Before and During...

Hi Everyone,
I have lurked on this site for a little while, and have been so inspired by everyone's hard work and courage, so I'm posting my own photos. I hope I did this right...

About me...30 year old female, 5'9". My heaviest was 184. These before pictures were taken at about 181. I'm currently about 168, and my goal weight is 140.

I was very thin (effortlessly, too) for the first 27 years of my life. Then I had my heart broken (twice), started eating more, and broke two bones within a 3 month period, so I exercised less. And ate more.

I hit "rock bottom" when I saw my ex (heart break #1). I was probably at my heaviest (early April 09). I decided I wasn't going to feel like that anymore, and here I am.

Thank you to everyone on this message board who has had the courage to post their pictures...you have no idea how inspiring you are.

:party:Nice job! You are well on your way! Sorry to hear about your heartbreaks; life stinks sometimes. But looking good and living well is the best revenge!

Best wishes on the rest of your journey:auto:

You are off to a great start! Stay focused and you will keep getting closer and closer to your goal. You will heal your own heart when you start to love yourself for all the great things you are doing for yourself. You are going to look incredible when you reach your goal. Looking a lot better already.
 
Wow, your stomach just shrunk right up! Great accomplishment, keep going!
 
Hey, thanks for the encouragement by the way. I'm so sorry about the heartbreaks in your life. Honestly, you looked great even in your before pictures. You should be very proud of the progress you have made. Your progress is really showing. When you love yourself and are confident in yourself, the people that have hurt you ( the ex) don't have the same power over your emotions. Keep up the good work girl
