250 lbs to 118 lbs. I'm 5'1.5.

Wow amazing. Look at your stance even-you exude confidence! How did you do it...how long was the process?
Im in awe!

Amazing job!

My story is a bit different then a lot. I didn't realize how big I was till I got pregnant with my daughter and my first doctor appt. I was at my heaviest of 250. When I was told I had Diabetes I had no choice but either fight it or let it win, so I fought it. I lost 70 lbs in my pregnancy, gained 25 lbs back after she was born. So since 2010 I have been losing weight, September of 2011 I started changing my life style. So between 2 and 3 year's. I was pregnant when I joined here under another name. Lost that access, so basically I eat my calorie limit and workout. I've logged in nearly 700 day's non stop.

It's a daily focus, motivation isn't always there, I have to rely on habit. I reached my goal weigh a few months ago, my original goal weight, my current goal weight has changed to 115 - 110 but do not wanna be smaller than 110. I'm more focused on my core and tightening my body. I don't have a lot of loose skin because I've worked out for 2 years. I went from working out 3 days a week to working out 6 day's a week.

Girl u look amazing! Great job on staying focused

May 2013 - Sept 2013, so approximately 4-5 months. Shirt was form fitting in May - now it's too big! (I was actually a little disappointed yesterday when I put it on because I like it! But I suppose the weight loss makes it worthwhile

)

OMG!! in looking at your after pic's I would never have guessed your before pic's. If I would have seen you on the streets, I would have guessed you were one of the 'naturally skinny' ones (and instantly hated you

) ). What kind of exercising did you do? Did you actually do the T25? I was thinking about checking it out but not sure yet. Thanks!

Makoce · September 2013

You guys look awesome!

Thanks everyone for the sweet comments, all the photo's on here are amazing!

As for this, I'm doing T25 right now, I have 4 weeks left after tomorrow. I've done Jillian Michael's 30 day shred, insanity (up till 6 weeks of it.) and slim and 6 and power 90 (part of it.)
