Reached 100 pounds lost... Progress pictures

mltdown

I have found myself in emotional rut so I decided that it was time to post more pictures to give myself some motivation. Here is a little background on my journey: I met my boyfriend 5 years ago and in that time I gained over 150 pounds of "love" weight and also had 2 children. Before I knew it I found myself weighing way over 340 pounds... I stopped stepping on a scale after my 2nd son was born in 09'. I hated how I looked and went on way toooo may crash diets only to fail and gain more. In April of 2010 I decided enough was enough! and started making small changes in my life toward the better, but it was in August of this year when my life would change for ever... that is when I found MFP I had lost about 30 pounds between April and August on my own, but with MFP I have lost 108 pounds and it has been the best thing I have ever done for myself. I am now totally addicted to exercise as my outlet to rid myself of stress and I find it fun to shop for healthy foods and think of new ways to cook things. I am starting my love myself slowly but its hard for me to feel much change I still feel like the same person... only a little lighter!! haha I am happy to say that my boyfriend has also lost 30 pounds since I started eating healthy because he also started eating better. I can't thank my friends on MFP enough for all of the support they have given me, if it wasn't for this site I would never EVER be where I am today!! Ok enough talking, the pictures will speak for themselves

This is me April of 2010 at around 340lbs

We all get in ruts, I know I do, the important thing is to be able to recognize that you are in a rut and that you need to change something.

You are looking fitter, healthier and happier in each picture, keep it up!

You should be so proud of yourself. I AM and I don't even know you. You look great and doesn't it jsut feel so good to be taking care of yourself and eating healthy as well as exercising. I sometimes wonder WHY I just don't exercise and eat healthy all the time. I feel like a different person when I do and I feel motivated and happy and most of all HEALTHY. WAY TO GO KEEP up the GREAT WORK. Phyljen:happy: :happy: :happy:
