Progress So Far (PICs)

brandiuntz · January 2012

I've been actively losing weight for almost 3 years. Joined MFP almost a year ago to help. I've learned a lot and met some amazing people here. For 2012, I'm focused on fitness improvement, not the scale. I'm 10-15 pounds from goal weight. My final weight will depend on what percentage of bodyfat I get to this year.

To keep myself motivated, I'm posting pics of my progress so far. I'm a believer in "slow and steady wins the race"!

Sept. 2008. I'm not sure what I weighed at my heaviest. I know it was between 215-220lbs. For reference, I'm 5'8", medium build.

March 2009. Had started to lose some weight. 10-15 pounds at this point.

Got serious late 2009-2010. By March 2011, was down to 173lbs. Ran in a Warrior Dash.

May 2011. About 170lbs. Playing sports on the weekends (flag football and softball) feels SO much better now.

November 2011. 166lbs. I've played flag football for 16 years and this season was my best by far.

Journey so far:

Thanks for looking!

Great job! I started at the same weight, and 160lbs would make me soo happy! You look amazing, keep it up!

Thank you for the inspiration. I look forward to the day when I will say..."I am about 10-15lbs away from my goal wait"...watch out y'all!

I am so glad you posted pics of your journey as I am starting from where you started, 218lbs, and my goal is 160lbs. I would love to lose more, but will reassign a goal as I get close. I am so proud of your dedication to a healthier you!!
