First 50 lbs Gone!!

Hello all!
I'll try to keep this short and sweet. I started here at MFP at 265lbs and 5'5, depressed and with the worst self view of myself ever. My husband finally pushed me a year ago to get moving. However with our jobs of being truck drivers I found it extremely difficult to work out. Now this month we have both come off the road in order to better our lives physically and mentally. Thus today i was finally able to join a gym (I'm from FL outside activities are next to impossible with the heat) and I'm on to phase 2 getting off those last 64 lbs and to tone up. I'm excited and I hope maybe to have some new friends along the way! Feel free to add me and we can push through this together!!
Starting at 265 lbs

I even wore a swim suit this summer that I actually liked...

    I am so proud of you! It takes so much work and dedication to do what you have accomplished so far! I live in Florida too - believe me I am not a morning person and the afternoon is brutal.

    You have done amazingly! Well done!

    I really really love your tops! The lacey ones, they're so pretty! Where did you get them from? (I'm assuming you're American as most people on here are so I won't be able to go out and buy them, but thought I'd ask just in case!)
