How do you feel now with all these responses?!!! You are a strong-willed and determined person because you seen something you didnt like and DID something about it!!! You made my day, because sometimes . I forget what my goal is , (until I look in the mirror) I have lost 21 pounds since the birth of my baby in March 2011, its going so slow because I have hypothyroidism, but it can happen, I still have to lose 23 lb. but its seems like it will take forever ! Congratulations on your new body, which is hot! You look totally different ! How does your husband like the new you?? I wish you success in losing the last bit of weight, and hope you will share your pics when you reach your goal!0

WOWZERS!!! You look FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC!!!!!!! I, too, am 5'6" (well, really 5'5.5" :blushing: ) and at my heaviest was 260lbs! I've gone from a size 24 to size 14 (currently at 191 now)...Thank you for posting your pics! You should be so proud of yourself! You've definitely given me the motivation to keep it movin'!!!! :-) :drinker: <-- she's drinking water, of course!This is my first official picture post and I needed an esteem boost today, so I was flipping thru old pictures looking for inspiration and thought I'd share. (as horrifying as posting pictures on the intra-webs is, I'm willing to take the risk now)
Just an FYI: I'm 5'6", 33 yr old, always have been athletic, and overweight. I have bounced around between 185-220 lbs for most of my twenties and then I quit smoking when I turned 30 (yay, 3 years ago and ciggy free) well, the weight crept up to my all time high of 255.2 lbs-YIKES!!!! I was pretty miserable to say the least. Then one day it literally clicked (I mean I have dieted for the better part of 20 years, so I knew the basics of WW, Atkins, South Beach, and many more) I started my journey on Mar 11th, 2011 when I walked a 5k for St Patricks Day and saw the picture below. I was mortified!
I'll let the pictures do the rest of the talking: (hard not to cringe at these befores)
Start: 255.2 lbs on March 11, 2011
These pictures here are over the last 20 lbs. So, a 60-70 lb loss:
Current: 169.6 lbs...YAY, still headed towards my goal of 135. I started at size 20 and now am a size 10, with one pair of 8's!! I've lost over 140"...and swear by taking measurements...do it!! Woohoo!
