unfortunately it WAS me....and that was me for about 6 years until I got fed up and did something about it!
That will NEVER be me again.
Thanks so much!0 -
Congrats!! Thanks so much for posting this!! You started at the exact same weight as I did.. so I might have to keep coming back and reading your story and looking at your pics to stay motivated0

you look amazing!0

Wow! Congrats on your weight loss! I hope in a year's time I'll be able to post my before and after pics (AND run a 5k again!)0

Thank you for the inspiration and the photo shots. It really puts into perspective what this is about and how it feels!
Congratulations!
(PS - I think I am going to find that Zumba class and get started - I have been holding off not wanting to be embarrassed - but I need to do it for me- I really think it would be fun)0 -
So exciting! Congrats on your your journey. I am planning on losing a second grader's worth of myself these next 12 months so it's lovely to see others that have done it.0

Today marks my one year anniversary of my weightloss journey. In the past year I have lost 67 lbs, going from 215 to 148. (from a size 18 pants to now a size 6) I have lost 11 inches from my hips, from 47 to 36. I have lost 11 inches from my waist, from 41 to 30. I can now run a 5k. A year ago I could barely run a block. A year ago I tried zumba and thought I was going to die. Now I am in the process of getting zumba instructor certified. I can now do kickboxing and I kick *kitten* at it. I am in the middle of doing a boot camp program and I am one of the most fit people there. I have never felt more strong or powerful in my life. But most of all I have never felt more confident in myself, emotionally and physically. I have literally saved my own life. I say all this to tell you guys if you are just starting out you CAN and WILL do this. I still have a little way to go but I will get there eventually. Thanks to all my friends who have been here for me the past year in some way. You all mean so much to me and I truly think I couldn't have done it without you.
I believe in you.
Wow...what a journey...truly an inspiration. Thanks for sharing, you look like a different person...congratulation!
