Default I left 50lbs of me back in 2010

I'm pretty excited to leave those pounds behind. I've lost 50lbs since September 1st and can honestly say I've been loving the process! Being healthy is such a wonderful blessing. It's helped boost me out of a four year depression, given me energy and I'm not hiding from the camera as much anymore.

I hate having my pictures posted for the world to see, but I was inspired by the courageous women who posted their before/during/after pictures. So, this is my way of saying thanks and paying it forward.

I can't wait for the next 50!!

Congrats! I'm right about around your weight right now, and I have similar goals - I cannot believe how much you have lost since September! What is your general plan? I'm a calorie counter. And by the way - you look fabulous!!!

That is pretty awesome!!

i'm tempted to go searching for some terrible photos my sister unexpectedly took of me, to store them away as my "before" photos. I swear she was like "if she gets a look at these, finally she'll realize what she's done to her body." In a nice way, not an evil way.

Aww, thanks guys!!

JessandEmma2011--I count calories and exercise. I log everything on Sparkpeople and it seems to work well for me. Good luck on your journey. You won't regret it!

seagirl--I hate my before photo...hatehatehate it! *lol* But, I'm glad I have it. For those days that I feel frustrated by my progress, I take out that old picture and remind myself how far I've come!

I want to say that 2012!

Today I am the heaviest I have ever been, I have been kidding myself....I saw pictures of the New Year Eve's party, and I could not believe how BIG I am....

The scale has been going up, but looking down, it has not been that bad...lol

Camera does not lie.

Thanks for your inspirational story.
