I started at 317lbs, currently at 185. Started in Sept-2012.

You look amazing! So proud of everything you have accomplished. And I LOVE the red dress! ;)

I purchased 3lb/5lb dumbbells instead of the resistance band. Also I purchased a thicker mat because ouch - butt bone on the ground in C sit position! I would say at a minimum you need a 5' x 5' space to workout in. Most movements you stay in the same space or move around just a little.

I'm in the 2nd week of Gamma now. It's an amazing program and easy to stick to because it's only 25 minutes! You will see amazing results with it as well. I haven't lost as much weight as I had wanted to, but muscle gain and definition has been amazing!

You look fantastic! I love seeing other women my height and see where I can be! I may shoot for 150 now. :) I was only thinking 175, but wow!

Amazing progress and you look amazing in that white dress! Like a new person!

I was 250lbs/5'9" when I started Insanity. I lost a total of 16lbs and a TON of inches. I had to modify some things, but by the end I was able to do everything and it was an amazing program to show me how strong I was.

Be honest with yourself and remember you will mess up but don't ruin everything for a bump in the road. Set small goals like others have said. I have a total of 140 to lose and they don't have to be set -5lb or -10lb goals either. When I started at 317lbs my first goal was just to get to 299. I literally had one goal to…

I only lost 16lbs total during the program, but my body changed completely! Keep it up - it's an amazing program. Here are my results if you want to check them out: http://www.cookefamily.us/2013/06/24/getting-healthy-yes-i-am-insane-final-results/

Beautiful! And that red dress is gorgeous! Thank you for sharing your story.

Thank you for this post! I'm really glad I read this too. While I've been eating 1500-1600 calories a day, I have recently been having a hair loss issue and this totally clicked. I workout 5x a week (high intensity) and just calculated my TDEE which is WAY more than 1600! I'm going to switch it up.

Amazing progress and I love the shirt in the after pic. :)

Fantastic! Loved reading your story and your arms are killer!

I didn't lose as much as I wanted, but I have to say my results were amazing in how they changed my body, toned me, and my cardio was so much better. I blogged about it - check it out. http://www.cookefamily.us/2013/06/24/getting-healthy-yes-i-am-insane-final-results/

I lost a total of 16lbs and almost 11 inches over my body. I thought I would lose more going into it, but by the end it wasn't really about that, but about how much healthier I had become.

I'm currently doing DDP Yoga and running. I REALLY want to do T25 but don't have the money for it right now. Hoping to do it this winter.

Amazing! As a tall girl who has 140lbs to lose, seeing posts like this give me huge inspiration!

Thank you!

Here are mine Day 1, middle, then Last Day

Fantastic progress! You look great and love that dress!

You look amazing! Love seeing other tall girls who are losing and looking great! I started at 317 and am currently at 233. It's so exciting to me getting closer and closer to under 200!

Loved your story and love seeing someone who is the same height and similar goal weight that I want to get to! You look amazing!

Wow. I thought I was the only one who did this. I will lose like 5 - 6 lbs in a week, sit at the same weight or fluctuate 1 - 2 lbs for 2-3 weeks, then drop again. It's frustrating too, but a mystery of the universe to me. :)

Awesome progress! I am finishing up Insanity this week. My waist has seen the most improvement as I see in yours!

Thank you for posting this. I am halfway through my journey of 140lbs to lose and your words really hit home to me. I especially love the before and after picture of you and your son.

Fit into a size 16 (american) this weekend! Down 5 sizes so far. I had bought a pair of capris a month ago that were a size 16 because they were on sale. Tried them on, they zipped up, felt amazing!

Amazing progress! You look great and love the dress!

AMAZING!!! Great job!

Great job! I started C25K at 300lbs! You can do it!

Amazing progress! You look great - keep up the good work!
