      At age 29, I was 351 lbs (I'm sure I may have been heavier, but I was too scared to step on the scale so 355-360 was not out of the question). That was 1 year ago (as of April 25). Today, I'm at 192 lbs.

      July of 2004 so I was 44 - 305 lbs. Wound up in hospital for 28 days due to blood clot in left lung and a tumor in pancreas. Came out 30 lbs lighter and decided to keep up with the loss.

      WOW REALLY Y? Im 5'2 also and for us being so short and small, a SAFE HEALTHY weight for us is like 120-125 maybe 118 but ne less than that and WOW really? Why 112?? thats not a healthy weight.. just wondering is all.

      cuz dang I should have been on tv then..I'm 140 now and this weight loss tv show called me back but it was a minimum of 30 pounds.. I said no, cuz that would have put me at a unhealthy weight of 110... Idk just be safe! CUZ UR IN GOAL RANGE ALREADY!!!

      My heighest weight ever was 185lbs on a 5'2" body - It was in 1994 (20yrs old) when my 1st son was 2yrs old or so...Just 3 1/2 years before that (pre-pregnancy) I was only 96lbs....Big BIG jump....I actually was back down to a healthy 118lbs as soon as I left the hospital after having him - I didn't start gaining until he was around 1 - 1 1/2yrs old....I did the same with my now 3yr old...I was 144lbs at 9mths pregnant (35 yrs old) & 128lbs after having him...Then ballooned up to 179 when he was around 1 - 1 1/2yrs old....My body is so weird...lol So I CANNOT blame my pregnancies b/c it was way after having them... Anyways, just wanted to share that for some reason... :)

      In 2011 (was 24 at the time), I clocked in at a 278 pounds. If you want to get technical, the HIGHEST weight was also in 2011 (I suppose I was just bloating at the time), when I was said to have weighed 282 pounds.. but during the next weigh in a few days later I was back to 278 and thus was the weight I started my journey at. Also I'm 5'6. Currently weighing in at 184 or so at 25.

      I started here at 260 back in March (started making some changes a few weeks before that). Hovering around 249 right now and moving forward! :-)
