So, I've finally made it to onederland, which was my first weight loss goal! I have struggled with my weight my entire life! About five years ago, I had lost fifty pounds, but of course had gained it all back and probably a few more pounds. I have probably tried every single diet and weight loss "secret" or whatever you want to call it that is out there, but this time I did something different. What did I do? I got off my *kitten* and basically revamped my eating habits the healthy way! I'm no longer drinking 3 bottles of snapple a day, eating 2 bags of chips a day, skipping breakfast, and anything else that was bad for me. Also the gym has become my second home lol! It has become amazing to watch the things my body can do that I never thought possible! I can actually do a proper push up AND sit up! Everyday that I go to the gym, I can push my body further and further. I also do all these things with a knee injury/surgery that I had 10 years ago. Though, my knee won't ever be the same, I can still do all these things! I started my weight loss journey this time late December of 2012 and I will not be that person again. I refuse to!
I just wanted to share some pics also!
I have no idea what my heaviest weight was, it was probably about 240, or heavier. I really hated the scale, but when I really started going to the gym, I weighed in at 236.
Height: 5'1"

These pics are at my heaviest weight. I had a hard time finding pics, because I always hid from the camera, especially full body pictures.
These pics were around February 2013, give or take and when I lost about 20lbs. I could be wrong. I didn't really track that well lol.
This was mid march/late march and around 210, maybe a little lower. Once again I didn't track that well.
These were taken last weekend when I made my goal!! me at 198!!
I also have dropped 3 pants, I'm down to a size 14! I was a very tight 20.
