    The top right pic was taken to mimic the before pic in terms of posture and relaxation.

    The bottom right pic is shameless posing.

    Before: July 2008; 185lbs
    After : Jan 2015;, 163lbs

    Thank you very much!

    I'm 38, and sometimes wonder if I should go with something a bit more age appropriate... But then I think.. I worked hard for this! Lol

    I got it at Ardene's - which IS a store tailored for younger people.

    ALL of you guys are amazing! Your pics are just the motivation I needed to see...it would be nice to know in just a little bit of detail what you would contribute your success to...is it exercise? Food Tracking maybe? All of you have my highest respect!

    For me, it is counting calories. I initially lost weight with no exercise. It wasn't until I was a bit lighter that I started working out. I do credit exercise with my current body composition, but my weight loss is because of counting calories and eating in a deficit.

    Exactly the same for me.... .

    WAY TO GO!

    I love this thread....it helps me to stay strong. All of the transformations are AMAZING!!! My initial goal is to lose 41lbs (then maybe a few more if I feel I need to) and am already 9.5lbs down since New Years Day, which I'm really happy about. It seemed like such a huge amount of weight to lose and I kept putting it off....but with the New Year came a fresh start and fierce determination. I guess I can relate more to people who've lost approximately the same amount of weight that I'd like to lose but I am super impressed with everyone's hard work. Those who have lost 100lbs + are incredible and it makes me realise that 40lbs + off isn't an impossible goal.

    So, thank you everyone for your stories and pictures. I hope to one day soon share my story and pics too.

    I've seen these postings and have frequently come in here and got that little extra boost of motivation I needed when either wanting to splurge on something out of my range for the day or totally skipping a workout.
    This is my work in progress pic. I still have about 40-45 lbs to lose and then I plan on adding some more muscle. :)
