I have just finished up a 6 week weight loss challenge with a group of friends that I live around. And after letting them post my before and after pictures to everyone that was in the competition I thought, why not share those with my MFP friends too! But for you guys I thought I would add my BEFORE picture too so you all can see how far I have come (I don't have a picture of me at my real starting weight of 272lbs, so my BEFORE is after I had lost my first 12lbs.)
In the Weight loss challenge, I came in 5th place by losing a percentage of 9.4% of my body weight (18lbs) in 6 weeks. When I hopped on the scale yesterday and did the math, what I had lost in the last week brought my overall total to 91lbs!!!! Even though I didn't win the competition, I was so proud of my self for what I have accomplished so far! I didn't want to post any before and afters until I reached my 100lbs goal, which is only 9lbs away!! But after seeing my pictures I just wanted to finally share with all of you! I am so close to my goal weight, I never thought i would be this close to reaching it. Thank you MFP for helping me along the way.

    Thank you! Staying on track is a really good question. What has helped me stay on track was just always tracking everything in to my fitness pal. I needed to have that one thing to hold me accountable for what i was doing and putting it down somewhere everyday has helped. I have also set little mini milestones to reach, like my haircut. I told my husband once I reached the "ONEderlands" I was getting a new haircut! It was just setting little things like that helped me reach certain spots in my progress.

    Thank you EVERYONE for you comments!
