A little about me: I'm 25 years old, 5' 7", with a medium-large frame. I started MFP June 1st of this year and have lost 40-ish pounds so far. Started at 257.4 and was at 216 this morning. I've gone from a size 22 to a 16-18. When I started MFP, my goal was to lose 60 lbs to achieve ONEderland! As I get closer to onederland, I'm starting to think about my ultimate goal. Ultimately, I'd like to be 140-150, so I still have quite a way to go, but thought I would share my progress so far.

"before" picture is about 3 months after I had my twins and "after" picture is from my first 5k last weekend!

Hope the difference is visible to someone other than just myself :)

    You look fantastic!! Super cute!

    We are VERY identical in size... I am currently 210 5'7" as well with a m/l frame.

    Before I had my baby I was around 145-150 and looked awesome at that size! I'm not sure I would have looked that great any less though...

    I can't wait to get back down to that weight, I think thats a good goal! Congrats!
