I went shopping with some girlfriends today and I tried on a cute pair of size 16 skinny jeans, and they fit perfectly! I started my weight loss journey about 9 months ago and have lost 58 pounds. I am still not where I want to be so I am still moving forward and losing weight. I am currently 230lbs and my goal is somewhere around 160lbs.

Me at my highest after a speech and debate tournament (288 lbs.)

    Congratulations! That is so exciting. I am just starting my journey and hoping to get to 160 as well. I cannot wait until I have the dressing room moment where I hit my target jean size. Keep up the awesome work!

    You can be! Just keep focused on the goal. Make mini goals and remember them when it's hard to keep goin. And celebrate the little achievements. One of my motivators is my driver's license. I hate having to show ID because I don't like the pic. I haven't changed it though because it motivates me to do better. :)

    Way to go! Keep up the amazing job; it's a awesome feeling when you can try on smaller clothes and it fits..it's not wishing you could fit in a 16..it's I AM fitting in a size 16. Bravo!
