OK I started this journey 7 months today. I had got fed up with being a big girl. I was tired of everyone referring to me as "oh that big girl with the pretty face." So I decided to do something about it. And I have stuck with it for 7 months now and my progress is way more than I ever expected it to be. I am 5'8 and weighed 268lbs when I started MFP now I am 198lbs. I used to hate to shop for myself, and now I love to shop and buy way smaller clothes. This weight I was carrying around had been with me since I had my daughter 12 years ago. Just got comfortable in marriage, work, Life in general I guess and just let my weight take over. But not anymore I am taking my life back. Here's to the more thinner more energetic me. Good luck in all you do... Here are some before and after pics.
