These were taken almost exactly one year apart. The picture on the right was taken 3 months before I started MFP.

SW: 223
CW: 186
GW: Not sure :smile: I want to keep my curves but still be healthy

My husband took the picture on the right on Saturday. When I look at that picture... that's not what I see in the mirror. I still see the girl on the left, so my brain has some catching up to do. (sorry for the blurry pictures, there aren't many full body shots of me at any size)

I fall sometimes but get right back up.. that's the most important thing for me.
When I start to get discouraged I remind myself..this isn't a sprint, it's a marathon, slow and steady will win this race!
Good luck to everyone!!

    Someone told me that when I first started and it stuck with me and really helps on the frustrating days. :blush:

    You look so pretty ...keep it up.. you could stop here and still be amazing. It is nice to be at that point where you look pretty good and you just want to do more for yourself.
