself, it was taken in november 2009 so just 2 months before I started to lose weight.

June 19th my mom got married so I had these pictures.....not really good full body ones but I hope you can see enough of me. I'd lost
56lbs by then.

Fast forward again another 2+ months to Aug 28th and I had lost another 20 lbs.....so approx 76lbs n this picture. I actually lost 5lbs the week of this wedding.....so the following thurs at weight in I was at a loss of 81 lbs total.

here are some random photos I took a couple weeks ago as I was going through all my big clothes to give away.

    Great job! Try adding shakeology chocolate shakes to our diet. They are even in this database. go to www.theperfectshakes.com and read and view the shakeology info. I started these shakes into my diet a week ago and lost 2.5lbs in a week. The idea behind them is that the shake has the alot of veggies, fiber, protein, probiotics and natural ingredients that will satisfy the body nutritionally to stop the food cravings. The probiotics will help your digestion and regularity. Basically the shakes give your body what it needs and wants so it needs for nothing else. you can also do a 3 day cleanse on these shake too. 3 shakes a day with fruit as a snack and a nice salad for dinner. I didn't do that but I plan on it real soon. a friend of mine loss 5lbs in a week and the weight didn't come back (this included excercise too!) Hope this helps! It has helped me and many others. Get the chocolate, it taste way too good to be this great for you. Don't let the price throw you for too big of a loop. It works out to $4 a shake. That's really not that bad for a meal replacement. 140 calories 14g of protein.

    You should be so proud of yourself ... and you are truly an inspiration. It makes me realize that getting on the scale one week and not losing isn't the end of the world ... hey I didn't GAIN either so that's good right?!

    You are so brave to take this on. It is hard work ... and you deserve all the accolades given to you! Keep us posted and keep going!
