5' - 5'2" girls I want to hear your story and pics!

I'm 5'1'', 28 yo. I started at 198 lbs and I'm now at 148. It took me 18 months to lose 50 lbs. My goal weight is 135-138, so 10 more to go.
I went from pants size 18 to 12 (probably 10 once I'm done) and shirt XL to medium or small for certain brands.
I lost 3 cups size (thank God!), 17 cm at the waist, 23 cm at the hips and 13 cm at the thigh.








I started running in April 2014 but didn't eat right. So I kept gaining weight. In August 2014, I found a great support group. It really helped with emotional eating. I started looking more thoroughly at my nutrition and macros. By November I had lost 15 lbs. I was running 3 times a week and doing pilates and yoga 4-5 days a week. At the end of Februrary, I started resistance training and I reached 30 lbs lost by April. In July, I switched programs and upped the intensity. I reached 50 lbs lost last week.

Since January 2015, I have been doing meal prep every Sunday. All my meals and snacks are planned and prepared. My grocery shopping has gotten very effective. I still have triggers foodwise, so I indulge every weekend to prevent binges but the meaning of "indulging" is far from what it used to be. My portions are different, my relation with food is different.

My husband jumped in around March 2015. It made a huge difference! Things were easier from there for me. Doing it together is awesome. I'm so proud of us and of the example we're setting for our daughter.

Thank you everyone for the inspiration!!

I can't believe I'm going to post this for the world to see. I'm not nearly close to being thin, but I'm down 22lbs at 4'11. Wish I had a side pic of me to begin with... my stomach was HUGE.

190lbs: look at my double chin and scary looking legs!! I felt SO miserable. I felt like a walking water balloon. Tiiiight size 13.


168lbs: I don't have a full body shot, but my chin/neck/arms look so much better. Feel SO much better. Size 11.


But... I still have 50-60lbs to go!!
I can't wait to get there and post a skinny pic on here!

If anyone is curious, this is me at my goal weight. I WILL look like this once again!! This is after I lost 70lbs the first time around. Size 5.


Oh, and... this is me as a teenager, at a size 3. I would *love* to get down to a size 3 again, but I don't know if that's going to happen honestly.


Man have I gone downhill over the years.

I'm 5'1
Here are some pics. First is a combo of day 1 and halfway through and than 327 days, a loss of 49.5#. I can't believe the transformation and I'm pleased to say I'm not sucking in either!
