Hi everyone!
So, I'm home for the holidays & figured it would be a good time to see how i've progressed in my weight loss journey! I've posted some pictures of me at 265 lbs on my profile. I'm still about 25 lbs off of my goal, but I think seeing these photos gave me a whole new motivation to just finish this off in 2009!

Good luck everyone! The holiday season is almost over!!!!

    Thanks everyone!! I really needed to re-visit my past to get back on track after the holidays! I have had lots of e-mails asking me how long it took me. Well, I started 4 years ago and I haven't always been good as far as staying on track, never gaining, just taking longer to take off the weight. I'm glad that i've taken my time to lose the weight & I think that it will help me keep it off in the long run. I started off by just dieting & that took off the first 100lbs, but now i'm working hard at the gym to take off that remaining fat. I hope one year from now I'm showing off my new body that I've always wanted!

    Thanks again!

    It also looks like you're younger... in fact, my first thought was it was mother and daughter in the pictures.
  • Wow! Congrats.

    I was always told that I look much older that I was haha. So, now it's weird that I'm finally starting to look my age!!
