    You sound like me. You need to be more kind and gentler on yourself. You have come a very long way. And your hard work and dedication to yourself shows. I hope that you can relax and be ok with where you are!

    Keep loving yourself and keep going. Blessings and Peace!

    Ditto...well said! Thanks for this extra motivation you've given me. I was just sitting here at the computer like UGH I don't feel like working out...but I saw this post and now I'm going to put my best foot forward and move it!

    Your before pic looks like me today. Like you, I also go to the success stories of MFP to keep me motivated. I was having a crappy day and wanted to drown myself in McDonalds....but you snapped me out of it. THANKS!

    Holy crap. That is drastic. Also "holy crap" were my first thoughts... I'm usually a lot more vulgar. Great job!

    Wow. Just Wow. You made my day with your post...I am so glad I got this app, and am tracking everything I eat now. Knowing it may finally work is a huge motivator for me. Thanks for your post!

    You're so brave to post your b/4 and after photos. And look at your responses! See people are for the most part kind and inspirational. If anyone said anything bad I would have to come and kick some booty! You're da bomb woman! Great Job!

    I was scared, so glad I did it now! You have all been so wonderful, and yes, people ARE kind. Thank you

    Hi fellow MFP'ers

    I've not been doing so well lately keeping myself motivated to lose the next 7-14 lbs so I thought I would post the pic that started it all. Please be nice as I am pretty nervous about putting it out there. BUT, if I can motivate just one person to keep going, it will be worth it.

    For those that like the stats:

    5ft 4"
    SW: 218 Size 22 UK, 18 US?
    CW: 139 Size 12/14 UK, 8/10 US?

    1200 cal throughout the majority of the weight loss, only walking as exercise. Currently losing around 1 lb per month at 1650 cals. I've seriously lost my motivation at the moment. Looking to get down to either 133 or 126, My original goal was 150.

    Good luck everyone, now for the pics:

    You look awesome!

    Wow. Amazing transformation. You've inspired me to make that final push, as I am only 2 weeks away from 400 days. Congrats.

    I love the ticker announcing my log in streak, no one else comments as I only had 2 friends, my other half and my sister! Congrats on your nearly 400 days :smile:

    Wow!! Such an amazing transformation! I guess we are in a similar place now. I am 5'4 and weight about 146---trying to lose another 20 lbs (or at least swap out some of my fat for muscle!). These last lbs are the hardest!
