GoodBye 35lbs - I won't miss you! *PICS* :)

**BELOW** These are before and after pics with 30lbs GONE. I have lost another 5 lbs and am soooo excited. I started out at 320.4 and am now down to 285!! I can't believe that I'm almost out of the 280's - it felt like I was just excited about getting out of the 290's. I started on April 30, 2012. My heaviest weight that I know of was 341 when I was put on highblood pressure pills. But after 30 days I was able to get off - that was in 2011. I had lost the 21 lbs off and on (not really trying too hard) and then when I started using MFP I was at the 320.4 - so if you add it all together - I have lost a total of 56lbs!!

I've been going to the gym everynight for at least an hour. I do a mixture of cardio and strength training. I used to ONLY do Zumba - but now I'm more focused on the gym and getting my strength training in - so I don't have too much loose skin. I'm also staying under 1400 calories. I started at 1950, then to 1700, then to 1500, and now to 1400. I can't believe how fast weight falls off of me. Busting my butt is really paying off!!

The full body picture consists of me wearing the exact same shirt (black & teal) except the teal is one size smaller.

My goal is to get to 250, and then continue after I reach that. I already feel so much healthier and am soo thankful for MFP!

Feel free to add me!! You can never have enough friends/supporters!

That's amazing! I just started, so seeing this makes me realize that it IS possible. I've done it before, but losing so much weight can seem daunting, so it's good to see results like yours!

Wow...you look great! I would not think you weight much more than 200 now....

kayla7jackson

Wow, girl! What a huge difference already. Keep looking toward your goal and do not get comfortable with yourself until you are there. I do not mean that in a bad way but my goal was to lose 100 lbs and I lost 10 and got so comfortable with that 10 lb weight lose that I let myself go all over again. Stay strong and keep up the very good work.
