My first BIG milestone, with pictures

Goldenwoof

Hiya MFPers,

I haven't been under 200 pounds since 2004, and have spent most of my time since then in the 220-230 area. I started MFP-ing in September at 226 pounds, with a goal of getting under 190. I'm still a bit shy of that, but I cracked the 200-pound barrier today, so I thought I'd share some pictures, taken every four weeks. My apologies to the faint of heart (or weak of stomach) for the shirtless ones.




So no, I'm not quite yet where I wanna be (I eventually wanna be in the 185-190 area), but feel pretty good about getting back under 200. I'm posting these now because, truly...if I can do this, anyone can. It took a long time for me to get off my rump and make this happen, so if anyone out there is wondering if they can be successful, trust me...you can be.

Best of luck, everyone, and enjoy the ride!

Great Job!! Tell me it gets easier! I cannot wait to post my before and after photos! Congrats! All my life I heard people say "wait til your older slim it gets hard to lose weight" but I was always in great shape with little effort....and then I turned 30 and I suddenly understood what everyone had been telling me. Crap its true! LOL
