I thought I'd start a thread for myself so I can keep accountable to y'all. Profile pics are just too small and it's too easy for me to hide in them! :smile:

Here's where I am today. I've been on MFP 75 days and have lost 21.5 pounds. The good news is that it's been pretty easy. I haven't been starving myself. The bad news is that I haven't exercised as much as I should. That's definitely something I intend to work on over the next 75 days.

I know there's not a HUGE difference -- after all, 21.5 pounds off a 322 pound woman is but a drop in the bucket -- but I am finally starting to see a difference. Taking these pictures has also been the kick in the butt I needed. I've always been secretly proud of my hourglass figure and, well,as you can see, I was fooling myself! I was definitely turning into that dreaded apple shape. That hourglass figure is well hidden and I intend to find it!

This will be my official place to post update photos. Hopefully they'll be a bit of inspiration to others who have a large loss ahead of them!
