When I looked at your pics I thought, she looks so thin for 220 lbs, but lucky you you have the height in your favour. Your look pretty awesome at 170, but you will know where your best weight is.0

Thanks so much everyone!! I appreciate all your lovely comments & I'm so glad I can inspire others!I am so proud of you. 50 lbs. Wow .. way to go.. Okay I too,.. and a little wondering how your tats moved. Yes, i see one is done in the mirror but that doesnt change the fact that one is on your right side and the other on your left. The tat on arm or neck hasnt changed. It doesnt matter. Even if it was self drawn for the day. I just wondering. It has NOTHING to do with anything. I am so so proud of you. I want to be there in a few months ... with the loss of weight. You go girl. add me ..
Thanks, but I can assure you I didn't draw any tattoos on.. lol. My shoulder and arm ones aren't there in the first pic, it was taken before I got them done. My stomach one has "switched sides" because one's a mirror pic & the other is a self timer!0 -

I made the decision to change my life for the better on 26th May, & since then I haven't looked back! I've always been on the bigger side, even as a teenager. And having kids has meant my weight has fluctuated a lot in the past few years, but I always seemed to stick around 210lbs. In May I got up to my heaviest non-pregnant weight: 220lbs. I was pretty disgusted with myself and I knew I had to do something about it.
People ask me how I've lost the weight & ask me for my "secret", but as many of us have found on here there isn't a secret to it at all. I don't starve myself.. far from it! I rarely feel hungry & I still have days when I go over my calories, I still eat junk occasionally & I still enjoy a drink or 3. It's all about finding a balance. In general, I average about 1400-1500 cals a day. I try and run 3 times a week & the rest of the time I do a lot of walking or step exercises.
I still want to lose another 20lbs but I'm a lot happier with myself for now. I'm in no rush to lose the rest!
Here are my stats:
6ft tall
SW: 220lbs - size 18
CW: 170lbs - size 12 in tops, 14 in jeans
GW: 150lbs
And now for some pictures!!
220lbs
200lbs
170lbs
And a comparison in the same grey pants.. They're a bit loose on me now! 215lbs on the left, 170 on the right.
Wow! you look awesome! Great results! WTG!0 -
