in Success Stories
Nervous posting this because it's my first post ever! I feel like I need to share though because I was surprised at the difference I could see after looking at pictures of myself from a wedding in August 2011 vs. a wedding just last weekend. Posts like this have helped keep me on track, or get me back on track when I needed it. Maybe this post will help someone else and if not, it is satisfying enough for me to feel accomplished both for changing my body and for posting a before/during in the success section!

Now for the good stuff...pics:

August 2011 - no idea what I weighed, but probably hovering right around 200 lbs, maybe more:

Aaaaand last weekend, May 2014 - weight 168

While I wouldn't consider myself a "success story" quite yet, I recognize the progress I've made and am much happier with the way I feel and the way I look. I still have a good bit to go, but wanted to share so far :smile:

Hopefully I did the picture thing correctly!

    Way to go! You might not want to call it 'success' because maybe you feel like you are only in the middle of your weight-loss. But it *is* success. You have clearly made changes to your body, and I'm assuming to your health as well. You are success story who is still writing new chapters.

    Also, you have lovely curls!
