Hey everyone, I put together new comparison pics last night & was so excited to see the changes in my body that I wanted to share, if nothing else to be an inspiration to anyone coming behind me. I won't post alot of details, saving that for when I hit my goal but here are the basics:

SW: 295.2lbs (Feb 11, 2013)
CW: 208.2lbs
GW: 150lbs
S-BMI: 50.6 (Cat II Obese)
C-BMI: 34.7 (Cat I Obese)
Clothing: T shirts were 2x-3x, now XL or X depending on store; jeans size 26, now size 20
Last mth when I did my measurements I was down 39.5" overall :-)

Here are the new comparisons:

    Awesome!! Thanks for posting!! I started out ~25# heavier than you & I'm losing a little more slowly, but I feel like I'm right behind you! Your pictures are very motivating to me!! I hope to be -75# by Christmas (8.5 months on MFP). Keep it up, you're doing great!
