amazing, what plan did you follow ?

Thank you! Before joining MFP I tried most of them (Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, South Beach, yada yada yada) but never felt they worked that well for my lifestyle, or would continue to work once I stopped them. Since starting here late last year, I track my calories closely, eat back my exercise calories, and workout at least 6 days a week doing cardio, weights and yoga. No magical pill or plan, just hard work and good eating! :happy:

Hard work, good eating, and support. not found in pill form but guaranteed to work. Great job T

hi. i'd like to ask if the skin sags after into so much weight loss?

There are a number of factors to how your skin will look after weight loss: age, genetics, how fast you lose, muscle beneath the skin, etc. etc. etc. I actually got lucky and don't have much, and what I do is going down as time goes on and I change my workouts. Some people are left with lots of extra skin, some have almost no sign of their weight loss - there's no formula or cream that can take it all away.

The way I console myself is knowing I'd rather carry around some extra skin rather than all that weight. :happy:

I wasn't going to post before and after pics, partially because I'm not at after yet (still in the during phase) but also because I didn't think I had any pictures of before. I purposely, like many of you, avoided cameras like the plague. But after going through some old things I found some pics I had forgotten about and decided to share them.

This is not easy for me because I never saw myself as the before person. I mean really, who is THAT person in those pictures? I absolutely see myself in the after/during pics and I'm proud of what I've accomplished, though I have some more to lose. Okay, enough jabber, here's what you voyeurs clicked on this topic for:

July 2006 - about 280


September 2008 - about 280 - Didn't know this was being taken, but of course I'm eating...


July 2011 - about 220, shortly before I joined MFP


May 2012 - my current profile pic, but it shows my face change from July 2006


Today! Shows not only the change from before, but really, how doesn't love a goofy pic of themselves?!


Thanks to my MFPals - some of you have kept me motivated when I wanted to quit and many of you have provided untold amounts of support.

Very inspiring!!

Look at you, you sassy thing. I love the after pictures, a smile really does drop 10lbs and is so much more comfortable than a shaper. haha
