  • I apologize in advance if my last pic offends any bruins fans, I am a hardcore habs fan, we took it too far but i love the shirt lol


    I guess you don't know how big you are until you see pictures.

    I started my weight loss journey on March 20th (the pics with the flowers in the background) at 220lb and as of this morning I hit the big 5-0 at 165lb.

    I have 20 more to go, but I am so happy and I know that it really can be done, and if I can do it, anyone can.

    Hope this is some inspiration.

    For the curious ones, my measurements are:

    Weight: 165lb
    Height: 5'4''
    Frame: Big bones
    Chest: 36
    Waist: 29
    Hips: 41
    Thighs: 23
    Biceps: 12

    You look amazing! Good job!
  • Girl thank you for posting you totally give me hope! I'm also big framed so I don't know if my goal of 135 is realistic or healthy but you give me an idea of maybe what I might look like at 165. You look amazing and you were gorgeous before at 215! You hid your weight very well, but now your stunning! Congrats! Your not far off now!
  • Thanks girls, this means a lot!!!

    Insideme I know what you mean, my goal at first was 135, then as the weight loss progressed, I realized I dont want to look sick. People have already told me to stop.. Saying "You're the skinniest you've ever been, you look good now". But at this point its just a personal vendetta with my own weight. lol
    So I decided on 145, and I figure I'll see if I want to continue from there on

    Good luck and make sure to post progress pics it feels awesome to see it on a bigger screen staring back at you lol
  • You look great! I'm also one with a higher goal weight because of my frame. My major goal is 155lbs (so right at a healthy BMI), after that I'll just play it by ear.
  • You look great! Keep it up!
  • Thanks guyssss

    runningfromfat honestly thats the best way to do it, those stupid bmi standards are ridiculous. how can you tell me what im supposed to weigh by knowing only weight height and age. theres so many more factors, im sure you'll look fantastic at 155!!
  • Congratulations !
  • You look wonderful now!

    I don't think you'll be too skinny or look sick at 135.



    The one way to get thin is to re-establish a purpose in life.

  • You look great, go Habs!
  • Jolina I know, I just need to see if I feel comfortable at that weight I know looking at myself, I can think of plenty of places I can get rid of 30 pounds lolol
  • Wow, what great progress! The big 5-0 is a huge accomplishment- congrats!
  • wow that's amazing. You are about the same height as me. Wonder if I'll look like that at 165
  • we have a similar build. That is why my goal weight is 145. So i think it is a good one. What I am trying to figure out is your measurements. My measurements are just about the same, and I am 30 lbs heavier.
  • You are looking awesome! I also have a big frame and have a higher target weight, but you are looking hot already!
