Hey ya'll!

This is the first time I am posting pictures on here as a success story.

I Started MFP on 1/9/12 at 194.2 LBS and, as of last Monday, am down to 175 LBS

I Love this group because most everyones GW is 140 and up. It is discouraging to see ladies with Goal weights in the 120-140 range(Usually shorter gals). Very few tall ladies are able to reach that weight and look healthy at it. I don't think I could. The lightest I have been my adult life is 150lbs and I look great at that weight. I am pretty muscular through my arms and legs and don't think I could get much lighter and still look healthy.

We went hiking two days ago, thats when my husband snapped the second picture. I can totally see a difference and it makes me feel good. Alot of the cellulite has left my legs and they are more defined again.

I still have 25lbs to go!

This is me the very first week of January at 194.2
Notice the stretchy pants? Thats all I wore for a few weeks there :-(

This is me as of 2 days ago at 175 lbs

also, I took this picture to show my sister that I wasn't spilling out of my size 30 Miss Me jeans (I started at a 14/33)
They are too tight to sit in but I will start wearing them in the next couple weeks I bet!
Pardon the silly red lines, I was sitting prior to the picture...

    You look so great! And I agree about the shorter girls success stories. One of my best friends is 5'1 on a good day and weighs 105 right now I think. I just look at here when she tells me these things...I have no words....lol. It is so nice to see others with goals weight close to mine. I am 5'11 and my goal weight is 155...hopefully I will get there!! Anyways congrats on your weightloss so far you look absolutely terrific! And good luck on those last 25 lbs!!

    Thank you ladies for your kind words. I know it can be discouraging to see all these little numbers floating around whether they be others goal weights or our own pounds loss thus far but, it's gonna be worth it when we are there! I shall post again when I am at my goal!

    Awwww! You all make me feel so wonderful! Thank you! I have been working so hard to get here and I have just started pulling things from the middle of my closet....Now, if I could just get down to a weight that would have me pulling from the back of the closet :laugh:
