I'm not at my goal yet, but I've seen some big changes and am pretty happy with how I look now so I thought I would post some before/during (not after yet :) photos. I'm 30 years old, have 3 kids, and am 5'3". SW: 198 (although I think I was heavier than that in the before picture), CW: 156, GW: 110 (I was 110 in the first picture).

2003, 110 pounds, size 2 pants, XS shirts:

2011, at least 198 pounds, probably a little more, size 18 pants, XXL shirts:

Today, 156 pounds, size 10 pants, Med shirts!!!!!:

    Shoot! I thought I followed the directions right on how to add pictures. Can someone help me post the pictures, not just the links?

    I just eat my calories - 1200/day. I'm usually a handful under because I hate to see that red number! I don't exercise, but I am active. It is very hard, but it's so worth it. When I get tempted to eat too much or bad food, I come on here and look at the success stories and motivational posts, and read motivational quotes. A few of my favorites are:

    Nothing tastes as good as thin feels.

    You won't taste it in 6 months, but you'll see the results from not eating it.
