Last week at my weigh in, I discovered that I had completely gained back all of the weight I had stuggled to lose. I was frustrated, upset, and ready to give up. Thanks to the support of all my MFP friends, I decided to stick with it. I told myself thatm while I may not be losing weight, I am definitely healthier then I was before. I am so grateful for them for keeping me on track. This week I weighed in to discovered that I had dropped down 5 pounds to my lowest weight in years. More proof that a women's weight can fluctuate dramatically due to hormones, water, and other factors. Inspired by this loss, I decided to take a two month progress picture to see if I saw any changes. My journey has been far from perfect and I have made so many mistakes, but I am making progress slowly but surely. I was pleasantly surprised by the subtle changes that were already happening, what do you think?

Before you comment, please remember I am a work in progress.

Starting Weight: 168
Weight joined MFP in February: 157.6 (picture below)
Current Weight: 152.4 (picture below)

    Thanks everyone!
    It seriously means so much to me that people can see me starting to make progress.
    It's really motivational to read all the comments... I'm ready to get out there and go harder then ever.

    As far as what I do to workout... honestly not much.
    I'm a busy college student so I have to fit workouts in where ever I can.
    I've been trying to be better about what I eat, more veggies less pasta, etc.
    I've completely cut out soda and have been working on getting 8 glasses of water a day.
    I walk the long way to my classes.
    I try to go for a short 20 minute run 1-2 times a week.
    And I try to do yoga 1-2 times a week.
    Not drastic changes, but sustainable ones. :)

    Good luck everybody and anyone please feel free to add me!

    thanks!
    The pictures are a huge help... I didn't think I had accomplished anything because I couldn't see a difference.
    I hope everyone here as before pictures to compare to!
