I got on the scale this morning and weighed in at 236. I haven't been at this weight since high school! (Which is still kind of depressing)
But I've been struggling these past couple weeks, so I thought I'd post this to remind myself of how far I've come in the past 4 years (though at least half that time I was not actively trying at all to lose weight), and how by just pushing myself a little, I have dropped 20 pounds and 3 clothing sizes since December of 2012.
It's amazing what you can accomplish when you FEEL like you can really accomplish it! Onderland is closer than ever, and 36 more pounds to lose doesn't seem like an impossible feat. It seems very reachable by the end of this year, if I don't slip up too bad.
Age: 25
Height: 5'9"
Highest weight (January 2009): 300, size 24


April 2013 - 236, size 18
