    If you're still over 200lbs I want your camera! You must be very tall because you certainly don't look like you're over 200 lbs.

    I've gone from a size 22 to a 12 in exactly 3 months. I had lost 20lbs with the help of MFP but got stuck and motivation was slipping. I decided I needed help and, since surgery was never an option (LapBand, etc) I signed up with a small local gym and have been working with a personal trainer since August 1st. I'm eating 1100 calories/day until I plateau, then I'm bumped to 1300 until I, again, plateau...then back to 1100 and so on. It's working and I'm feeling great!

    To be fair, I'm just over 200 (202) LOL! And I used my phone to take the pics...and am 5' 8" tall...

    Thank you! I carry my weight ALL OVER (even my hair is fat, LOL!). I'm very blessed in that respect but sometimes it makes it harder to see my progress, too...
