    I'm 5'5, just turned 40, and had lost about 35 pounds, but the scale has slid upwards a bit since going on maintenance, upping calories and adding strength training.

    I wish I had a picture of my backside before I lost weight. I was already down about 20 pounds when the first one was taken.

    And I can't really see the weight I gained since going on maintenance. :smile:

    I recognise you from the Weight Watcher forum boards a few years ago. You're the number one inspiration on there! x

    I am 5'6" and currently weigh 176lbs. I want to lose about 30lbs. I agree with you that seeing others' successes and also going through the struggles with others definitely helps.
    You are welcome to add me as a friend. I am great at giving reinforcement and could use some in return as well.
    Good luck with your journey!

    I'm 44 years old, 5'5" and have lost 66 lbs. Starting weight was 216 lbs. MFP starting weight was 194 lbs. in April of last year and my current weight is 150 lbs. I'm looking to lose 15 more and tone up a bit. This last 15 lbs. is proving to be hard to budge. Feel free to add me.

    Amazing job, you have very similar goals to myself so I hope I look that good when I'm done
    Hi! I lost 34 lbs on MFP getting ready for my wedding and I remember wishing I had seen more pics of people who were at the same starting weight and goal weight... Good luck on your journey and feel free to friend me although I'm pregnant now so my goal is actually to gain weight but I'll be full force into losing after October 3rd when my baby girl comes! :-) Here are some of my before/afters:

    This first one is actually more like 50 lbs down (I lost some weight before MFP):

    This one is a one year difference, July 2010 versus July 2011:

    And here are my MFP official before and afters. The before picture, I accidentally cut my head off and it took all of my will not to just delete it so taking another pic was out of the question :-)... And I actually lost a few more lbs after the after pic but never took another picture:

    I'm 5'5'', and I have lost 60 pounds from my heaviest point, but I have lost about 30 pounds since I rejoined MFP last year. It was more, but I am pregnant, so the baby weight is creeping back on.
