edited October 6 in Success Stories
Okay so this is my first time posting pictures. I started my weight loss in April 2011 (I am incredibly camera shy so it was hard to find any pictures of me) and by Thanksgiving in October (Canadian) I had dropped from 217 to 185lbs. Sadly I have been stuck at 185 since then but 2012 is going to be a new start and I'm going to revamp my efforts to get down to 130lbs!

This last week I have been pretty annoyed with myself for pigging out on Christmas goodies and I decided I must take some pictures to prove to myself that yes my body has actually changed. And I must say I am pretty proud of myself! and a little angry that I wasn't realizing the things I should of, like I am in the 100's! I haven't been in the 100's for at least 5 years!

Sorry for the bad quality of some of the pictures, I have to take most pictures on my phone because my camera either a.) never seems to have batteries or b.) grows legs and goes into hiding.

    You look amazing!! I'm in the same boat as you. When I started I was 220 and now I'm 189. I am only 5'3'' so I want to get down to 135-140. Good luck to you, 2012 is our year!!!

    Definitely take pictures! I so wish I had taken front and side ones at the start so that I could get a really good idea of how much I have changed. Plus the pictures really help you when you have a bad day and feel like your getting no where, you whip those babies out and see that this is what you have accomplished! I know it made me feel a whole lot better about myself.
