edited October 4 in Success Stories
This was Aug 22, 2011 (I new I was overweight but I look 9 months pregnant in this pic) So I guess reality sunk in after this pic was taken and I must say that when I would see other people that were overweight probably even less than me I would think to myself Oh how can they do anything or looking at them struggling to walk or get out of the car... guess it was time to look at myself in the mirror.. I have a very very long way to go...but I am determined and this is a small success.

Bare with me I know I am still far far from my goal weight but just like I didnt realize how big I really was, I didnt notice how much my body was changing.. this was October 22, 2011

    Wow congrats. I gotta say I'm jealous! 34 pounds is no "mini-goal"... more like "great progress." I'm losing a measly 1 pound a week if I'm lucky

    wow you look fantastic!

    When I saw your first picture I could have been staring at a picture of myself.... I can see how tired your body is just standing there and I can feel the ache in your knees!

    I can't stress to you how important it is that you keep on this road.... I am down a 134 pounds this morning from where I was 18 months ago and I never thought I would get here..... ..... I wish I could trade bodies with you for one day so that you could feel how great it really is to walk across a parking lot without hurting..... believe me.... if I can do it....... so can you... .you just have to believe in yourself..... you own your body... it doesn't own you!

    Stick with it and reach out anytime you need a pick me up or pep talk...

    34 pounds in two months! You are my hero! It'll be two months for me next week, and I'm only down 15. But hey, at least I'm down.:smile: I'm so happy for you. Keep up the good work.

    Thank you....I think my body has gone into shock lol I was a couch potato and even took my kids to school in my car (only 3 blocks from home) and all of a sudden I started walking and doing a 30 minute workout, then started Zumba a few weeks later then started walking more....all this and eating healthy my body thinks aliens invaded it and its losing weight to be able to run away and escape!!!!

    Thank you so much for your post and your photos. I joined at around the same time as you (but didn't take any photos), and it is great to see how much you've achieved in that time.

    I don't regard it as a "small success" - I regard it as a massive success. Well done.
