in Success Stories
Hi Everyone, I really wasn't sure about posting a topic like this one, I love looking at other success stories on here and they have really motivated me to lose weight and keep losing. I have been a terrible yo-yo dieter over the past few years, and have lost weight and gained it all in a matter of months. However, since January this year, I decided enough was seriously enough and really stuck at it. I have almost reached my goal and am now working on toning myself. I am 5 foot 8, and started out at my heaviest of 212lbs. I am now 166lbs and looking to get to around 150 but build quite a bit more muscle. I only decided to do this post as I saw some old pictures of myself and realised how much I have changed. :o)

So here is me at 212.

Then here is me at 202lbs

Next one I was about 195

Then here I am at about 178

And finally now at 166, with about 15lbs left to lose to make me where I want to be:

Sorry for the huge photos wasn't sure how to change them!

Thanks for reading :o)

    You are very cute! (Sorry if you don't like being called cute, I mean it as a compliment.) You have done very well and look great. Good luck on losing the rest. I can not decide if I want to work my way to 145 or 150. Thanks for the inspiration, I need to get back on track! :-)

    Hi sweetie,

    I know what a superstar you are but been lovely to see exactly where you have come from! You look like a completely different person! I have just been given what I'm sure is te same top as you have on with ruffle sleeves. is it a villa one? never thought of wearing it as a dress. great idea! I feel nice in that it's lovely! very proud of you and you will get to where you want to be! here comes the muscle... whoop whoop.

    oh and you are super cute!

    you keep me going coz you keep going through everything too.
