The first picture is what I looked like before I started eating better and exercising and when I was at my heaviest weight last summer. The second is now, with the most recent picture of me from earlier this month. I haven't lost that much weight since I started but I can say that I am happy with the difference so far. I definitely feel better and a lot healthier. It's been hard and I almost wanted to quit a few times since but I'm glad that I've kept with it. I've motivated myself just by looking at these pictures. Hopefully I can motivate someone else too.

    Thank you! and yeah seriously only a 16 lb difference haha. I'm 5'6" I've lost a lot of inches so I think I've just been gaining muscle and thats why I'm not really losing a lot of weight.

    Losing weight is a journey.....not a race..... It is Uphill, downhill, sideways, backwards, frustrating, exciting, and it takes time and patience.....
    You are doing great ! Keep doing what you are doing because it shows in your body and in your smile !
