Hello, I am Alex, I started this Journey in January 26 of 2011. First I am 5'5. I started at a Size (super tight) 16 Jean, x-large shirt, and x-large underwear, 38 DD, and dress size 16.

I had my daughter in Dec of 2009, and gained 60lbs in the pregnancy. I was 182 when I actually got pregnant I also had a c-section. I decided that it was time for a change after her first birthday, and have never looked back.

I stayed at 1200 calories everyday and worked out from 30-60 min on the elliptical 3-5 times a week. With some weight machines.

By the Summer of 2011 I had lost my initial 50lbs then I fell off the wagon after a divorce, a death, and a new boyfriend came into the equation. I made excuses and got lazy. This past year has been a little up and down with staying on board with the 1200 calories and working out. Bu I got my motivation back, I am now down to 148.8 and passed my goal of 160 then passed my goal of 150. I now I am so confident and finally happy with my body. I just this past month started running 5k on the treadmill and can't believe i do it without stopping lol

I am now a 34c, size 9 jeans, size 6 dress, medium underwear, medium shirt.

I took measurements when I first started.

Waist 38 to a 30
Hips 49 to a 39

Here are my pictures

    HI, thats fantastic. I'm 49, 195lbs, size 18, I want to lose 56lbs by Jan 2012. You're my inspiration after seeing your photos. Knowing the difference that losing weight has made you look younger, fitter and more attractive - 3 of my goals. When I see others do it, it gives me the confidence to believe in myself.

    Well done, you should be proud of yourself!

    You're lucky you look so toned! I'm still working on toning! Also You have an awesome tan! How do you get so dark? Great job!
    I gained 60lbs with both of my kids too and both were c-sections and I'm 5'5 also. I'm 148 lbs right now also! The lowest I was at was 141 lbs but I fell off the wagon a little food wise and am working back at it. What is you goal? You already look great how you are. Mine is 135! Having a hard time with these last pounds! sigh*
