HI ladies, I'm looking for some visuals for my own goals...I started out around 221 and my ultimate goal is 140. I'd like to get fit, lean, and cut. Anyone out there with some great before and after pics that are similiar to what I could have?

    I started out at 228 on Jan 6/13, so am new. I would like to get down to 138lb, so want to lose 90 lbs. So far I have lost 10 lbs in 12 days. I am happy with tracking on MFP. I know pics will be amazing once I have lost 90lbs. I seen my sister do it and she has kept the weight off for over 2 years. Simply by doing portion control. It's amazing what we put in our mouths without thinking. now I am tracking everything and try to get in atleast one 20 minute walk a day.
    good luck on your weight loss and getting in shape.

    Not the best pictures to tell by but my profile pic kinda tells the story. Not sure exactly what I weighed in the pic on the left but I always seemed to go to the 200 range (I'm 5'6") - that pic was taken the first time I got obese (guessing I was almost 30 in that pic - approx 1994). Picture on right is from fall 2011 (I was 47 then -- I was approx 6 months into maintenance) and I weighed 140. The "girl" in the picture is my daughter.

    My goal is close to yours. I'm 5',6" and started at 217. My first goal is about 147 and see from there what else I need to do, if anything.

    I haven't arrived yet but am currently at 176. Here are some progress pics starting after I'd lost 5 pounds.

    If you are on photobucket, copy the "direct link" and paste it in the message. Then put [ img ] at the front and [ /img ] at the end (no spaces). img has to be lower case.

    You can try a practice pic by pasting that into a private message and sending it to yourself :flowerforyou:
