Lost over 40lbs and still going

So, this was me the beginning of 2014. I was 195 lbs and miserable. I couldn't believe how much I had let myself go. I was 22,5'5 and over 50 lbs overweight. I started to notice I wasn't able to go to the bathroom anymore and eating bread and heavy foods were causing me to bloat and get sick. I slowly but surely began to cut all non complex carbs out of my diet. I replaced bread with lettuce or quinoa. I stopped drinking my calories and started eating fish, veggies and eggs. I began to run all the time and even roller blade.

Which would lead me to this. 175lbs. As I began to progress I wanted to work more. So I started p90x and come November I was much smaller.


That was only 2 weeks ago. I began to squat and weight train. 2 days on 1 day off. For the first time ever I squatted over 100 lbs. I'm super excited and this is the latest pic of my progress.

That is very encouraging. Thank you. I started at 238 and now down to 169. It's lovely to see the shape difference in your pics considering there is only 15lbs difference between your middle pictures. Gives me a bit of hope. X0
