    wow me and you have lost almost the same amount of weight I started at 230 and i'm at 185 now. In your after photo you look like I do which is much smaller than the scale says...do you notice that the scale says 170 but you feel lighter lol. How tall are you? I am 5'6. The reason I ask is because I see 170 on many other people and they look very overweight in comparison.

    I'm also 5'6". I don't feel smaller at all. I actually can't see it except for in pictures. My brain hasn't caught up to my weightloss yet.

    Great job! Keep up the good work. Inspiring me to keep at it! I'm the same way I can't really see it until I view photos and then I still see just how much more I have to go....slowly but surely!

    You look fabulous!!

    I'm also 5'6" and currently at 185lbs. I would like to lose at least another 20lbs. I have a medium to large frame so I don't expect to lose a ton more weight and be able to maintain it.

    I feel you there. I'm pretty sure I'm still the cute fat kid I see in the mirror. I have NO idea what I actually look like anymore.

    Wow, that is brilliant! What exercise do you do? How do you stay on track?

    I just keep going. No matter what happens one day, I pick myself up the next.

    The only exercises I'm doing are walking and pole dancing. (Though my weight set is on its way!)

    I checked out your profile and LOVE the mini goals you have set for yourself. I quickly figured out some for myself following your same system. We have a similar goal and had similar weight to lose.... although you are much farther along than I am. Congratulations you look fab!

    Thank you so much! I remember making those goals in May and thinking it was crazy. Now I'm shopping for my refrigerator! I love it, it's made hitting milestones really fun!

    Thats superb!!!!! How long did it take you....and how long do u walk for? I wanna go from a 180 to 150 to begin with!
