I started my weight loss changes 80 days ago and since then I've lost 16lbs and lots of inches (Unfortunately I have not been measuring. I probably should) according to my old size 18 pants. My starting weight 80 days ago was 241.8lbs. My weight in the first picture is probably more. I am a little uncomfortable to even show my first picture, but I think it's definitely a great motivator for myself to put it all out there. The pictures in the red shirt are most recent. I still have quite a ways to go, but it feels great that I am actually GOING!

Taken in October (before I started on MFP)

    i'm 5'5" it's crazy...i've never seen anybody built so much like me! I've lost 36 lbs total and I really really wish I would've done this, it would probably be very very encouraging at this stage in the game!

    Keep up the good work a little change is better than no change. Before you know it when you look back it will be a big change, if you continue doing what your doing.
