At 278 lbs I decided it was time to change my life. It's a long story but basically with just counting my calories daily (thanks to my love, Myfitnesspal) and with some exercise at the gym.... I have lost 41 lbs. My husband jumped on board and is also down 40 lbs.

Here are just a few before and after pics :) Needless to say I feel amazing. My goal is to lose at least 100 lbs. I lost 33 right before the new year, so my goal for this year is just to double that and lose 66 lbs - bringing it to 99. And I cant wait to see how I look and feel by 2014!

I can't explain what it's like to NOT be "the fat girl" of all your friends anymore (they always said I wasnt the fat girl, that I was the funny girl) but we all know the truth. Now I love to get all dolled up and go out. I have a new found confidence about me that I am absolutely in love with and feel unstoppable and we should all feel that proud. I recently just did an 8 week boot camp with very strict diet and exercise and next month I am doing my first 5k. Whatever you want, is yours... just go for it and dont be afraid <3
