So, I thought I'd get this in visual form. I'll be adding more pics as I find them.

This is me at my sister's graduation. At my heaviest of 320 pounds and smoking over a pack a day.

Me on my wedding day. A shot from behind. I wasn't even at my heaviest.

Me early 2011. I had lost about 30 pounds at that point.

Me right after my daughter was born in Jan. of 2012.

    Wow!!!!! What a difference. Any secrets you'd like to share? I also started at over 300lbs. I feel like I will never get under 200.

    I took it one chunk at a time. When I looked at the larger goal, I would get overwhelmed and depressed. Taking it 5-10 pounds at a time really helped me stay focused.

    This could be controversial to some, but when I started, I knew there was NO way I was going to be able to cut out certain "bad" foods. I told myself that those were "treat" foods to be eaten in moderation. I get into a very disordered mindset if I label foods "good" or "bad".
