Hello all!
I began my lifestyle change on July 21st of this year weighing in at a whopping 232 lbs on a 5'3 me. I was depressed, let down and sick and tired of feeling shlumpy at 23 years old.
Having already lost 12 lbs on my own, I discovered MFP in a woman's world magazine. Since joining MFP on August 8th, I've lost another 7 lbs...putting me at 19 lbs GONE and weighing 213 lbs!
I was scrolling through pictures on my cell phone today and found one of my face approx 2 months ago...I was shocked at how much my face has changed. So I took a new face shot today for comparison, and WOW. This is what keeps me going!
Photo on left - BEFORE - 232 Photo on right - AFTER- 213
Still have MUCH more to go, but you get the idea
Hope the pics are viewable.
