edited January 13 in Success Stories
I've been logging for a year!! In 2012 I learned that I'm capable of something I never thought I could do. What an awesome feeling to know that I'm not stuck being FAT and unhappy. I have a long way to go but I will NOT give up!! To those of you who think it's impossible... YOU CAN DO IT!!! :)))

I don't know how much of a difference you all will be able to see in these pics, but the difference I see is beyond anything I imagined I could do!!


SW: 347 lbs
CW: 297 lbs

I really wish I could've accomplished more this year, but I'm proud of what the work I've put in. Can't wait see what this year has in store for me!!

    That is a big difference and you should be so proud. A year, and look what you accomplished. Thank you for posting, and best of luck on your journey of a lifestyle change.

    I would guess that you are already finding it easier to move around! You have lost more than 10% of what you weighed, so you should be seeing other benefits too, like lower blood pressure and more stable blood sugars! Keep up the very hard work! Day by day. Add me if you would like!

    No apologies for losing about 50 pounds in the year. At about 1 pound per week, you are probably doing it right. More importantly, as you drop the pounds you have probably found and will find that you are able to do more which can lead to a period of faster weight loss.

    Keep it up.

    I must say that's a great accomplishment!

    Wow what a great result! And it's good you're not crash dieting, trying to drop weight faster than is natural is a dangerous game; I've done dangerously under-cal fad diets and yeah, super quick results, but as soon as you try eating normal food again your brain 'clicks' and you binge eat like crazy! (or at least I did lol.) it's not worth it; just think as you gradually lose each little bit you're learning more about what works for you and what foods/excersize are best for your lifestyle. :) you've made such amazing progress and hopefully 2013 will once again be 'your year!'

    In 10 days will be a year for me too, and my results are only 18 lbs as of today; however, I feel much better than a year ago. Congratulations!!

    Don't sell yourself short, 50lbs lost in a year and logging for an entire year is an incredible accomplishment! If you make this year's goal to lose more weight or to start lifting or walking or whatever you think would be a goal to go after, just think one year from today when you are posting to all of us and how awesome you will feel! Keep up the great work, I can definitely see a big improvement from your pics.:smile:
