edited December 2024 in Success Stories
I have been in a funk lately and needed a little motivation. So I decided to make a new before and after picture. Note: I do NOT do ANY crazy dieting. I do NOT cut foods out completely. I calorie count, PERIOD!!! Oh, and I work out a lot (gym, Zumba, weights, walking, etc.)

BeforeandDuring335-199.jpg

I LOVE LOVE LOVE to have new MFP friends. If you are going to add me, I just need for you to be serious. I hate when I become friends with someone and they want to lose 6 pounds (total). Then they whine "oh my god, what am I going to do?!?! I ate 3 M&M's today!!!" And they eat under their calories on a daily basis. These are people I get rid of REAL QUICK!!!

EDIT: For those that asked about how long it took....

2007 - 335 lbs
2009 - 243 lbs (-92)
2011 - 271 (+28) *Started MFP
TODAY - 199 (-72)
«134567…12

    Amazing! You look FANTABULOUS!!!

    I "only" want to lose a little bit - but don't care as much about the scale as I care about looks/clothes fitting/ etc. because the scale is just number :)

    And I LOVE m&m's ;) pfft, eating 3 is teasing!
