Hey guys,

I started my journey back in May and was at my heaviest ever of 171.4, it was a real eye opener. I couldn't breath, I could hardly walk, I didn't feel good, those glances I had once got from guys were completely gone... after taking my before pictures I could see how out of shape and fat I had let myself become. I made a change for the better, the beginning was tough, I followed the south beach diet... then just went to restricted calories, and I always worked out in the beginning.

I have kinda slacked off recently but have managed to keep losing weight.. I am now down to 148.6... thats 22.8 pounds down.

I would like to be at about 130-135 by my birthday in December. :)

The pictures attached are from when I was 171.4, the next pictures are a progression somewhere in the 160's and then today at 148 :)

EDIT:

1/31/2011: I am now down to 130 pounds :) I still have some work to do, but I am so proud of my progress.I thank everyone on this board for their support.

Wow, your start, current, and goal weights are nearly identical to mine, but you lost it pretty quickly.

How tall are you?
 
Wow! You always were extremely pretty, but now your body looks so healthy and alive. I love the tattoo on your side, gorgeous :)

You look wonderful!
 
Gorgeous! Hang in there. I've been trying to lose the last 10 lbs forever it seems. May I ask how tall you are?
 
Thanks for the replies guys! I am about 5'7". I am restarting my journey and would like to be down to about 130-135 by my 21st birthday on December 20th! :)
 
Hey guys,

Here is an update that I posted in my diary...

So yesterday I had a funny experience, I had NOTHING to wear and I had a really cute outfit in mind... so I go to my closet and found a pair of dress pants I have not worn for awhile (probably since May/June) and they use to be snug on me so I figured "hey, what the hell they will probably fit just right" and I was excited because they are like my FAVORITE dress pants EVER... I tried them on and they were like 5 sizes too big! I couldn't even let go of them or they would fall to my ankles!

So, I am bummed that my favorite pants ever are now like mchammer pant, but I am happy I am losing so much weight/inches!

I took a picture because it was just so shocking and I almost didn't believe it...

I am now down to 144 pounds.
 
Hey you are looking pretty amazing! My goal weight is also 135 and I am also currently at around 144, but I want to reach my goal by Oct. 31st. I have to say I think you look much more fit/toned than I do at a similar weight.

Nice tat by the way!
 
wow you look amazing! congratulations :) i bet it took a lot of hard work but it's so worth it. i would kill for your abs by the way haha good job and you're definitely an inspiration!
 
Congratulations!
You look really lovely.... and so happy!

I bet lots of young women on the site here will be really inspired by your story and your photos. Thanks for updating!
