I started using MFP a little over 4 months ago and I've lost 35 lbs! I started at 190 and I currently weigh 155. I still have 25 lbs to go to reach my goal weight, but I already feel and look sooooooo much better! I love MFP and all of the awesome support I've received! I'm excited because I talked my mom into joining yesterday! =)

Here is the only picture I have of me at 190 lbs. It was at my family reunion at the end of July. This is the picture that made me realize just how much weight I had gained. I couldn't even believe that was me and I shed quite a few tears over this picture!

Here are a couple pictures from Thanksgiving yesterday. I received a lot of compliments on how great I look and everyone wanted to know how I lost so much weight in only 4 months!

    I have one of those pictures too. It was more about my unhappiness than my actual weight. Funny though, my brother lit up FB with the same shot with :heart: :heart: I love my sister:heart::heart: Suddenly, I realized no one that loved me looked at me the way I looked at myself.

    You are so beautiful! I am very proud of you taking control and you have come such a long way in a short amount of time!!

    WOOT WOOT!!!!:drinker:

    Thank you! I know what you mean about no one looking at you the way you look at yourself. My husband's response when I told him I was going to try really hard to lose the weight I gained was, "Why? You look good." lol.. He's been very supportive though.
