I was cleaning out my closet today and found a pumpkin shirt I remember wearing on 11/11/10 (late Halloween picture because my daughter had to go to the ICU when she was born.) I started dieting on 1/1/11 and thought I'd post what that shirt looks on me today 4 months and 40 lbs later :D

    Thank you all very much. I'm very happy to shrink that pumpkin shirt lol. It was mainly a result of me cutting back on the junk foods / soda and really just analyzing what I put into my body. My weight staggered from time to time and I just had to do things differently to change that. I'll be glad to help give any advice if anyone has any questions. Everyday I'm learning something new and I keep an open mind to all the many diets out there. Feel free to send me a msg or add me and ill help the best that I can. Thanks again! :D
