I started out around 200 lbs, maybe just a little bit less, and I'm now halfway through my journey at 159.6. I still have a ton of days where I look at myself in the mirror and all I can see is fat. Today, I decided to have my boyfriend take a picture of me in a dress that I wore a year ago, when I was at my heaviest, for my brother's wedding. When I saw how different I looked, I couldn't help but share. :D

    You started where I did. I still have more to go and I always see the fat and not the progress in the mirror. I think I need to get a new pic of me in a dress now. Maybe it will make me feel better. TY for sharing.
