I have been going from 168lbs up to 172lbs for 2 months now and getting very frustrated. So I found an older picture of myself today from my heaviest of 224lbs. I am currently at 168lbs.

This is May 2010. I am on the far right.

And here I am today with my youngest daughter after our bike ride.

I still have at least 30lbs to go, but looking at the old picture today made see just how far I have come!

    Wow, you have done so well. You have lost 52 lbs, that's not to be sneezed at.
    I have been stuck on the same weight for 6 weeks so I am feeling your pain. Hang in there the last lot will come off and in the mean time enjoy what you have achieved, it's wonderful.
    You'll get there.

    Great job! As much as I hate the camera, at least it provides proof of what you've accomplished. Best of luck on the rest of your journey!

    I agree too, you are doing great! It is hard though when you seem to hit a plateau. But now you have re-focused and are ready to get it going on again. Keep it up, you are an inspiration to many of us.

    You are doing fantastic. Photos always help. I have been going up and down the same 3lbs as well. I hung up photos from before to help me too. Keep up the hard work!!

    You look great, looking at your face in the two pictures you can definitely see the weight loss. I had the same problem a few weeks ago and like you after putting the two pictures together really let me know it's working! (Even more then seeing the numbers on the scale go down!)

    Great job!
    I can't muster the courage for photos yet (I've been dodging cameras for so long!)

    And would you have been out riding with your daughter 56 pounds ago? That's quite a change and you'll reach that final goal!
