147 days in, and 60 lbs gone!

I'm posting this in Motivation and Support because this isn't a success story... yet. I've been consistently on MFP and logging for 147 days. I've lost 60 lbs and wanted to post a pic for those of you beginning this process. When I started, I was overwhelmed. I didn't know what to eat, how many calories, etc. I listened to my body. While I appreciate all the support of my MFP family, I do what works for me, because in the end, that is how you will succeed. My face shot, after just 147 days should say it all. If I can do this, so can you!~

I'm hoping I can get this picture thing to work out :)

    How isn't that a success story? You may not be finished, but who ever is?
    Great job. Be proud.

    ditto that.........you may not be at your final goal weight but you have accomplished so much already and it shows! Don't forget to enjoy the journey, it is OK to stop and remind yourself that you are doing great and then keep moving on toward your next goal.
    Keep up the great work.

    I know what you mean with the success story part as you dont feel like you've reached your goal....but that is why we all setup mini-goals for ourselves. This is a success story! good job!

  • Way to go! Thanks for the hope, I just started this process, and i have to admit i forget to log daily.
  • You look absolutely stunning. If I look half as good as you when Ive lost my weight then I will be happy. You have changed almost beyond recognition. I just cant believe it. Very well done. I love the new hair style too.
  • WOW ... You look fantastic!! Can't wait until i can say 60 lbs lost ... Then i'll be posting photos all the time, LOL.
    Keep up the hard work :flowerforyou:
