I started this journey April 8, 2011 weighing in at 271.9 and today I am down to 219.1. I have been stuck for a week with no loss and decided I need to motivate my self by sharing some pics. I am not going to loss this battle and I will reach my goal weight!! It is not easy to lose this weight but with dedication we can do this. If I can help just one person see that there is hope then I have done what I set out to accoplish.

    Hi Beckers454. Congratulation on your loss.

    Results come in all forms. Inches loss and even strength gained are good results.

    First off I want to say congrats. It is always hard to loose weight. I am at that same spot as you. I start february 1, 2011 at a weight of 285. I have hit so many platues but this one is by far the worst. I am at 216 or 217 but i have been there for a month now. i have tried everything from burn 300 more calories eating less. I am stuck and lost about it. I hope you get through yours. Please add me to your friends list it looks like we have things ion common. :)

    Congratulations! You look terrific. You've made tremendous progress and it REALLY SHOWS. You should be proud of yourself. And you have just inspired me. I just started the end of July and have 60 lbs. to lose. My first week I lost zero....now that was a HUGE disappointment. So, tomorrow is weigh in #2...and I'm getting nervous. I've really worked my butt off this week, minding my calories and have really exercised hard, so I should see a loss. You've just given me the inspiration I need even if the scale doesn't move. Thank you!!! You beautiful woman! Please friend me.
