So I'm not quite there yet, but I've hit somewhat of a plateau the past few months, and I was starting to get discouraged. But I just recently hit the 60 pounds lost milestone, and I figured that it was time to do another before-and-after pic. Since most of my old clothes are long gone, it was hard to find a "before" pic that I could replicate! But I did find this one. It was from a while before I started trying to lose weight, but I am probably somewhere near my highest weight in the first pic.

If anyone is curious, I started MFP and losing weight in January of 2010. I'm 5'4. And the "after" picture was taken today. :smile:

It is weird to think that I have only 15 lbs. left to lose before I hit what was my initial goal weight (though that has changed since then, and I'm aiming lower). Either way, this is the home stretch. I hope that this gives some of you hope... it certainly does for me when I'm having a bad day!! :wink:

    Love having the same dress look so different! I gave away all my old 8-10 clothes a few months ago BEFORE I started MFP. Sort of regret it now but I had not been in them for 12 years and some were definitely no longer in style...... and I know shopping will be fun when I can shop in the "non-fat" section!
  • Wow! Another inspiring story! Thank you!
