Feeling Great & Down 67lbs! *PICS*

Hi Everyone! I actually started losing weight November 2011 (I had to open a new MFP due to technical issues). It is amazing to me how I didn't even realize how big I was until now when I look at pictures and am completely blown away! I am reaching my one year mark and feeling a lack of motivation so I thought I would post some pics to get myself back on track to reach my goal; I have about 35lb to go!!!

I haven't done anything more than anyone else on here, just plain ole diet and exercise. When I started this journey I was barely fitting in a 16 and still wearing my maternity pants (my 2nd son was born August 2011). My shirt size was def XL and sometimes XXL. I was feeling crappy and exhausted and I know I blamed this all on having kids. "It wasn't my fault I was overweight. I have had 2 kids." I have since taught myself that that is no excuse. The reason I weigh what I do is based solely on what I eat and how active, or not active, I am. I am doing this for me and for my family. I don't want to develop health issues and I want to look good standing next to my hubby LoL I am currently down to a size 8/10 and happily wearing a M shirt! Here are my before and after and please feel free to add me.

Sept. 2011 about 220lbs
