I would be so grateful if you could share your photos with me. I am really needing some motivation these past few days.

I wish I had taken pics but I was way too embarrased! I am 5'6" and started at 235, now I'm at ~191 (depending on the day...or the moment!) Still going down I hope. My short term goal is 170 and I'll reassess from there. I have a lot of lean mass so I'll never be tiny by any means! I'd recommend getting your body fat tested -- it opened my eyes up as to what's really going on in my body and how what I'm doing food and exercise-wise is affecting it! Oh and measure too!! Measuring for me is always way more encouraging than the stupid scale who I argue with constantly ;-) Good luck!0

I started at 240, I am 5ft 6 and my goal is 150. That would be a total loss of 90lbs. I started the day after xmas 2011. I have lost about 31lbs so far. This site is amazing, I am totally addicted.
You have been such a great friend to have. I really appreciate sharing with you. Thank you so much for giving me support and being so kind0 -
HI! I'm 5'7 and started at 235. I'm now 198. That's 37 lbs in 12 weeks. I have pictures in my profile at 6 weeks and 12 weeks.
It's hard work but it can be done!! This site is wonderful.0 -

No pics yet, I started at 230.2, now sitting around 220.....hoping to get to 150ish, so about 80 pounds to lose in total:) This site is great for motivation and support.0

I'm 5'6", started around 210 though. It honestly might have been higher though. I was too afraid to weigh myself until I'd lost a bit.

I have started again back at 280 my short term goal is to get back to the 250 I was before health issue nasty medication and steriods took over. Today I am learning the tools to be able to eat properly even during days when I am to sick to even think of eating versus days I am feeling a little better and starving.
Lets do this thing..I hear all my clothes calling...0 -
YUP! Me too! 70 pounds down, 30 to go!

I'm just over 5' 6" tall, the before picture is me at about 215lbs (in my riding pants, probably not the most flattering look lol!), and the after is my current weight which is 140lbs. Hang in there!

I'm 5'6" and started at 228 pounds, but now as I write this I'm sitting at 144 pounds. My profile pic today is just a facial split after I'd lost 82 pounds. I have a few more to go but I'd really like to tone up a lot.0
