80 pounds down; 30 to go
 

Since January 2010, I have lost 80 pounds. It's been slower going than I would have liked (and expected!) but I've stayed vigilent. When I started, I told myself I wasn't going to be fat at 40---I turn 40 in July. :eek: Still can't believe it!

Here are a few pictures. The first one is from Nov 2009 when I was at my highest weight. The second is this Easter & the third is in early April. I don't have any "in-between" pictures because I normally hide from the camera.

I'm planning to lose another 30 pounds. Right now, my sizes run anywhere from a 14 to an 18 in pants/shorts/skirts and usually an XL top. I want to be a solid 10/12 by the time I'm finished.

EDIT: The last picture is also from Nov 2009.

WOW you look FABULOUS!! WTG!!!!!!

And you do NOT look (almost) 40!! Not by a long shot!

You look great!!!:woohoo:

I was also going to say that you don't look almost 40, wow.

Good job!!

And we have the same goal, to not be "fat" by a certain age.. although mine is 30, yuck. ;)

CONGRATS!!! :carrot:

Thanks, y'all. I don't feel like I'm almost 40!

Katie, I got thin for 30 too, but regained the weight over time. Honestly, my 30s were so much better than my 20s. I think I really found myself in my 30s.

HOLY SMOKES!! You are doing great!!!

WOW!!! Great job.
