14 weeks 35lbs down...and more to go

kharmon2013 · November 2014

I'm in need of some motivation these days. I thought it would be good for me to post a picture, and let myself see how far I've come so far. These last 5lbs have been the toughest, and as the holidays are quickly approaching, I'm struggling.
So my progress so far is: SW 236lbs (August 5th) CW 201.4 (November 16th)so close to wonderland!
My next mini goal is 196lbs by the time thanksgiving weekend ends. Here are my progress pictures so far and I'm 5'5. I'm just excersising regularly, and counting calories. My biggest struggle is portion control, and especially with the carbs and chocolate. My picture is heaviest weight on top, and current on the bottom row. I love MFP!

Good work!!! Seriously that is an accomplishment. Two suggestions--take measurements of your waist, arms etc. it's very encouraging. Also with the holidays consider just maintaining if it will be a struggle. But in any case looking good!

hello from uk first of all well done for the weight loss so far you can really notice the difference. print the pictures so you have a constant reminder. you really must weight all the food you eat as that is the only way you to control the portions and read carefully the food labels.

I can see such a difference, nice job!

Thanks! Yep I weigh my foods, but can't always read the labels. I live in China and I speak the language, but can't read it. But I do my best to find things similar on MFP, and still manage to log. I'm still planning on losing during the holidays. I know it will be hard, but I need to prove to myself that I'm in control of what I put in my mouth.
