36lbs down!! Pictures

i just wanted to post a few pictures here to keep people motivated and tell them that they can do it

this is a picture of me, at my heaviest, 245lbs, waiting to get my first tattoo done.this was the picture that first made me really insecure about how i looked, like “does my body actually look like that from the side?!” it didnt make me want to lose weight straight away but it stuck in my head and ive always thought about this picture and i think of how gross i look/feel.



this is another picture of me i hated and thought was gross and hated the way i looked in it.



i just hated the way my top clung to my body and how huge i looked ugh.

i’d always tried to diet but always failed, i never really knew what to do.

a few months ago i started a ‘new me’ cliche i know, but whatever. 2 months on and i’ve lost 36lbs. i’ve started to dress to actually fit my size, and wear clothes that fit me properly.

this was taken today at a friends BBQ, this is me 36lbs lighter


i love this picture so much, although im over a BBQ cooking burgers, i’m smiling and i can see how happy i am. i’ve learnt about food and whats good and whats bad and how much food to have etc. and i’m so happy with how far ive come! i never thought id be the person sharing a ‘weight loss’ story, let alone a successful one haha.

but im posing this to all the people who are starting the new you and telling you that you can do it, keep going!!

ps. ignore the crappy spelling because im tired!
