I started out with 270 and lost 23 lbs. At first I was going to do 10 lb goals, and as soon as i reached that i figured i'd bump it up and aim for 25. Jumped on the scale this morning and i weighed in at 247. I'm pretty happy. Although It's just a 1 pound loss since last week, so i was slightly disappointed because i knew it was my own fault that i just didn't push hard enough and didn't completely stick to my diet(nothing specific, just healthy eating).

So from today my next aim is for a total of 30 lbs even(or more, i always aim for more lol).

Congrats!!! That's a good feeling....hope to "feel" it soon myself!

Fantastic work! Wishing you continued success!

Thanks !! 25 lbs has been reached as of yesterday morning !! Of course I'm including photo's because I never notice how much it actually made a difference until I put all three photo's together, once i looked at them side by side it was such a motivation boost.

Then I think, wow, only 5 lbs until i hit 30 lbs and that gives me even more of a boost lol. So, I started at 270 and Now down to 245. !

Congrats!! Your pictures are really good motivation, because I feel great about the weight I have lost, but feel like I don't "see" it.

Awesome!

I'm so excited to be PAST my first mini goal !! I weighed in today at 239! My birthday is in 3 months and 12 days, So my next goal is to lose this last 39 lbs to be down to 200 ! (Which btw when i get to 200 i finally get to schedule my breast reduction that i've been waiting for, for the past 10 years) this has been a GOOD day !

The past couple of weeks i've almost fallen into old bad habits, I did what i wasn't supposed to do and bought a bag of chips and grossly polished them off in a single evening and felt really sick after. It was kind of like a lightbulb went off in my head afterwards and it was telling me, this is why you can't eat these anymore, you can't stop at just a few and this is why you gained all this weight in the first place by binging. It was a small set back but it renewed my motivation to climb back on the wagon. That one small falter isn't going to set me back so much that i completely ruin my clean eating, It happened and I just have to try harder not to let it happen again.

You look fantastic! Congrats!

Congratulations!!

Thanks every one !! As of today I ONLY have 16.5 lbs to go until i reach a grand total loss of 50 lbs which makes my total loss 33.5 lbs and i've lost a total of 11 inches. It makes me so excited and even more motivated now then when i first started my journey.

When i first saw the number 237.5, it didn't seem like a whole lot until i started doing the calculations of how much i'd actually lost and how far i have to go for the other mini goals i have set for myself.
My next goal is to get to at least 40- 45 lbs gone by our family reunion August 26th. which is only another 6.5-11.5 lbs. Even to get to 40 lbs would be flipping awesome !, which mean's i'd be down to 230.

Once i reach that goal, the next goal is to lose the last 20-30 by birthday, Nov 3rd,a bit harder to do, but i'm shooting for a high goal so that even if i don't reach it completely, I'll know that at least i tried my very hardest and didn't slack off.

New progress photo attached ! Though i JUST noticed that my red T-shirt (that i finally got to fit back into and haven't fit into it for 3 years) makes my boobs look huge compared to my other progress photo's lol.

Awesome progress!

Great job!! You look so much better. Keep aiming for the goal you have for your birthday!!
