Nearly at the halfway point!

The day that I stepped on the scales and saw I weighed 277lb I didn't feel angry or upset I felt energised! I knew I had to do something about my weight and realised this was the kick up the bum I needed!
That was around 2 years ago and I dropped down to 234lb but then my and my fiancé bought a house together and life just got carried away! This January (2014) I weighed in at 265lb I had put on over 31lb in the space of a year! Then in the same month I booked our Wedding and with the date being March 2015 I knew I had to do something about my weight to ensure that I felt comfortable on the day.
My weight today is 219lb and I am nearly at the halfway point but I wasn't feeling motivated until my fiancé took a picture of my face for me to compare my other face pictures with.....the results are below. The first picture is when I was roughly 277lb the middle picture I believe I was around 254lb and these were in 2012/13 and the last picture was yesterday morning (excuse the messy hair and no make up)
Feel free to add me, looking for a mentor as well someone to keep my on track and make sure I am eating the right macros etc
