30 Pounds lost in 6 months... pics!

I'm taking this journey slowly because I'm trying to change my lifestyle, not just diet and gain the weight back in a week. I've been meeting my calorie goal almost every day and exercising 4-5 a week. I lost 15 pounds before downloading MyFitnessPal when I went through some health problems, and decided to make my health a priority. This app has helped me shed an additional 20 pounds!

First pic... 235 pounds, size 24 pants
Second pic... 205 pounds, size 16 pants

Btw, I tried to get my friends and family to join my journey with me on this app, but so far everyone has flaked out after only a few days. I need some friends to hold me accountable! I have an open diary, so feel free to add me :smile:

    Great job! You look tiny! I know it can be hard for others to be supportive bc it means they have to admit they're doing something wrong.

    Great Job!!
  • I can tell a huge difference! I started out 30 pounds heavier than you. It sure is motivating to know that 30 pounds lost is so noticable! Please feel free to send me a friend request. I would love to follow and encourage your journey! :smile:

    Yeah friends and family suck when it comes to joining up from my experience. I know several people who see how excited I get about the whole thing, then they get excited too, sign up, then just don't bother. I'd happily just let it go but it just reminds me how uncommitted they are. But also fills me with a sense of awesomeness for my own commitment.

    And well done on your lost. Feel free to add me.
