After a few months of doing things a little differently, I lost the weight. I have lost 35 pounds total and on my 5 foot frame, that was enough for me and I am finally happy! I feel more confident, guys notice me more, and I just feel really good.
Here is me at around my starting weight:

It's possible to lose weight, it's possible to be thinner again. All I did was change little things here and there, dieting wasn't working for me. I started smoking my cigarettes while standing, I started taking showers instead of baths, I started to play with my daughter more, I started to eat frequently even HIGH calorie foods. I stopped counting calories completely. AND NOT ONLY THAT, BUT IN THE MIDST OF THIS I STARTED ON CELEXA. SSRI's have a tendency to make you GAIN weight and I still kept it off! Now my bmi is 21-22. I have an interview tomorrow, I'm getting my life back on track.

Congratulations!! Can't see the pics but how did you do it? Any helpful tips that really made a difference for you?0

That's not the right url for picture linking (it needs to end in .jpg) but when you do get the right links just put except make the img lower case.
You look great!0 -
Try uploading these to an image hosting website like, imugr.com (that's what I use).
Set your uploads to automatically resize to message board size.
Then copy your links, and when you post them here add:
[ img ] your link here [ / img ]
Without the spaces in between the brackets and the links.
By the way, great job!!0 -

amazing transformation!0

i love your advice to make small changes-- like standing more and just being more active in general. I am logging at the end of the day to record my diet choices just to see the patterns and what works..:flowerforyou: ..but not so worried about counting calories any longer either. It really isn't working and it is making me to obsessed over food. I can tell a difference after a week of doing this..and your post comes at just the right time. I'd love to see your pictures.0
