    sometimes it is hard to see ourselves as different, because we already have an image of we want to be.... beleive me, anyone who looks at the pictures sees the difference! You have done great! I hope you feel the difference and realize what a good improvement you have done to your body - it will thank you for many years to come!

    YOU ARE A SUCCESS! BE PROUD!

    Wow, I can definitely see a difference!

    And for me, this is extra motivational! I am 5'10" and I started at 202 about 3 weeks ago. I would also like to get down to around 160. From your photos, it looks like I have about the same shape as you did when you started, so these photos are probably very similar to what mine will look like.

    Way to go! Keep up the good work!

    You guys are super supportive, thanks :) I still feel as fat as I was five months ago, so it's hard for me to see a difference in myself.

    Glad I could help motivate you :) Most people who share pictures don't have my body type, so I figured I'd represent the buddah belly and how stubborn it is to lose weight from.

    Every pound you lose is success! You look good! Just keep working at it! Maybe try toning workouts if you're concern is your stomach... Either way you're doing great!!!!!

    I'm hoping I can lose 40 pounds in 5 months!
