I'm feeling pretty proud today & a friend told me about this cool phone app to do before and after shots so I decided to share. No i'm not at my goal weight but i'm at my goal size & I couldn't be prouder! My goal now is to shape up for summer wear :-) people ask how I did it well... first off I used to have a sit down job never worked out and constantly was eating terrible foods and alot of it! So I quickly packed on the lbs yr after yr from about 2004 I gained about 100 lbs! Then in march 2011 I changed jobs this one is very physical. I lost 10 lbs in the first 2 months and then found mfp. Mfp taught me portion control and to stay under 1300 calories also that a quick 30 minute walk gave me extra calorie room. Week after week the weight was coming off so I kept going! Was eating right and working out more often and added other exercises. I'm 5'10" and currently@ 183 lbs & size 12 Jeans. I workout about 5 times per week for about an hr plus I work at a very physical job full time I control my eating most of the time and drink plenty of water...

    Wow! You look so great! Congrats. I'm 5'10" and just starting out on mfp at 250 lbs. I'm hoping to get down to that 180ish range, it would be amazing to be a size 12. I can barely even imagine what that might feel like.

    Thanks for sharing and for the inspiration to keep going!
  • You look great but better than that, I bet you feel great. I have 70lbs to lose. I have no clue how to use the meal planner and am not to good with this computer stuff. Can you tell me what and how you did it.. I cant think of things to eat or I under eat or over eat, no middle. Thank you and cant wait to see your summer pics!
