Hey yall, so i started this journey on 8/25/2011, and i weighed 224.8. I'm fun-size so every pound was noticeable. I remember telling myself that if i ever got to 200, i would just start starving myself HA! that clearly didn't happen. But i'm happy to say that over the last 6.5 months, i have learned so much about proper nutrition, compassion towards oneself, willpower, and strength. I know now that i am stronger than i believed and i can do any & everything i put my mind to. I'm only halfway to my goal but i feel amazing so i thought i would share :)

    Yowzer! Look at the difference in your waist and your legs! You're really working out hard, aren't you - and you are looking SO good.

    Hope my successes are that noticeable one day - and as beautiful!

    I was the exact same that I would never get over 200. Told my husband if I ever reach 200 kick me in the *kitten*. He didn't so I was nice enought to myself and got to 260 before I started to do something.
    Wonderful Job ! Congratulations.

    Thanks for sharing.... You have just increased my motivation. I just joined last week and my first weigh in is Sunday. I have yet to go over my allowed calories and exercise 30 mins three to four times a week. I'm really feeling this myfitnesspal!!!

    God bless and may you continue to be successful on your journey.
