Thumbs up Hello Everybody!

I'm new here and came for some much needed motivational support and hope. My journey began 6 years ago when I gained a ton of weight. At my peak I hit 205! My weight loss journey has been gradual. Last year I got down to 170 and maintained loosing only 8 pounds over the course of that year. BUT I didn't gain! After seeing pictures of me from July 4th (from one of those cruel wide format cameras) I decided it was time for me to get my butt back in gear. I was at 158 on that date.

Today I am at 148. It has been a difficult journey and taken a ton of dedication and commitment. Now that I am down to my final 18 pounds to lose, the scale is going extremely slow. I finally resorted to taking my measurements on Monday so I can track the progress.

Total lost to date 57pounds! 18 pounds to go!

I think those last few pounds are the hardest but you'll do it.

Default Thank you

Thank you for the support! I used to look at people my size and wonder what their problem was thinking they needed to lose weight, but not anymore! I still have more work ahead of me.
