almost 100 lbs down

So it's taken me well over a year, almost 2 (in July) to lose 100 lbs. Slow and steady wins the race right? Still a long ways from my goal but I'm finally proud enough to post a before and after photo. Like most, I always hid from the camera. I finally found one in a group shot from 2002. It's embarassing and a good reminder that I never want to return to that.

Starting weight was over 300 (not sure because I never weighed myself). I'm short at 5'3" I weighed 280 when I started with a personal trainer in July 2010. Current weight: 203. Goal: 135 ish or so.

Also found out that I have adult onset diabetes that might be slowing my progress down. Started taking medicine for that this week and am looking forward to seeing if I progress faster now.
