    Congrats to everyone :)

    I started at 249 last March, I'm coming up on my year mark next week! I've lost 65 lbs in that time, and around 35 inches all over.
    5'6, 26 yrs old. I've got 35 lbs to goal.

    Hi! I'm 5' 6" and I started my journey at 222lbs and I am now 192. You should definitely take pictures. Last month I only lost two pounds but my side rolls are smaller and I went down a size.

    I'm 42 yrs of age, a little over 5'6 my start weight was 171 and my goal weight is 150. I'm maintaining at this point of my lifestyle change. Do not know how to download pictures into the comments. My workout includes 1hr on the elliptical 6 days per week, 20-30 minutes of strength training 6 days per week (switching between core, lower body and upper body) using two 15 pound dumb bells (Started with 5 lb dumb bells). Eating the recommended amount of calories. I incorporated four servings of vegetables and fruit daily. Also, still allowing myself to eat some of my favorite things but within the calorie limit. And I lose the weight slow and steady within feeling deprived.

    You all have done (are doing) awesome! I wanted to comment on this thread because I need to look at it often for motivation. I am 5'6 as well and cannot wait to see these kind of results (I am really impatient :)). Keep up the great work!

    I started at 232 and got down to 127, but it was too hard to maintain. I had surgery last summer and lost a lot of my strength and fitness level. I'm currently at 148 and want to get down to 136-137. I added my starting picture to my profile pictures, but can't add them here since I am at work.

    Hi I'm 5'6" and my starting weight was 180lbs. I started this lifestyle change 4 months ago and have lost 33lbs. And still looking forward to lose 10-15 more lbs. My profile pic is my before and after shot taken when I hit my -30lbs mini goal last month. I just do food portion control and home exercises like zumba kinect, 30DS and Fitness blender at least 3-4x a week. I still eat whatever I want as long as I can fit it within my food calories for the day. My secret? Just drink lots and lots of water :)

    I'm just under 5'7" and my starting weight was 148 lbs. I ended up losing 11 lbs before my wedding (a little over a year ago). I slowly gained some of it back (my current weight fluxes between 142 and 143). I'd like to get down to 133 lbs or so.

    I pulled this image from a blog I keep, hence the weird formatting:
