I started calorie counting again last Monday and would love to see some before and after pics. I would like to lose 20-25 pounds by the end of July, is it possible? Can I see your weight loss journey Thanks

I have some linked in my signature. There is also a whole forum of Goal Pictures to check out

Yep - mine are linked in my signature. The link will take you to the goal section, with tons of other stories!

Wow, you look great!!!!

I will have to try and find my way around the board to the goal pictures lol Thanks

i just added my progress photos and we are the same height..! theyre in the mini goal forum

There is a before and current pic on my blog at http://findingradiance.blogspot.com

I'm your height and I just lost 25 pounds in the last 3 1/2 months. I started about 20 pounds lower. Due to life right now, I'm not able to get in much official "exercise", though I'm trying to be somewhat active as I can. So, if you do diet and exercise, I think you can certainly come close. And, for me, the diet has been a switch to healthier choices, including tons of veggies, fruits and whole grains. Keeping track of what I eat has been an eye-opener, too. It not only helps me keep my calories in check, but it can help me notice when I'm slacking on the veggies!

Your plan is a tad aggressive. You have about eleven weeks. So, even if you lost two pounds per week, you'd only lose 22 pounds. But, I say go for it! I wanted to be at an ideal weight for my wedding. Then I realized it was too much to lose in too short a time, so I didn't do anything. I wish I had!

I'm going to the beach in July I would hate to have to wear shorts on the beach this year I'm going to stick to it. Right now I'm starving because we had hotdogs for dinner and they are SUPER high in calories. I hate making different meals for different people so I try to just go with the flow and stay within my limit. I have about 200 calories left for the day

Y'all look great!
