I still have a ways to go in gaining some muscle and toning everything up but I am still proud of what I have accomplished! I started my journey in November of 2012 and have since lost 47 pounds. I am 3 pounds away from my original weight goal of 135 but I plateaued for 3 months and decided to up my calories and start lifting weight. I also barely exercised for most of this and have began doing cardio as well. As a small side NSV--I shaved 3 minutes off of my mile last night and ran the entire thing at 5 miles an hour! Here is a picture of before and after! SW 185lbs ---> CW 138lbs Also, I am 5'3.

    Congrats! I'm 5'3" too. I'm 215 now and want to be back to 150. 150 is small for me because I carry a bondunkadonk no matter how small I get. Mind if I add you? I like to add people similar in height and goals.

    Yes, Feel free to add me :) I am always up for more motivational people!

    & he was all "you're fine how you are." before and after I lost the weight he sees that it was definitely necessary. He also jumped on board and has actually lost about 20 lbs and is going to the gym with me. He is very supportive and amazing. You can tell in his face from the pictures that he has lost weight too.

    Thanks everyone!
