    My starting weight was 150 - with a very large fibroid tumor.
    I came here to shape up my gut post-surgery. (and shed a few vanity pounds)

    BEFORE.

    I'm not sure there is any difference in the last 2 pics (about 2 months apart I guess)- which kinda makes me sad, now that I tink about it...LOL
    Oh, well. Time to step it up a notch

    GREAT job ladies. I'm 5'6 and I have pics and I'll just have to figure out how to post them. I've lost nearly 60 and I am working the last 15-20 like a fiend. I want back to where I was ten years ago (looking great in a bikini) but mostly enjoying watching the transformation, love feeling my shoulder muscles and leg muscles..in fact I have more muscles than I did back then..I just have some excess bf to lose to reveal my masterpiece! I FEEL amazing. Oh and I'm 46!

    5'6" :) No formal before/after pics 'cause I only recently got serious about it. At 16-18, I weighed 130-140 and thought I was fat. Now, I have no idea how I thought that. At 19, I gained to 190, and with tiny informal efforts I slowly lost down to 170 at 21, and stayed there until 25 when I got pregnant.

    Teenage years, 136 (weighed myself while getting ready 'cause I wanted to look like this forever:

    21 or 22, 175, which I'm basically back to now/within the next month. (Not many full-body pics of me at the beginning of my relationship, so I had to go a couple years before baby, but body stayed basically the same in that time)

    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v494/tyedyegoddess/170.jpg


    6 weeks post baby, at 195. Sneak attack during a meet & greet the baby party at my husband's aunt's :)

    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v494/tyedyegoddess/195.jpg



    1 year post baby (1.5 yrs ago), 188. Was stuck within a few pounds +/- here until just the last couple months.

    Got serious in June. I am at 179 now, and my tummy size is mostly back to the before pic, plus a baby pouch. Hips are a bit wider than before pic still. I don't have a pic now, but I'll be doing formal before pics when I start 30DS for October. The dress in the last pic hangs on me now! I look ridiculous in it.

    Also, if you check out mybodygallery.com there are a lot there, and sometimes you can see the progress pictures that the same person will post across different weights. It's done wonders for my self-image, because I've felt the same 230 lbs all of my adult life, even though I never topped 205, and that was at the end of my pregnancy. Looking at people who weigh the same as me has helped me see what I actually look like. I don't mean to insult anyone who is or was 230, of course, I just thought that that's what 170 looks like. And 180, and 190, and even 130. They all looked the same as 230 to me. Not a healthy viewpoint!
