Although I haven't posted on MyFitnessPal for awhile now, I figured I would show my transformation in case it could encourage anyone else to stick with their weight-loss journeys.
The first picture is me three years ago and 50 pounds heavier. The second is me now.
Here is a face-by-face comparison from my heaviest weight to now.
It took awhile to get to this weight. I started walking more, eating more vegetables and cutting every meal from a restaurant in half. I have three cheat meals a week but eat relatively clean the rest of the time. I'm not much of a gym person, but I started running a few times a month.
Let me know if you have any questions about my journey!

Thank you! The first picture was at my highest three years ago. I lost about 10 pounds after college and recently took the rest off.
Hoping to lose 15 more by next year!

great job, thank you for sharing this. For some, 3 years to lose 50 lbs would seem way too long, and possibly not worth it, and your before and after pics show that it doesn't matter how long it takes, the results are just as sweet and it was TOTALLY worth doing! WTG!0
