I decided to get brave and post my before picx now that I've learned how. What an eye opener they are! The first picture was a "before" picture from a couple of years ago at my last attempt to lose weight. Now it will be a comparison pic when I get down to that weight again (and then surpass it!)

    great progress so far! You can do it!
  • You can do it!! You're off to a great start with -8!
  • The pictures are the BEST things to help you realize that you want a change! I commend you for taking the leap and sharing this journey with us! This is great because you're going to be that example for your babies of how to live healthier and better! YOU CAN DO THIS! Like a post above wrote, STICK WITH US, baby...you're on a good journey! Best of wishes to you! Keep up the work and keep us updated! Take care!
  • Very brave but well done, such good motivation for you...I may try the same in the next couple of weeks ...

    I started loosing when I hit 315 pounds...put some back on then lost it again last year and am now down to 233lbs. Still have 107lbs to loose to get back to a healthy weight. I know now it can't be done overnight and has to be a permanent change in lifestyle through nutritional education, calorie counting and exercise....it's tough but I'm determined to get another 50lbs off next year. would love to make some diet buddies who are in for the long haul so add me if you think we have something in common.

    Second of all...you are already approaching 10lbs down and you've only just begun! I have already witnessed you cleaning up your food habits from bad choices and large portions to a diary I NEED TO FOLLOW. BRAVO MY DEAR!

    Nobody said it will be a short journey, but you definately are taking the right road this time!
