Today I am wearing the same dress I wore 30lbs ago...Looks ALOT different on me now! Here I am in the middle at 186ish - all time high! ( I am 5'8'' )

Now, Here I am 30 lbs lighter at 156. My new goal is 146 by Christmas.

My lowest since starting MFP was 149 - then I gave up a bit becasue I was so in love with my new body and got lazy. :sad:

A reminder to EVERYONE once you hit your goal, do NOT stop. Do not think a little of this and a little of that becasue that's what I did and I gained back 7 lbs!

Good luck to you all! And feel free to join me in my goal to lose 10 lbs by Christmas!!!

Cheers!

    Fantastic! You look GREAT!! Keep up the great work! It's easy to slack after reaching a goal cause you work so hard and personally I think exhaust ourselves, I've totally been there! My lowest was 144 and then life got busy, stressful, I was stuck in another state for 2 months, and gained some back even with exercise, but we just have to pick right back up and never give up! Our journey's don't just end cause we reached a goal, we have to keep on the path everyday! WTG on your success so far!

    Congrats on your loss!! I really see the difference! I too took a picture of myself in a dress as a 'before', not sure if I plan to actually wear it in an after picture. Anyway, clothes are always such great motivating/measuring devices for weight loss!

    Good luck to you as well in losing your last 10 lbs., you can definitely do it by Christmas! I'm striving to hit my goal weight by Christmas (losing another 20lb.)
