However, I am not done yet:) I'm about half way through. I went from 246.5 to 210.4 and I still want to loose at least 30 lbs, it seems so far away! I would love to see/hear success stories from people with my height, and how they got there! I do Zumba at least three times a week, I actually eat more than I used to because I wasn't eating enough, and I drink a lot of water.

    I am 5'9 1/4 and this is a side-by-side from when I was 50lbs down (from 204.8 down to 153)... I'm hoping to eventually get somewhere in the 140s

    :flowerforyou: Good luck with the rest of your journey!!!

    I'm 5'8", started at 318, but had already lost 27 when the first pic was taken. Second pic is me after losing 101 lbs.

    This is a side view I took after someone told me to stop dressing like a fat girl! Still have about 50 more lbs I want to lose.

    Congrats to you as you look amazing I'm 5' 8" and was 213.4 and are now 185 i have discovered the gym and walking something i never thought i woud be interested in as was a bit of a couch potato. now i love it also love not having quite the tummy i had before .. but why is it that is the last fat that goes? My legs, bum and boobs have lost the most. but its the little things like no more multiple chins and my eyes seem bigger as ive lost weight of my cheeks ( no more moon face) my question is why did i wait so long.
