30lbs down, progress pics

I've decided to share some progress pics since I love looking at them so much:) I started my weight loss journey January 1st of 2011. I was not happy with the pictures from my christmas party (below in pink dress). I think that put me over the edge to see how much I had gained. I was eating so much junk all the time. Chocolate everyday, in crazy amounts. My work decided to do a biggest loser challenge begining jan 1st. I jumped on board and that was the motivation I need. Luckily a few weeks later I found mfp. I don't think I would have stuck with it if it was for mfp. I've had lots of bad days and it's a struggle but I am on my way towards my goal. My goal is loosely 130-135's. I've noticed a big difference in my chest size and I hoping to reduce it even further! I love looking at pics of me now, whereas before I was always hiding parts of my body and working my angles. It was hard to find a full body pic to share! lol.

I never thought I could do this, but I am on my way! Thanks to mfp and all my mfp friends for keeping me motivated!
(I've never posted pics so I really hope this works (fingers crossed))

Here I am my heaviest at 180, Dec 6, 2010
