Well I have decided, in order to keep myself motivated, I would post some before and current pictures of myself! I dont really have many "before" pictures, as I tried my best to stay away from photos of myself!
At my highest weight I was 185.5lbs, which is big for my 5'5" body! At that weight I was about 16 years of age! I started MFP at 175.4lbs! Currently I weigh about 160lbs!
Before: 185.5lbs (check out the bloated face!)

After: At my debs/prom in August 2011!

Again, with my friend:

Great Job! How did you lose the weight?
I just cut down on what I was eating! I had a lot of bad eating days and binges along the way, but everyone is going to have that! I cycled most days during the summer and did the 30 Day Shred the odd day! However now that I am back at school, I havent had the time to exercise much so I just keep a close eye on my food!0 -
