I was 208 pounds - Now 178 :love:

I could do major damage at a buffet and did not care - Now refuse to go to them:devil: .

I hated mirrors - Now I look for them:wink: .

I drank enough sweet TEA each day to fill a bathtub a claw foot - Now I am off the sauce/unsweet with Sweet & Low :drinker: .

I lacked confidence - NOW HUMMMMMMMMMMM :wink: :wink: :wink:

What about you? I love reading people's positive changes..... :heart:

    I was 152- now I am 131.

    I used to eat 2 huge bowls of cerea before bedtime- now I have tamarinds or blackberries.

    I stayed away from shorts- now I (almost) love wearing shorts!

    I never owned a bathing suit- now I have 2 or 3!

    I never liked any physical activity- now I love hiking, 30DS, walks....

    I used to make this face ( :ohwell: ) when looking at my rear end in the mirror- now I like what I see!:bigsmile:

    I can wear short shorts in the summer and not worry about my legs rubbing together.

    I am now almost able to fit back into my clothes from 4 years ago

    I was at 150 now I fluctuate between 121 and 125 comfortably.

    I was depressed due to an accident that changed my life forever and the weight gain hit me almost as hard as the physical pain. Now that I have gotten myself back, I feel like I have found a better and happier version of myself. :love:

    I hated to be in photos, now I am always ready to "vogue" :flowerforyou:

    I drank every day either beer or liquor, I have had 2-3 drinks in the past 6 months! !:happy:

    I was in an unhealthy relationship for almost 4 years because my self-esteem was horribly low, now I am happily single and I have self worth so I will be valued by some lucky person when the time comes! :heart:

    I am so thankful for this wonderful site and the wonderful friends I have and making new ones! Thank you for this opportunity! Blessings to you ALL!

    I was 160 pounds, or possibly more since it took a while to get on the scale. I'm now 138 and inching ever close to my goal weight.

    I wasn't able to run one lap around the park by my house, or about one third of a mile. I had to stop halfway to catch my breath. Today, I ran a five mile race in about 45 minutes.

    I was leaving the top button on my jeans undone, lying to myself that it was because of my new tattoo on my belly and then my belly ring. Nope. They were just TOO tight! Now, I can take off those same jeans without unbuttoning or unzipping them.

    I was self conscious about my back fat. It's still a little pudgier than I'd like, but almost under control.

    I wasn't happy with my belly, either. Now I love it.

    I was taking a xanax, a melatonin and two benadryls to sleep at night. Now I take one benadryl. And I might not need it, but it's not hurting anything.

    I was snoring. I've since stopped.

    I was a pimply mess. Now my skin is pretty darn clear.

    I was eating half a DiGiorno pizza for dinner at least once a week. Now... I still do! :happy:
