    So many amazing losses! I remember scrolling through this board (or similar ones) when I started for inspiration, so felt like maybe I should contribute towards it now I've lost some :)
    Still a work in progress, so not quite a 'before and after' just yet, more of a 'before and during' :)
    Started at 205lbs. CW 171. GW 160 (will reevaluate once I hit that and see how I feel, but will probably try and get down to 145 or something) Please excuse the messy bathroom in the background haha yiak6boco2te.jpg
    how did you accomplish this? I'm at your SW and looking to get to around your same GW

    I would like to know this too!
    My goal is very similar to your.

    Apparently I don't take enough pictures, I will have to do some digging. In 2012/2013 I went from 231 to 145. After illness, laziness and a baby, I am now at 185, down from 199 in December, making my way back to goal and staying there this time.

    I absolutely love this thread for plenty reasons ...but mainly for the top 2: Seeing the glow in everyone's eyes in the 'after' pictures ... The smiles speak a hundred words .
    Secondly ... Looking at how the same weight range sits different on everyone and their body types .All of you ladies are absolutely gorgeous and love everyone's dedication

    You all look great! It's so hard to envision what I look like (height 5'6", CW 149.2) as I always tend to see myself as the heavier me (highest weight 184). I've bounced around a bit for the last 4 years with a low of 131 lbs (which everyone told me made me look sick tho I loved the way I felt) to a high of 162 last fall. Have lost about 13 lbs in the last 5 mos and am aiming for another 7. What I'd really like tho is a realistic picture of my body. Y'all help with that so "thank you"!

    @lohlgren wow, you look fantastic! Way to go!

    I'm 5'6", currently 207 lbs (started at 215, although my highest was 235). My goal is to get down to 150; it will be my first time (since I can remember) with a healthy BMI! Thanks to everyone who posted their progress pics in this thread for giving me a little preview of what I can expect when I hit my goal. :)

    I've just gone through the whole thread, I'm loving seeing everyone succeed, bravo to all of you! I'm just starting using MFP, so far I'm loving it. I work in a foundry so I'm very active, but I have to watch the sweets at work. I've been gaining weight slowly the last few years, probably because my metabolism is slowing down, so I'm trying to get back down to 140-145 or so. You guys are inspiring me! Thank you!

    Bumpity bump bump! I actually started this thread almost a year ago and Ive been struggling lately and have not been caring about what I eat, and I haven't worked out in about 3 months. I hope to get out of this rut I'm in and pick myself up again. I was on the right track , working out 5 days a week and the results were awesome. Now its like I'm starting from square one again. Thanks to everyone for these wonderful motivation pictures!

    Thanks for starting this thread, fabulousmom!! I have it marked with a star so that I can check it easily. The photo success stories are soooo inspiring.

    Sorry to hear that you are struggling lately. I have restarted this journey so many times in my life. Sigh. Hope this is time it is a keeper :smile:

    I've lost the weight before and am back to lose what I've gained over the winter, so these pictures are a bit dated. Still, my height hasn't changed. :) I'm 5'6, in the first picture I was hovering around 180 (and that was before my two kids!). Second picture is after both of my kids, around 145 - I'm in the blue. Good luck to you!

    I agree! It's my favorite thread on MFP. I have it starred so I can get all the updates. So motivational.

    I'm 50 pounds down and hope to post a before and after when I reach my goal. I have 40 more to go. Thanks for all the inspiration everyone!
