WOW!! Awesome progress!!!

WAY TO GO!!! That is awesome! I know it feels good doesn't it?!?!! Keep up the excellent progress!!

So, started at 288-290 (start weight on here was listed at 288, but that was really because I didn't want to admit that I was likely 290 when I actually STARTED), and am now 200. In January of this year, I got tired of the weight and decided that it was time to kick it... so here's my journey in 3 pics (so far) - start, down 40lbs and down 88lbs:

288-290lbs


248ish lbs


200lbs (present)


If you are wondering about sizes, I went from a 2-3X shirt to a Large, and from a plus size 24 jean to a regular size 12 jean.

About 50lbs to go!

Yeah... I got this! And so does everyone else here! Keep up the fantastic work and commitment! It can be done!

EDIT: pics fixed. It really would be great if there was a "preview" button to check that everything works before posting... grr... but there 'tis!

I see the pics and you look FABULOUS. Please pat yourself on the back for a job done well. Doesn't it feel great when you set your mind to something and you accomplish that goal?

Thanks all! And after everyone was asking... I'm approx. 5'7" I've always looked a bit lighter than I am... probably because I used to lifeguard and was pretty much all muscle (I could pull at 300lb person out of a pool by myself when I weighed between 170-190)... so yes, I am 200 (well, now 199) in that last pic! Oh - and I wear a "petite" jean, as my legs are super short... I just have an odd proportion, but I've learned to dress it to hide it! Short legs, long torso... it's wonderful to shop for.. ;P
