I still have about 20 pounds to go. In the first picture im 222 pounds and in the last picture im 169 pounds. I have ran two 5ks and have dedicated 1 year to working out 5x a week and counting calories on MFP. My total weight loss has been 52 pounds. If I can do it so can you. I know it sounds cliche but Its true. Whats my secret? its CONSISTENCY!!! For the past 12 months I have only averaged about 4 pounds a month. Its a slow process but every pound adds up in time. I'll post one last time after I hit my goal!!!!

    I gained 80 pounds after my Dad died. I had some perscription drug problems too. I couldnt take the weight off until I got clean and sober.
