I've posted these in some other topics, but here they are again since I'm 5'6.5".
SW: 225 (9/2015)
CW: 164 (today)
GW: 145
I do a lot of walking and try to keep my calories around 1200/day. I also drink a ton of water.
Congrats on your weight loss!! You look great! Did you lose 10 pounds a month? I'm just curious because I have been doing everything as you did drinking ton of water, walking for excercise, and watching portions.
Thanks so much, @sabkhan32!
The first few months I lost quite a bit. When you dramatically change your habits, the weight comes off easier. After the holidays I struggled a lot and thought I plateaued. Looking back, I'm still losing, just not as rapidly as before. I weight myself daily, so I have a record of every month and my progress. lol There was a LOT of fluctuation in Jan/Feb.

Changing how you look at food helps tremendously. My two-question approach has saved my butt a lot during some difficult times:
Before you indulge in something that's not the healthiest ask yourself these two things:
1. Have I had it before? (If yes, I don't need it right now. If no, go to question 2.)
2. Can I get it again? (If yes, I don't need it right now while I'm reaching my goal - I'll get it again another time. If no, have it in moderation. If it's super special like an Iron Chef prepared 10-course meal, eat it all! lol)22 -

Thank you for the kind compliment! I really have no "secret" - faithfully logg my food in MFP and work out 6 days a week. I do both cardio and strength training and since I'm naturally muscular, I try to get eat a lot of protein. I eat carbs, but avoid anything white - no white pasta, rice,etc. All whole wheat products. It's also been slow going, but slow and steady wins the race :-)
I'd be happy to friend you on MFP so you can see my food diary.1 -

Just started on Feb 24th, so I'm definitely not at the "after" spot yet. Here is my progress pic, I'm going mainly by inches lost due to health issues that make me retain water on the regular.5
