Hi I'm totally new to this site so go easy on me!

It's really inspiring to see other people's success stories and although I've not lost as much as I want to yet (though I don't really know how much I want to lose) I wanted to share my pictures with you all.

Starting weight: 249lbs
Current weight: 175lbs

This is me in August 09. I started losing weight in October the same year and haven't looked back since. It's been hard work but it's paying off, just healthy eating and exercise...that's the way to do it!

And this is me taken last Friday. I wish my face was skinnier but you can't have everything!

Sorry if these photos are really big by the way. :blush5:

And this is me in my old jeans. The first photo was in February when I'd lost around 28lbs, I was proud to see how loose they were then!! When I compare it to now it's pretty mind boggling.

I'm trying to keep my motivation up but it's getting nearer to Christmas eek!!
 
Hey welcome to the site and thanks for sharing, you've done a great job!

just healthy eating and exercise...that's the way to do it!
Happy to hear it, this is the first time I've tried just that and it's working in ways no gimmick diets have done before! It really comes down to being honest with yourself and having a bit of determination and willpower eh.

Keep up the good work I'm sure you'll reach your goal.
 
I have a chubby face too. I don't think that it's going to get skinnier even if I lose all the weight I want to lose. You're looking great! Excellent job.
 
Thanks everyone!

I'm 5'6 :coolgleamA:

Think you're right about the chubby face!! I've been told it's cute though haha.
 
Awesome work!! Great transformation!
I can almost guarantee your face will slim down more and more as you get older and lose a few more pounds. I always had a chubby face too and as I get older it's slimming out - losing weight helps too but I'm sure it's mostly to do with age - was for me anyway.
Keep it up!!!
 
wow... you do look amazing... and yes you are super cute... i don't think you have to worry about your face... it'll thin out a little more over time i'm sure... but you can see a million times improvment already... good job... i hope people can be saying the same for me this time next year..
