I started my size healthier journey the day I delivered my son. My highest weight was 350lbs (yeah, I go off my before I gave birth weight) I was ecstatic to lost 120lbs on my own through eating healthier, portion control, increasing liquids and staying active. No diet fads/surgeries here! I am now on my 2nd year of my lifestyle change and yesterday I hit ONEderland! Weighed in today at 199.1 or 150.9lbs lost in about 19 months! Anyone who is reading this and is just starting their size healthier journey know that I am living proof that you can do anything you set your mind to do! You can do it!

Edit- I am currently in size large top and those pants I was shocked to see are size 14s!!

I am excited to be having surgery to remove my abdominal apron (pannus) on the 18th of June (Panniculectomy) and work on toning once I am recovered!

Thanks for commenting/viewing! <3

    That is awesome, and you look great. I don't have any pics of my weight loss, but went from 180 to 135, and I thought that was tough. You are an inspiration, great work :)

    You make it sound so simple when you list those four easy steps (portion control, moderation, increasing liquids, and staying active), but I know it was a challenge and you did it! Great job! And thanks for the reminder that it is doable. You look beautiful :)

    It definitely wasn't easy...but believe me it was so worth it! I have pretty much eating anything I wanted just in moderation. Denying yourself IMO isn't good, you will burn out and fail faster than just moderating how much you eat! Thanks so much! :D
