Today marks 180 days since I decided to change my life! I have went from a 51 inch waist to a 39. From a size 26 pants to an 18 sometimes 16, from a 3x shirt to Xl/sometimes L. From a 42 bra to a 36. Thought I'd share some progress pictures....

Me with my adorable hubby :) I was so embarrassed when I saw these pictures, I finally decided it was time to make a change...
292 pounds.

I've completely re-evaluated my eating habits. I try to walk every day, and I did have a gym membership til I lost my job unexpectedly(The post office did away with my job). I still have a long journey ahead of me, but I'm determined to lose another 50 lbs by Christmas!

Edited to fix pictures...

    That is awesome! Great job!

    I started out 16 pounds heavier than you did, and I'm just about to 50 pounds down. My sizes are dropping as quickly though :(. I'm still in a 24.
