    Started my 8 week weight loss challenge around 220 and lost about 40 lbs:) I'm not sure why my photo didn't work right the first time.

    I started at 220 and am at 170 now. I would like to get to 145 when this is all said and done. I've got pictures in my profile, they are the last 3 in the list. Grey hoodie is 220, blue jacket is 210ish, black and white dress is 200ish. The rest are pretty recent. :smile:

    I'm 5'8" by the way.

    Officially started at on 1st April at 202 although I had been up over 210. I've just reached my 164 goal this week. I've been looking through my pictures but can not really find any that show where this has gone from. My wardrobe is a completely different matter, as I've had to replace everything from underwear up had dropped from XL to 8-10 (US).
    Stick with it and good luck.

    You are all so motivating it's awesome- and everyone with a similar goal as me!
    Starting out weight 226, currently 215.5. I want to get down to 150; and seeing you all makes me realize that it is totally possible and I can/will do it!
    Thank you!

    I have been up and down on my weight for my whole life. I have had a tummy tuck 6 years ago to only gain back my weight....and more. The skin really depends on your skin type and age. The younger you are the easier your body bounces back. I have always been prone to stretch marks.....My highest weight a year ago was 220...I was down to 184 this summer and now I've started out this time at 200. I have already noticed the skin issues but this time I don't see me having surgery. I had complications the last time that were life threatening. I think once I start working out I will add weight training to tone to see if it helps....I've never been a workout type person, but this time I would like to look healthy not thin. I hope this helps you, have a blessed day :)

    I actually started at 222 and got down at one point to 154 (that was a very brief moment.) At this point I am at 167. My body REALLY likes it there. I do have some pictures in my profile, I cannot do photobucket at work! Feel free to add me! Oh ya the skin....I did notice skin, but not like hanging or real noticeable. It took about a year but tightened up. Strength training!!! :flowerforyou:
