AHello Everyone,
I have been coming on this site on and off for the last year finding motivation for myself and have been hoping that I could get good results. At my highest weight I was 245 pounds, I couldn't believe it! Today after following a diet and working out on and off with loosing weight and gaining it back and loosing it again I am now 170 pounds. I have about 30- 35 more pounds to loose. I want to be in between 135 and 140. However, I am 5'9 and am bigger boned so if I start to look too boney and un healthy than I will stop.


So here's the beginning..... Around 245 pounds!

I hope my pictures motivate and inspire you as I continue on my weight loss journey!!

Thank you.
Feel free to comment :)
 
You definitely don't need to get as small as 135. You look great at the size you are! I think toning would be good for you though.


How did you do it. I'm exactly the same height as you but weigh 234 pounds. Ideally, id love to get to around 145, but i think that may work out too small. My brothers girlfriend is 164 pounds and she's only about 5'4 and she doesn't look fat, just like she's got a bit of meat on her bones. So me going down to 145 may be a bit too small for my height, plus i'm big boned so i dont think it would suit me.


You look really pretty in the last photo too. Good on you.
 
AThank you girls! I think 135 may be too small as well but I will see and maybe re consider once I get down to 145. I was doing this diet called isagenix and eating healthy and working out.. Now I have been doing ideal protein for the last 6 weeks and have lost 24 pounds on it. I go to the gym but not religiously..
 
Wow, aburnett! Awesome, awesome job! What a wonderful transformation! :)


You should be so proud. You're definitely an inspiration and solid motivation for anyone looking to lose weight on this forum!


You look so fantastic! My belly looks a bit similar to your own in the after pic, and we're the same height. I hope my tummy gets that small when I get down to the low 170s :] I still need to lose ~20lb before I get to that.


Fantastic work! Please keep us posted with your future progress :)
 
WOW you look fantastic, im the same height and build as you, thanks for the motivation, you look great at 170 seriously!! just wondering what do you do in the gym? :D
 
To loose this amount of weight it took me quite a while, I would diet.. Loose a bunch than fall off the wagon and gain some back! That picture was in August 2009, but im pretty sure I was still pretty close to that for the following year. At the gym I usually do mostly cardio with some weight training.. I skip in between sets of lifting weights. Right now im on ideal protein, I have a weigh in every monday morning. Last week I only lost 1.8 pounds but thats better than nothing cause the week before I was down 5.6 pounds so it all equals out :) What keeps me motivated is this fourm and that im going to mexico on april 13, and I plan on weighing about 150 pounds for Mexico.. Kinda limits out the option of cheating!
 
Wow! You look amazing right now at 170! 170 is my ultimate goal weight. Right now I have lost 13 lbs so far and weigh 260.8. I got down to around 200 in 2010 and then ended up gaining most of the weight back. Hoping to really keep it off this time. Thanks for sharing your loss with us! Such an inspiration!
 
Mostly just try and drink a lot of water, and don't put anything in your body that doesn't benefit it :) good luck you already look awesome!
 
unbelievable. You are absolutely GORGEOUS. I hope to look half as good as you do when I lose my remaining weight.. way to get it done, GIRL!
 
Wow! Congrats! You look amazing! I wish my stomach looked like that, I have a long way to go! Kudos to you :)
 
HAWT! Congrats chick! and considering the weight youv lost your stomach dosent look nearly as bad as it could! GOOOOD JOB!!!!! And not sure where your from but im in canada and up here if you loose over 100 lbs you can get a tummy tuck paid for, not sure how that works where you are but its worth looking into (if your self concous about it) im also 5'9 and natually curvy, and currently and 255 lbs i WAS 294lb went down to 244 then gained a few this winter and went up to 255. but thats OKAY! im getting back on track and not going to give up :) how long did it take you to loose the weight? what was your routine? diet exercise? my ideal weight (also being 5'9) is about 180...190 i have naturally big hip bones so i dont want to end up boney but we will see :)
