Hi guys! I thought I would post some progress pictures to celebrate reaching the 60lb mark. All done with calorie counting and exercise (mainly running and walking, although I've introduced weight training as well).

The first photo is over three years ago and I have lost and gained a lot (over half back!) over my journey but I think I'm starting to find some balance and I hope I can continue on relatively steadily now.

SW: 234
CW: 174
GW: 150

5'10

    You look amazing! Your stats are similar to mine except the CW one, LOL. I have 70 lbs to go. I'm also 5'.9 and 1/2. How long did it take you? I imagine your calorie intake was set at 1,400 as is mine. Would love to have you as a friend...o stay encouraged.

    Well done girl! I think the weight training is a good idea. Makes (even women) look even better and increases metabolism. Not a ton but even if you're just burning 100-200 extra calories a day at rest it helps a lot with maintenance.

    Keep it up, you're doing (have done) great!

    It took me three years but I was travelling for a year of that and gained about 35lb back so had to re - lose that! I ate around 1700 -1800 calories (minimum) per day :)
