Christmas of 2010 I weighed 217 lbs at 5'6 and it did not look very good.
In January when I went through a break-up I decided I would make some big changes in time for my sister's wedding in September and I worked my butt off.
New Years Eve - Dec 31st, 2010.
I managed to get down to 185 in time for my sisters wedding on Sept 30, 2010 and felt gorgeous, but still big.
Shortly after the wedding I got completely off track with my eating/working out and gained back almost 15 lbs. I joined MPF on November 9th weighing 200 lbs, and since then I am back down to 186.
Here is what I look like now - my goal weight is around 155-160 and I am hoping to be there by August of next year!
this zip-up sweatshirt now SWIMS on me!

Just so you know, I don't think I look 'small' - in that picture I have on size 10 Lululemon yoga pants.
I wear size 12 jeans and I don't feel 'small' yet!0 -
