Making Changes - 260 to 175 with pics (and still going!!)

Emancipated_Tai

When I started my MFP page on July 13, 2012 I was determined to make some lifelong changes! Copied directly from my profile:

Why I Want To Get In Shape
I've been heavy my whole life. This being the last year of my 20's, I do not want to enter into my next decade of existence unhappy with my weight and unhealthy eating habits. I'm looking to make a lifetime change!
My Inspirations
• To wear whatever I want for my 30th birthday and looking fab doing so!
• Being healthy and not just looking good
• Everyone that has been on this journey with me
I’m happy to announce that I celebrated my 30th birthday on Monday, and these goals have been met and I’m currently looking to exceed them! I want to give a special thanks to all my pals, because as I wrote on my profile, you guys are my inspiration!! Your support motivates me to keep going every day, even when I do not want to!
Believe in yourself, and your process. This journey isn’t always easy, but it is always worth it. My key to success was never taking no for an answer, eating clean and being accountable of my actions. You cannot expect changes to happen when you cheat yourself or are not fully committed to the process!

THE BEFORE ME - 260 POUNDS




225 POUNDS




THE 30 YEAR OLD ME - 175 POUNDS
