-63 lbs. Left: January 2013. Right August 11th 2013

Hi everyone. I'm 5'2", and I've lost 63 lbs already since Jan. Looking for another 80-90 more lbs. (Maybe more -- depends on how i feel when i get under 199.) feel free to add me. :)

Thank you! I changed my eating habits completely . . . I mean, there are a few days where I have a few more beers than I'm supposed to which add up the calories . . . but I just tend to fill my plate with veggies over anything else. We only eat chicken, really. We buy big chicken breasts pound them out and split them…

Thanks everyone!!

Thank you! First, started small...Started using the stairs -- instead of the elevator. Then we started (my boyfriend and I) doing Denise Druce Jazzercise. 27 min work out, 3 - 4 times a week.

Just that. . . . "Thank you for your concern, but its none of your business."

No. In my personal opinion -- the sodium in of those things averages almost HALF of what your salt intake should be for the day. Sodium will make you retain water, and make you "higher" on the scale than you should be. My boyfriend and I make food for the week on Sunday night and make it every morning before we head to…

57 lb weight lost Jan 2nd - June 22nd

Big Mac Cassarole (233 calories each serving -- pic shows 2 servings) Cauliflower crust steak pizza. (422 calories for all shown -- half a pizza with 1 breadstick -- all made with cauliflower)

Thats what I thought of too. Look good either way! Good work! :)

This!! I am also a firm believer of coupons! We save at least $10 each trip.

I'm not sure where you are. But my boyfriend and I live on a ramen budget. We have 3 dogs, an the two of us. We prepare a list of things that we need. We do majority of our shopping at discount stores. We buy our meat (poultry mostly!) at Save-a-lot. They tend to have deals where boneless skinless chicken breast is around…

I'm not going to be shamed about posting my progress pictures! (And neither should anyone else!) I've been shamed TOO long in my life for being overweight and not societys perception of beauty. And I will not be made to feel bad about posting my successes! Take your bullying somewhere else!

I can definitely notice a difference. What I do -- because I have a image problem -- I still feel like I am the same size as I was 50 lbs ago. I continually take side by side photos so that I can see the difference -- comparison photos. My phone is full of them. It shocks me every time. But it might help you notice.

Thats what I'm hoping to do! Starting similar weights. I want to get there. What were you doing? Food eating? Ive kind of hit a plateau a bit... :|

One was a mirror picture, i thought the same. If you look at the left in the bottom, looks the same as the right side one.

Thank you!! :) It blew my mind when i took this photo a couple of weekends ago.

Thank you!! :) I have a lot more confidence now! :)
