208 lbs to 148 lbs - PICS

edited December 2024 in Success Stories
I don't normally do myself as a proof but I thought that it was REALLY motivating that I haven't cringed in the last few photos I've taken of myself... or others have taken... I actually go, "Wow that chick is skinny!"

I've been on MFP for a year and 1 month.

Stats: Starting Weight: 208
Current Weight: 148
Goal Weight: 140

I eat a net of 1800 calories a day and exercise pretty mildly. (working on this part!)

I think my biggest thing was getting rid of the binging of crackers.

After:

With weight loss has come a few other things including taking care of myself more and dressing better.
I don't feel like a bum. :smile:
If ******I****** can do it so can anyone else in the world.

I'm still wanting to lose another 15 lbs.

    Hey, what an inspiration! Not only because of the weight loss, but also because you didn't go overboard and set yourself a reasonable pace at which to do it!!
    Also hats off for getting your courage together!
    To be honest, I wouldn't have recognised it was the same person.
    Good for you!
