Eight months ago I started out at 262 lbs with major health problems. Had anyone asked me then where I would be now, I wouldn't have had a positive answer. Today I am proud to be 216 lbs. During the time it has taken me to lose the weight, I did gain back a few pounds here and there. It hasn't been easy all of the time. But once I really dedicated myself, it was easier. I am no where near my goal weight, as I have 40 pounds to go. At this point, I would be happy with just losing my stomach. The number on the scale, well, it's just a number. I want to look and feel awesome. I am content with everything except for my stomach. Thanks to everyone, especially God, that has helped me along the way. :heart:

    Thanks y'all! I hope to be exactly where I want to be in 8 more months. I love all of the comments and support! I am 5 ft 6 1/2 in. (every half inch counts) A lot of my workouts focus on my thighs. Maybe I should direct that focus on my tummy lol
