Not a huge change, but there are some. Will take another one in a month in the same shirt to see how its going! The before pic was taken July 5th, but I didn't start eating right and exercising until July 16th

    Great job! You can see the difference! What are you doing for calorie intake and excercise? Just curious due to the large amount lost in one month. :)
  • Great job! I started 2 days ago...I will be thrilled to reach the 20 pound mark! Then I will need to lose another 50! You can see the weight loss in your face! Keep up the good work!
  • Don't short change yourself. 20lbs is a huge success. Keep it rolling!

    I am keeping my calorie intake at 1500 or less, only eating things that are beneficial for my body (no filler junk), drinking nothing but water with the occasional unsweet tea or black coffee & am currently in the gym 30-45 a day 6 days a week. Work with a trainer 3 of those days & do the C25K the other 3. The MAIN thing I am doing is totally, fully & 100% depending on God to get me through this process! It is totally a spiritual journey with weight loss as the added bonus! Without Him, His strength & His prompting I would still be pushing the 300lb mark!
