Posting in this forum was one of my goals since first joining MFP in 2013. I weighed in at 236 (heaviest ever) July of '13. I came home from a family trip to Disney World and nearly died at the sight of myself! I was size 16 when I kicked off my fitness journey. Over 4 years I have been in the gym, not in the gym, home workouts, no workouts for months at a time, eating healthy, not eating at all.. You name the diet, I have done the diet! Nothing works unless you do. I now eat KETO (I know it isn't everyone's cup of tea but to me it isn't a diet) since May of 2016 and it has changed my life. I also do Kayla Itsines' Bikini Body Guide and make sure I'm active at least 5 days a week. The scale picture is after I lost 38 pounds and the beginning of a dietbet I played. The last scale picture is from 2 weeks ago and I have since lost another 2 pounds. Only 4 away from my current goal but honestly, being happy with myself is so much better than any number on the scale.

Congratulations!!! You look amazing. I am same height and have same weight goals as you. Finishing up a Whole30 now, and hope to stick with the paleoish template and started lifting weights. I am hitting a bit of a lull in terms of weight loss bc of the training, I think, but my body composition is changing. I hope to be able to post a story here too!!!1
