I'm 5'6", I was 215....that's when I decided I needed to lose weight. I lost 6 pounds on my own, then one day I found MFP. I joined Jan 18 2012. I've left a number of times and always come back.
My starting weight on here was 209. Today I'm 155....I've lost 60 pounds in total. My goal is 135, so 20 to go.
I was size 20, now I'm size 8.

At 215:

    Wow. If you didn't say photo one was the same person I would have thought I am looking at 2 different people. Great job.

    Thanks, I found that picture a few days ago, it felt like I was looking at a stranger.

    Thanks everyone! I was a total couch potato, I was miserable and depressed. My life has changed so much and the absolute best part is my children have noticed and are getting more exercise. My 14 year old son hugged me yesterday and said you look awesome Mom, it made me tear up! :smile:
