    WOW 66lbs made a huge difference on you. You are very pretty both ways, but glad you got in shape and took care of yourself. You are right, weight loss is a marathon not a sprint. Keep up the hard work.

    On January 6, 2011, I joined MFP with hopes of losing a major amount of weight. At my heaviest I weighed 260lbs. :sad: As big as I was, I did not have one health issue (but secretly I kinda wished I did to at least make me feel better about how bad I let myself go). :embarassed:

    I watched what I ate and started exercising - like for real (this time) and quickly lost 20 lbs. w/in the first 2 months. I joined MFP with the hopes that I'd learn better ways and be more consistent. I logged everything for over 6 months then took some time off to see if I could maintain on my own: no logging, still watch what I eat, maintain my exercise regimen, etc.. I hit a few plateaus along the way but today I decided to put together some before and "during" photos and am almost blown away. I've only got 7 more pounds to go to reach my first "goal" weight of 185 but ultimately I'd like to be somewhere around 170-180 to maintain (for me, that's perfect...I think...lemme get there first then see how I feel...may want to keep going). In any event, I wanted to share some pics to possibly inspire someone who's got quite a few pounds to lose and just can't seem to get started. You've heard it many times before - SLOW AND STEADY WINS THE RACE...well, I'm winning...we're ALL winning! :happy:

    GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing, your post and pics are very inspiring!

    How nice of all of you. Someone mentioned my height - I'm not tall at all - 5'6"...I hear that often: "You don't look like you weigh..." Like my grandma would say, "My bones must be heavy." lol. Just kidding - thanks again for the compliments and encouraging words, y'all! It does help to keep me pushing through! Be blessed everyone!
