This was my heaviest atleast 290. I started trying to loose weight the next day and did my official weigh in on 1/6/09 at 288.

These two pics were at about 265 in Nov/Dec 09 after having taken about 5 months break from "lifestyle change" due to changing a job and death of my grandfather. They are also what got me going again. Esp. since I knew how proud my grandpa was of me for loosing the weight intially.

And these two are at about 210. I finally feel good enough to post some pics. I still have about 60 pounds I want to loose. I don't know honestly if I can get that small but we'll see. I'm currently at 206.2 this am. I didn't start taking measurments until december but since december I've lost 3.5 inches from my bust (though I'm still a DDD, imagine that :(,
7.5 inches from my waist, and 5.5 inches from my hips. I'm measuring again next Wednesday and can't wait.

Anyway I needed a little self-motivation because it's been a rough month, I've still lost but not my goal. Thanks for letting me share with y'all.

    Yep he's my youngest. My oldest was cut out for some reason. He's making a face too. It's what happens when I tell them to smile and I can't see there faces.

    Thanks for support everyone!
