I love before and after pictures because they are so great for motivation, and just amazing!! With me being only 5'1", I thought maybe if I could get before and after photos of people of my height, not only will it be great motivation...but help inspire what so many pounds could like off of myself. I am aware of the different body types, and people lose weight differently..but it will still be a great motivation story for me!!! and possibly others as well!!:smile:

    I have dropped from 145lb to 93lb and then back up to 108lb. I'm 5'1.

    Here's my collage from about 6 months ago which shows me at my heaviest, and the bottom row shows progress pics down to 98lbs.

    Since then I gained a lot of muscle.
    Two weeks ago at 108lbs:

    Still a work in progress but you get the idea. This morning I discovered a 2 pack on my stomach.

    Im 5 2 and I have LOTS to lose. I have found a few girls that have lost and they weighed as much as me, I added them as friends on MFP.
    Seeing their pics really gets me excited and makes me want to work harder :)

    Hi everyone. I am 5'2 and at my heaviest I weighed 212 lbs, I couldn't believe how big I was, plus I was so lazy...It got to the point that I couldn't take it any longer and I was going to pay money for a program called ideal protein. Well when I went to the "FREE" seminar it was great but when they told me how much the program would cost, $90 a week, I laughed and told them I have 4 kids & 1 income, how am I able to afford that.

    So I started on my own, I lost 4 lbs before I even started on MFP so I figured maybe I can do this on my own. I weighed in on January 4th at 212.6 lbs and I started MFP on January 8th at 208.6 lbs. It has been a little over 2 months, but I stopped the first 2 weeks of February and gained 5 lbs back. I got back on the wagon and had so much support on here that made it easier. I am now 191.4 lbs, my lowest was 190.4 just 2 days ago, and I have lost almost 3 inches off my waist and almost 3 inches off my hips. I can not believe how much of a difference I can see in myself, let alone everyone else telling me. Its an amazing feeling to know that I am doing this and it works. Its not a diet, its a lifetime change and you have to be willing to do that. You do not have to give up any of favorite foods, just that stuff in moderation. A lot of people have cheat days once a week but I find if I do that then I kind of get off track so I try not to but some times you just can't help it. If you do fall off this new journey just pick yourself up and get back on here, its okay!

    I will post pics as soon as I can. The pics I have are of me naked and even though I have bleeped out my girlie parts, some people do not like that I have posted them so I am trying to be careful to follow the rules. Good luck to everyone and I am here if you need anything. I am really not accepting any more friends right now bc I have so many and I tend to neglect the ones I have at times bc I have so many posts but if you email me I will get back to you.

    Whitneygallien, if that's what 139 looks like, then that's what my goal weight is going to be!
