Progress pic :) 46lbs down

Decided to post a progress photo, as my motivation was starting to fade. I thought I was getting nowhere, but when I compared my most recent photo with one of me at (not quite) my heaviest, it showed me that, despite still having a long way to go, I've done alright so far :)

Started losing weight near the beginning of last year... it's been a bit of a rocky road (yum! :P ) along the way, some months I've sat and eaten chocolate to my heart's content, and some months I've practically set up camp in the gym! At the moment I'm stuck at my current weight, due to my own sheer lack of motivation, but tonight I appear to have re-found that drive that I had last year, and I feel ready to get my health back!

Lost 46lbs so far... still got another 80lbs to go...

SW - 268lbs
CW - 220lbs
GW - around 140 - 150lbs

(ok, my numbers don't quite add up... my maths is terrible! 48lbs down?... ticker says 49... ach, I dunno! :P )

ETA - I'm 5'6" if anyone's wondering! :)

    It doesn't matter how much you weigh. You're gorgeous! Not to say you shouldn't lose weight to be healthy, but you're absolutely stunning as is.

    You are beautiful! Thanks for sharing your progress pics. This is very encouraging. When you lose another 40 plus pounds, you should post more pics, and you should definitely post when you reach your goal weight. You're a hottie already, and you'll be a guaranteed show stopper when you reach your goal weight. You can do it!!!!!

    I use my old clothes I couldn't fit into as motivation. Yesterday I put on a size large adult shirt I used to wear in 6th grade. I could barely fit it on my chest months ago and now, even though it is quite snug, I can see how far I came for it to fit on my entire body. I am transitioning from 2xl shirts to xl shirts and it is very pleasing. The more photos you take to compare with old ones, the more motivation you will build. Trust me it works. I am here to help as well. :)
