My highest weight was 302 lbs and am currently 287. I would love to see some success story pics of people who were close to my starting weight (I'm also 5'8") and then pics of what you look like now. It's always motivational to me to see someone who was once where I am now and to see what they look like after they have lost the weight! Kinda gives me an idea of what I will look like when I lose and reach my goal!

    What an inspiring post! I'm just above 300 and have only lost about 10 pounds so far. I need to take some "before" pics.

    I’m 5’7”. Starting weight was 278. My current weight is 145. I’ve maintained for 2 years and counting! I got down to the 120’s (which felt too small) & hung around the 130’s for a while before building some muscle. I feel extremely comfortable at this weight, in the 140’s. Consistently is key. I learned to transition slowly. You can definitely do it!! You got this!! yrp36byaw61u.jpeg


    Girl seriously that’s amazing how did you do it? I keep waking up everyday to workout at the gym but I manage to mess up my diet somehow and eat bad food after a couple days

    Wow you look great! So inspiring!

    Ill toss in my weight difference. I went from like 453~ to 215 in a little over a year or so. 10-14-16 to 1-1-18.
    I did gain some back over the year due to my mental health issues though. God i miss my hair with the sweep..

    I'm 5' tall and started my journey at 266 lbs. It took me a year and a half to lose the first 100 lbs. Still trying to lose the last 20. I am currently at 164. It's not easy, but you can do it. You just have to stay committed and say no...alot. Lol!


    You look amazing in your pics! So Inspiring!!! Keep up the great work!
