Hi all :cheers2:

I have been on here for about 2 months now.
I mostly post in my diary and I cruise around the site for support and extra motivation. Since January I have managed to lose 28lbs.
My starting weight was 283lbs and I am now 252lbs. My minigoal is to be down to 240lbs by april and so I am almost there :) Initially I'd like to be down to 180lbs by newyears and the ultimate goal is probably around 175lbs and that's where I'll stop. I have a large frame, I am a tall girl 5'8 and so I was advised that my ideal weight should be 175-180lbs. At my smallest I was 189lbs and I looked nice and thin and healthy at that weight so if I can make it down to 180lb I'd be the happiest girl on this planet.
I have decided to post some B4's and inbetweens just to see if you guys can see some difference. Sometimes I notice sometimes I dont, I guess it's just my eyes adjusting lol. And if you like to find out more about me and how Im doing it just visit my diary I want to love myself again by NeverGiveUp.

I notice my weightloss all over, I tried on all my clothes and everything is becoming pretty loose. I cant wait to go down even more. It's not even about the looks as it is about how being thinner and healthier feels and I feel already much better and much more confident.




Now 252lbs

Thank you allll <3 I really appreciate the feedback.

I am still working towards one chin lol but all in good time that shall come as well.
I think the one thing that I did differently this time around trying to lose weight is making myself realize that weightloss doesn't happen over night it is a long process and it's a life change. Before I would expect to see a transformation within a month and if I didnt see much results within a week I'd tell myself "meh...it isnt happening" so I would go back to my old ways. But this time...I am so for real!
It is so scary how weight can hold a person back from having a life. I speak from my heart when I say that there are so many things that I want to do in my life but my weight and my lack of confidence is preventing me from doing that. I remeber before christmas me and my friends were all talking about going to CedarPoint ( Rollercoaster park) this summer and I was agreeing that we should go but in the back of my head I was thinking that I probably wont be able to go on so many rides because of my size and the fact that I won't be able to fit into them and thennnn I'd use a stupid excuse like "Im too scared to go" but in reality i am not and Id love more than anything to go. So small example I know but that defines how everything has been with me in my life since I gained this much weight over the past 5 years.
I just want to be free of it and enjoy my life and it looks like that it's finally happening :)

Again thank you guys for the positive words it means the world to me :)
 
Hey girl - well done you look amazing!!!!!!
i m the same height as you - aiming to get down to 180 ish too!!!

Good luck - keep up the good job! :hurray:
 
Wow! You do NOT look like you weigh 252! Such a pretty girl, just imagine you when you hit goal :)
 
You're doing great!!! I know exactly what you mean about being limited by size. I have felt like a prisoner of my size for several years and it has affected my ability to do yard work, play golf, work on my cars, play with my kids. I've had no energy and my knees have been killing me. I felt like a prisoner of my own body and I'm changing that and now able to do things I couldn't a few months ago. It is a long process and a life change, but so worth it. I lost a lot of weight 10 years ago, but I thought it was going to solve all of my problems. Well, I found out the difficulties of life don't depend on what size pants I'm wearing. I'm going into it with a whole new perspective. I don't have any unrealistic expectations that it will be a magic cure all, but I will be able to do the things I want to do and be healthier for myself and my family. That's enough of a motivator for me.

Anyway, you're doing wonderfully so please stick with it. I know how you feel as do a lot of others here. This forum is a great resource for information and is full or wonderful supportive people. Anytime you need some help, encouragement, information, motivation, or just to chat about your struggles or successes you have a lot of people here you can count on.
 
:) THank you everyone for the positive feedback it is much appreciated and yes needed. There's nothing better than a dose of encouragement and support so thank you very very much <3


Justine : We can do this girl! You have already come so far, it's very motivating to see:)
Camdon: LOL well thank you that is nice to hear but sadly the numbers don't lie. It probably has to do with my height, I tend to carry my weight equally all over so its a nice illusion.
Bugdude: I agree and I feel just like you and thank you very much for the support and encouraging words, it was very kind of you and it's making me feel a lot better about the future.

I am planning on putting some new pics up once I hit my 240 goal :D so I can't wait yay!~
 
Wow, you so dont look like you weight 252, no way!

Your so pretty, your going to be a knock out when you reach your target.

good luck
