Hi all! I started my weight loss journey April 17, 2011. It's almost a year and I've lost 98 lbs thus far. I *think* I can get to 100 lbs. loss! I'm soo excited! I had to make the change in my life. I'm so glad I did. It's definitely not an easy thing to do, but it's worth it. I changed for the better. There's no turning back. Determination, dedication, and self-disciplined brought me this far and will continue to take me further!! From 247 lbs. to currently 149! Size 18/20 to 6/8! Here are some before and after pics!!

    I love the before and after pics that people post!
    What an amazing transformation you have made! It looks like 2 different women! Also thank you for being brave enough to do a tummy pic, I've had 3 kids and my tummy is very much stretched even after losing 50 lbs; I'm to embarrassed to take a pic like that! Great JoB!

    Wow!!!! Such dedication and truly an inspiration! I started my weight loss journey April 8, 2011 and have lost 55 -- not quite the same accomplishment as you but HUGE in itself! My goal is 80 pounds -- I know I can do it and I know that you'll get those last two pounds off to make it to your goal of 100!!! You look amazing and like I said you've inspired me!
