in Success Stories
While I still have a VERY long way to go (60lbs or more if i'm not satisfied) I am very THRILLED with how far i've come. I haven't posted one of these in a while, so wanted to share.

First one is me last year at 287 lbs (the highest that I know of b/c at some point I stopped stepping on the scale) and me today at 227 !


I'm also 5'9 for reference. :wink:

Never give up, hard work DOES pay off!!

    Thank you everyone! =] I've actually heard that all my life- it's the height, and I suppose I carry it well. Most is in my butt and legs....quite a bit in my gut.

    227? Really? You must be really tall. You look fabulous. I would've guessed you were well under 200.

    I was going to post a thread with my profile pic but I don't wanna steal your shine. :tongue:

    But seriously, I am so proud of you and all you have accomplished with this weight loss journey. I have seen you try and try and try and give up numerous times. That fact that you have stuck with this and excelled so well, I am so proud of you. You look great and help keep me going. I love my Bryn boo!!! Keep it up mama. You got this!!!!!:bigsmile: :flowerforyou: :drinker:
