Before & After Pics My Weight Loss Journey so far. . .

realm69 · June 2011

I was diagnosed a Type 2 Diabetic in April 2010 and the Doctor said, " Diet & Exercise" all I heard was YOU ARE SICK! Needless to say for someone who went there for a Physical and was used to being healthy her entire life it was a HUGE wake-up call. I took the Doc at his word and started to make some major lifestyle changes. 6 months later I had lost over 50 lbs and was taken off of the Diabetic medication and my Blood Sugar was stable. Around the same time the holidays came rearing their ugly heads and I decided to take a break until after the holidays were over. . . . Fast forward to March 2011 and I decided to kick myself in the butt and get the rest of this weight off once and for all. I joined Weight Watchers along with my mom and I have 24 lbs to go to hit my goal weight of 145. I want to hit my goal weight before my birthday, in 36 days but honestly I would just settle for before the next round of holidays. Hopefully this will inspire someone else to keep going just like so many of you have inspired me. Good Luck to Everyone out there!

Around 234 lbs

Around 180 lbs mark (September 2010)

168 lbs (June 2011, 24 lbs to go!)
