I like to take progress pictures every 10 or so pounds now that I am almost to goal.

Today, I reached the 40 pound milestone! So excited and only 14 to go!

This picture is my ultimate before. It's hideous and I hate it, but I am not that person. That was at my highest weight. Around 220 or so.

The before in this picture, on the left, was when I started MFP on March 25th of this year. The after, on the right, is from this morning. It's unreal to me.

I am so thankful for this website and the motivation it gives me to try harder and eat better. I am pleased to say that my eating habits have completely changed. My endurance levels have increased 10x.

    Keep it up, Girl! You look great. Sometimes it takes looking at someone your size, to realize it can be done. Thank you for reinvigorating my motivation.

    Thanks. I just eat right and exercise. I don't kill myself with exercise either. I only work out 3 times a week now. Cardio during the week and then I go to crossfit on Saturday's.

    I follow the paleo zone diet and it's really working for me. It's not even really a diet. It's a lifestyle change. I eat foods now that I never ate before and I don't really miss the foods that I used to eat. Occasionally, I will have some but I try to limit that as much as possible since most of what I used to eat does not agree with my body anymore.

    More diet then anything else. Moderate exercise. I try to go for low burns as well but on Saturday's when I do crossfit, it's usually 600+ calories burned.

    Progress IS progress! Every ounce, every inch, every half inch! It's all progress. Just keep with it!
