Ok guys, as im new to this and im doing this post for motivation!! I am petrified!! I am going to post a photo of what i looked like 2 and a half years ago at my ideal weight and a photo of me now. Im really scared because this is me admitting how much weight ive put on!! :S but i have to do this to spur me on and show me how good i will feel once i lose the weight again ... so the first two are me BEFORE and the last 2 are me NOW...i have a lot of work to do :(

    thats the thing, there are no results yet lol the first 2 is when i weighed around 140 pounds, the last 2 i am up to 205 pounds which is me now :(

    i am doing this for my own motivation i guess to show me what i need to do!! my bottom half seems to have been the worst hit :( x

    Hey :)

    Well, you've come to the right place with a little hard work and dedication theres no reason why you can't get back to the way you were! You can do this just believe in yourself and soon enough you can post the photos the other way around ;)

    Good luck xx

    You are adorable both before and after the weight factor. I am sure you felt more confident before and now you feel the difference in how you can/can't move around as agile as before.....been there too. Waking up to the realization that things have gotten a lil out of hand is half the battle. Just plug away and log in your calorie intake every day, go to the gym or take walks and slowly but surly you will revolve back to the person you want to be. I am on my way back down too. MFP has made it so much easier than the first time I lost when I was diagnosed with diabetes and doc wanted to put me on meds right away and I pleaded for time to show him what I could do with diet and exercise....just a few months later I was sure the lab got my blood mixed up with someone much more fit, because the cholesterol was within normal range and the glucose reading was normal. I impressed myself and my doctor. YOU can do this :-D

    You look beautiful! I understand you want to be comfortable in your own skin. However, it's nothing to be ashamed of! We are all in this together and all here for the same purpose! I think at both sizes you are a very pretty young lady! You are on the right path to success! Good luck!

    You are so attractive! You will get there once you are ready and determined; and it sounds like you are. Good luck to you! I agree...you don't look like you are 205 lbs.

    It is so easy to let the weight creep up on you and having a picture of you from before at your ideal weight is a great motivator. You will do amazing and will find such great support here. Good luck!!! Feel free to add me :)
