Damn near 50 pounds: A picture book :P

Options
Nah it's only 3 pictures. A before, a during, and a present (because I'm not done yet). This has NOT been easy, but to see where I've come from, I'm proud. Damn proud. I'm not where I want to be, but I'm no where CLOSE to where I started. I still have back fat (but I've almost gone down a band size). I still have a dunlap/"spare tire"/or well, stomach fat (but I'm now wearing a L in underwear, which is a size 7 versus a XL or 1X). I still have a bit of a "double chin," especially when I slouch and turn to the side (but underneath that chin I have VERY prominent collar bones which I can rub now when I'm worried or stressed). See, you constantly have things you want to improve, whether it's inside or outside, but you need to acknowledge where you've come from if you truly do want to move ahead. I hope I can inspire someone. Here are the pictures:

Before my journey: 250

During(s):
Around 215/210 (Honestly, I don't know what this is, because I was wearing a rather tight BUT WEARABLE size 14 so I'm gonna guess like, 210, instead):

Current: 204ish? I'm gonna start lifting/swimming again soon
