    I am 5'7" and I started this journey about 7 months ago I started out at 210lbs and I now weigh 179.2 as of this morning! My original goal was 180, but I'm still not happy so I'm trying for my "healthy weight" now which is 160. I look in the mirror or pictures and I don't see a whole lot of change..Is this normal?? However when I do comparison pictures I do see change in some pictures. Let me see the difference in you! I need motivation!

    I am actually bout right where you are! I started in feb at 215, I am now 175 (10lbs away from what dr said was healthy weight for my height and build) I feel and see a huge difference. I am starting to feel the anxiety of just wanted to be to my goal already tho. But I will say I didn't see the difference either until I went to a family party and everyone was making a big deal bout my weight loss. I decided to go back and look at pics and I def see a difference now. Sometimes we need to get out of our own way and see what is actually right in front of us. Be confident in who u r and do it for u.

    Let me start out by saying everyone's before and afters are stunning! I wish I had taken true befores, but I had to search since I have been dodging the camera for quite some time! I started my weight loss in Jan. at a BMI of 35.4(weighing 226.2 at 5'7"). My goal was to be healthy by BMI standards by my 25th birthday(TODAY!!!) 215 days later I met my goal, I weigh 156 currently with a BMI of 24.4, translating from a size 18 pant to a size 12. 1kqx9m74onud.jpg

    The left is me at my heaviest..I'm 5'7 and was 203. The right was 165. And that's just the face! Unfortunately, I didn't take full body pics at my heaviest because I didn't even expect to begin this journey! But I'm down 16 more pounds..lingering at 149.

    Don't worry about how you look right now. Most of us suffer from an image dysphoria. How do you feel?


    So true!

    5'9 here, but always thought I was 5'8 up until a couple months ago (grew apparently).

    I am no where near done, but my highest weight was 174. Currently I am resting at 154 with a goal of 130-140, depending on how I feel at that point.
