Sorry if you have already seen my before and afters. I'll make this quick. I started at 158 and have been maintaining 120 for the past several months. I love how I feel and I hope these pictures can be motivational to someone out there thats wanting to lose weight! It is so worth it! Feel free to ask me if you have any questions :) Hope you're all having a great day!

    For the life of me I can't get my pictures to be the same size. I am sorry that some are huge and some are small. Hopefully you can still see the results!

    Thanks for the nice comments!

    I did it by sticking to a 1200 calorie diet (most days...I definitely allowed myself several "cheat" days). I basically just make sure to burn more calories than I take in. I don't do much weight lifting. My exercise has been all cardio. I go for walks or jogs and love to take classes at the gym like zumba. I did get a body bugg which was nice in being able to track how many calories I was burning each day.

    For me it was simple. Eat less, exercise more! I forgot to mention that I am 5'8.

    Thanks again for the kind words :)

    Do you still eat at 1200 even with your bodybugg? Are you eating for maintenance or to lose more? You look fantastic!

    Thanks for the inspiration! I'm close to the starting weight that you were at, and have a similar goal weight, so this is very inspiring.

    Congrats on your weightloss. We all know what a challenge it can be and how it feels to be at the starting line.

    Thanks for sharing. You look fabulous!
