Starting to feel like I look like a " normal" human yet...
Somehow, I hoped it would look better... LOL

It's hard to find before pix...for good reason. LOL14 -
Wow, I am amazed, just amazed. I'm currently about where you were when you started, and can't help but think, if I'd just started then... or years ago... you know? To know that there is a possibility of achieving dramatic results like that in just 5-6 months is such a boost to me, helps me feel hopeful. If you don't mind me asking, what's your average calorie intake, and do you eat whatever you want, or...?
Edited to add: Take an after picture with a smile! You have good reason to smile.10 -
Sweetie - you look fantastic.... You aren't quite a supermodel, yet - but who is?
It's just that your brain gets all weird on you. Mine used to tell me I didn't have a fat face... ROTFL. But, oh my... I surely did. Tomorrow - you might look in the mirror and your brain will tell you you are hot stuff... just try to roll with the crazy.
You have done great work - and you will see more and more results. I do hope you took measurements - and if you didn't - do it now. About half of the joy will come from watching the numbers get smaller on the tape measure - even if your brain refuses to acknowledge that you are smaller.
Hugs!

I eat whatever fits in the calorie total, but I do keep my sugar to 50g or less a day.
I keep my calories around 1500-1700.
When I started I could only walk 5-10 minutes at a time. It was PAINFUL and HUMILIATING. I spent the first day at the gym crying in the parking lot, but didn't go in. Day 2, I went in but cried while there..., but I kept moving.
I aim to exercise 5 days a week now, but have figured out that 30 minutes a day of SOME KIND Of activity really helps more than killing myself on the treadmill. I do some lifting with machines, but am planning on going to a personal trainer (as soon as the kiddos are back in school) to learn the best way to exercise smart.
I've also come to accept that I will spend the rest of my life just a little bit hungry, and just a little bit sore...11 -

Thanks for the info. I'm even more hopeful knowing that you lost that quickly without having to go down even further on calories. 1500-1700 feels do-able. I was also encouraged about you having been able to get more active. I currently get out of breath just taking the trash out.
