Thank you so much everyone! <3

Thank you so much everyone! :D Your responses definitely helped motivate me today! <3 It's from modcloth.com! It's called the "And We're Live" dress! Thank you so much!

11 months difference!

Once again thank you so much everyone! :) You're all so great!

I did have "cheat" days in the very beginning of my journey, once a week. However, they weren't days where I'd eat whatever I wanted all day, it was more like, "I really want a burrito for dinner - I'll eat a little lighter all day and indulge tonight." So even if I went over, it wasn't by 1000s of calories but I could…

I just stuck with it! It was difficult, but every day I stayed under 1200 calories and DEFINITELY running sped things up! Honestly the time just kind of flew by! Again thank you everyone! :3

It makes me so happy to see everyone inspired - I always thought it was hard to find people with my measurements on here, I'm so glad I could help out! <3 You're all beautiful!

I'm so glad I could inspire you, you can do it! Before I did C25K, I went to my local Planet Fitness. Usually I would do 20-30 minutes of the elliptical, 10-20 minutes on the stationary bike, and then I would try the treadmill. When I first started, I could barely do the C25K regimen, even the beginning stages. So I found…

Thanks everyone! It makes me so happy to maybe inspire some of you!

Thank you so much everyone! I'm glad I could be of some help/inspiration to some of you, you're all amazing!

The answer is: yes! Weight loss is approximately 80% food intake and 20% exercise, and definitely walking counts as exercise, and it's definitely better than nothing at all! Have you tried the elliptical? I found running hurt A LOT when I first started, and the elliptical took a lot of the stress off of my joints, but I'm…

Thank you so much! And awesome, congrats! It's so awesome when you finally start enjoying it! When you get to the point where it doesn't feel like you're dying and you feel like you can run without having to stop it's just amazing! :)

5'4" HW: 210 CW: 141 GW(1): 140 GW(2): ~125 (but mostly I just want to tone up and be in shape) LW: 141!

I started off at a size 16 (probably should have been wearing 18s though, to be honest) and about 210 pounds (5'4") and at the moment I'm a size 8 and at last count 156 pounds! :) Before, hiking: Now (during), before a beach trip, hence the bathing suit underneath haha: Basically I've eating ~1200 calories a day since…

Thanks for all the congratulations everyone!

I would love to see this too!

Just my first gut feeling! I didn't expect it at all, just sort of an instant in-my-brain "this guy's pointing out how fat I was!" But the next second I obviously realized, I'm not the same obese person I was when the picture was taken and it's great that he noticed!

Oh, sorry guys, no I did not get a ticket! Just a verbal warning, thank goodness!

I can't wait to buy some adorable Modcloth dresses once I hit my goal too! Great job!

You look great! Awesome job!

Thank you so much everyone! I really appreciate all of the encouraging comments. :') It makes me so happy that my pictures could help encourage others! Thank you thank you thank you!

It really does! Congrats to you too!

Thank you so much! :') And it makes me so happy that my pictures could encourage you, feel free to friend me if you think you might ever need some extra encouragement, I'd be happy to help at any time!

Thank you! You'll get there, I remember thinking the same thing, and it's amazing how the time flies! :)
