I was looking through my pictures from last Memorial day at a family reunion. I found the picture below and thought "OMG, look how large." I figured I'd take a picture today to see them side by side. :) I'm now down about 54.4 lbs and hope to lose another 8-10lbs and tone everything up to look good in a bathing suit!!

Me exactly a year ago...weighing approximately 200 lbs.

This is me today...weighing (on Friday) 136.6 lbs.

    When I started MFP I weighed 191 (last year August). It took me 9 months to lose this so far....slow and steady!!! :) You can do it!!

    You look SO good! Your arms, your tiny waist, and your toned legs. :flowerforyou: Great job! I know how hard you work every single day. It's amazing to have such an inspiring friend. I hope I look as good as you when I lose all my extra weight.
