before and after FACE edition

2007 (201 lbs, down from 237)


Last month (159 lbs)

This is after 66 months. Now I want to maintain.

Sometimes I want to give up, because I keep falling off the wagon and I seem to gain and lost the same 10 pounds for months at a time before there is any progress... then an old picture like this comes up on my timeline, and I can compare it to where I am now... and it fills me with renewed purpose.

@AKTipsyCat , I am beginning to suspect that gaining and losing the same 10 lbs (or 5lbs, or whatever), for months at a time is actually maintenance. Take heart in that you will be very good at it by the time you get to where you want to be!
(And in your photo you look great, by the way!)

Down from 284 to 199! So glad to be back in the 100s again! About a week before my one-year anniversary! Still got more work to do!

46lbs down 30 to go - I want to rea ch my goal before my 47th birthday next year 😊

Sometimes the before and after pictures make me cringe on the inside....

-55 lbs (plus a trip to Arrakis)

Sorry about the "quality"- first image taken nearly 5 years ago-at the beginning of my journey.
Last one taken this month (after my haircut.)
Starting weight- 555 lbs
Today's weight- 295 lbs
Still another 100+ to go, but feeling much better.
