    Ok pic overload time.

    I started out at 250 lbs, this picture is what changed it all for me. When I seen this late 2009, I freaked out, was in denial, refused to believe it was me, thought someone photo shopped me and just made me look horrible. I did not wish to believe it was me.

    I joined MFP early 2010 or late 2009 but lost my account and just signed up on another account. Been here since. Well in April of 2010 I found out I was pregnant with my little girl. I was happy but scared I was going to be over 300 lbs after I had her. Then a blessing in disguise, I found out in my first trimester I had Gestational diabetes. Most women are left with diabetes after they have Gestational Diabetes, I was lucky to find out so soon into my pregnancy. I lost 70 lbs in my pregnancy.

    After I had her I was 180 lbs.

    By September of 2011, I had put back on 25.5 lbs, I was back to hating myself. I actually stood in front of the mirror and screamed at myself. I was feeling sorry for myself, didn't know what to do. I remembered MFP, I came back and started logging. September 21, 2011 is when my life changed for the better.

    The summer of 2011 this is me.

    This is the start of that.

    My Journey went on and I lost and kept losing, and now I'm at my smallest, ever then before. 121 lbs. With 129 lbs lost. What really amazes me is that a 10 year different photo, I look younger now then I did 10 years ago.

    But this is me yesterday. Working out with my daughter.

    Not so dramatic as most of the amazing folks here, but here is my small success to this point.


    I wish I had pics from last year when I was upwards of 220, but here is when I started on MFP in February.

    This was just taken today, down about 10 pounds, give or take a few pounds from vacation this last week. Trimmed a bit, but still have the love handles. Bit more defined I think though.

    In the first photo shows my start weight which was 196 lb (14 stone) which was back in winter 2011. The photo next to it shows some progress when I lost a stone by the winter in 2012, I the weighed at 182 pounds (13 stone). I lost weight slowly so I could figure what suits me instead of my usual crash diets. I wanted to do it slowly so I was able to stick to it easier and not to feel pressurized.

    This photo was taken on the 1st May 2013, when out celebrating my 2 1/2 years anniversary with my boyfriend. Here I now weigh 168 pounds (12 stone 6). I almost got down to 12 stone but I had a wobbly! haha. Now I am working hard at this as at the start of the year I decided I want to get down to 12 stone by my birthday on 13th July!... After that I want to try to loose another stone before christmas. My goal is to weigh between 126 pounds (9 stone) - 140 pounds (10 stone). That would be my lightest ever!!

    Started my journey in August 2012 doing the atypical cardio gym regiment (treadmill, elliptical, bike) and lost about 25lbs. I went from 223lbs (bodyfat percentage unknown) to 197lbs (bodyfat 24.5%) but still looked and felt flabby. During this time I didn't have complete control over the nutrition aspect which definitely hurt.

    On Oct 1st, 2012 I started up my first round of P90X and locked down my nutrition and macros. I achieved very good results when I completed those 90 days so I continued and did a hybrid combo of P90X and Insanity for 90 more days and achieved even better results.

    The pic on the left is when I started P90X on Oct 1st at 195lbs, the three on the right are 6 months later at the completion of the 2nd 90 day hybrid round at 175lbs body fat % around 9%. Would like to get back up to 180-185 in lean mass gains.

    This whole journey over the past 10 months has definitely opened my eyes to a completely different lifestyle of being healthy and making better choices for me and my family.

    Agreed. I'm starting round two of P90X in two weeks. My before picture looks almost exactly like yours. I'm hoping for similar results. Thanks for posting!

    Sad... some of your "before" pictures are bodies I wouldn't mind having AFTER I am done!

    Very inspirational, keep rockin'!
