5 years ago a picture was taken of me at my children's baptism. I was disgusted with myself and ashamed of how much I let myself go. I found mfp shortly there after. The first year I lost 90 lbs then I got remarried and slowly starting gaining again. In March of this year I decided I need to get healthy. Not just for me but for my family. Since then I have lost 45 lbs. I've found this time has been easier and I follow strictly during the week and on the weekends I allow myself to relax a little. This gives me balance and I don't feel deprived. Just wanted to share my story because today I woke up so proud of myself. When you are in a battle for weight loss I find many times there is no pride only the urge to do more.

    Congratulations! You look amazing. Question: How are you doing as far as lose skin? Do you have any or none or some? Just curious. No need to answer if you don't want to. But still congratulations. :)

    On my phone when I update my weight I can include a picture. In that portion is where you can get the side by side.

    Well I had a surgery when I was pregnant with my second child which was like having a csection I guess. I still have loose skin problems. Arms, thighs, and stomach. I am working out and find that it helps but it will never be fully gone. I've somewhat accepted this. :smile:

    Ok, I see that now... but now I'm missing where it can list the weight lost... I'm so technically ungifted, lol.
