I have lost 20lbs. It doesnt seem like that much to me because I have been losing weight very slowly. I keep telling myself slow progress is better than no progress. Because of how slow I have been losing weight I havent noticed that I look that much different. I started this journey to lose weight for my wedding, since I know photos last a very long time. I ordered a size 8 wedding dress to help push myself. I have went from a size 16 to a size 10! One more size to go and I have plenty of time!
I'm so glad that I convinced myself to take a before photo of myself because if I didnt I would have nothing to compare it too. I'm also shocked at how big I let myself get.
Luckily that is in the past and now it's a new me. I only have 10 more pounds to go and I'm very excited!

    Nice work, you can really see the loss in how much looser your shirt fits. Congratulations on your wedding and sticking with your fitness plan.
