Just a little bit of history...I gained weight quickly after the birth of my 2 kids and yo-yo'd up and down for quite awhile. I lost almost 30 pounds on weight watchers in 2011 and gained a bunch back. I'm 5'11" tall and my highest weight was 214. I became motivated again this year when I hit 200. I started in September, and now, today, I'm at 178.4. Goal weight is 165, but I plan to reevaluate when I get there. I am cutting calories, trying to eat more fresh foods (although I have a serious junk food problem...working on it!) and working out about 6 times a week. Here are my pics :) Before is at my highest weight, current was taken last night :)

    Wow great progress. Have you tried weight training?

    I'm doing interval training, so some cardio and strength combined. I don't have access to a gym and only have small hand weights, so I'm mostly doing things that involve using my own body weight for resistance.

    Thanks for all the positive feedback!! :)

    Thanks! The brown was a short-lived box color mistake. Won't do that again! haha
