    I wanted to share my progress pics but wasn't sure what was "appropriate". I take all my photos naked but I put hearts over my girl parts :) Just wanted to check to make sure that was ok before I shared!

    Just photoshop something over your intimate parts. I've seen unclothed progress pics on threads before including on this thread. I don't see the big deal as long as it's not showing your unmentionables. Progress is progress :)

    pretty sure you need to be wearing clothes, or swim suit.

    Yes, I believe the rules are clothed or swimsuit, no underwear shots.

    This whole thread would be gone then. I think as long as the photos are tasteful

    I'm about 140kg in the first picture - my all time high photo taken in 2006, second picture was taken this year at Easter at about 75kg, have about 5kg to go.

    Awesome!

    I'm 5'6" and I've been logging for 57 days. I'm doing the Strong lifts 5x5 program (started about 3 weeks in). I have a long way to go, but I'm really happy with the progress so far. 24lbs difference.

    You look great.
    And this is gonna be wicked awkward sounding lol
    but I like your eyebrows
    and you're gorgeous at either weight (that's not the awkward one lol)

    I appreciate everyone's post! Your pictures and success are amazing and I am so proud of each and everyone of you. It is the motivation I need today. I have been on this site for a year and half and still do good one week, back to binge eating the next week. I can see through your results that if I had stuck with this, I could be at maintenance right now. There is nothing holding me back but "me". I too am 5'7". I was able to go from 175 lbs 5 years ago, and over 1-1/2 yrs got down to 125 at Christmas of 2011. Then by summer of 2012 crept back up to 135 and back to 150 by Christmas 2012. I have been struggling between 155-160 since then. I work out most everyday, have done boot camp for 2 months, walk to work, etc. My downfall is in the evenings, I EAT and do not stop. Make it all day eat healthy, but stress pushes me in the evenings. I make it a week or two & give in. I felt so much better when I was 135, that is my goal today, because it is reasonable. I am writing this post because I am making a commitment today to begin clean eating. I also have been toying with the idea of lifting & have read great things about the 5X5 heavy lifting and I am going to start this as well. I am 59 yrs old, but know that all is possible with determination. So here goes. Thank you for sharing your stories and giving me the motivation I needed. I love MFP

    I am 57 and started Strong Lifts 5x5 March 2 of this year, 3 months ago. I gained 4 pounds but lost 17.5 inches I also went from a size 10/11 down to a 5/6. I also went from 25 hours of cardio exercises down to 0 - 6 hours a week. I lift every other day. I have also had to increase my calories by 200 +.

    I only regret not lifting earlier in my journey!

    I had the same problem of binge eating all evening... but when I started having breakfast lunch and dinner everybday in a routine I was able to control my binge eating in the evening. I also love MFP.
