Today I celebrate for many things, The goodness of God, my health, and on top of that, my weight loss success. Today I am half way to my goal. I got very serious about it August 29th 2014. I weighed 246 then. In 8 months, I've lost 51 pounds. However from the beginning of 2014, I'm down 65 pounds.

So my stats are:

Age: 25
Height: 5'2
Start weight: 260
Current weight: 195
Goal weight: 130

My waist is down from 57 inches to 45 1/2
Right under my chest is down from 47 1/4 to 39 7/8
My thighs together are down from 49 1/4 to 43 5/8
and my Hips are down from 56 to 49 1/8

Honestly I have some troubles seeing/feeling it, but I'm expecting that it will just hit me one day :)

Onto the next 65 pounds!! I'll post again at the finish line of weight loss when I'm venturing onto the next journey of maintenance.

Anyways, here are my photo's and hopefully you can see a difference and perhaps gain some motivation and confidence to continue on your journey!

Blessings to all!!

    Thank you! I think I'm going to go all the way this time. I tried a few times, but had babies, so it kept screwing up my progress!!

    Amazing achievement. Well done you. Keep up the hard work. Babies they really do play with your weight, I've had four. They are an inspiration to lose weight also so we mums can chase after them. Congratulations on your loss so far. Enjoy the journey. You rock!!!
