    I want to post this photo to show what one year can do! I still have a long way to go but I mainly wanted to share this photo because last year (photo on the left) was my breaking point. It was upon seeing that photo that I decided to make a change. The feeling of disappointment was overwhelming when I first saw that photo last year and it make me want to change my life. I wanted to look cute but I was so unhappy with myself! It's now one year later and I'm ready to start a new year. It's truly amazing what you can accomplish in 12 months if you make a commitment to yourself and your health. I am happy I have that old photo because it only acts at motivation. This time next year, the photo on the right will be my "before". Here's to 2016, a new year, a new body, a new mind and so much more life to live! Thank you so much MFP fam. You helped me reach this point and I am forever grateful.vk4iwdyf76rs.jpg

    Hiya, you look stunning, how much have you lost and how tall are you? (Please) I hope you don't mind me asking.

    Hi sorry! I should have posted that! I'm 5'7" and I've lost 49 lbs in the last year and nearly 100 lbs total :smile:

    I am in just "awe" ... I am new to the community part of my fittness pal... been using it for years to track food but never ventured out into the community. My heart melted seeing all the positive feedback on here. If this or any progress pic was posted on any other "social media" site it would be filled with hate but instead all you have is love and support. You look amazing and have come so far ! keep it up girl!
