Started at 285 lbs, down to 239, still going down...

You look fabulous and your effort is TOTALLY paying off!
You are so pretty by the way! =)
 
You still look the same because you are a smaller version of the same shape. I can definitely see a difference in your face, you have a pretty one I might add. Keep up the good work.
 
you look great. its obvious you are doing it for health reasons, cause you sure dont need to look any better ;)

Well to start I joined TaeKwondo 2 hrs a week, and I worked out twice a week after class doing cardio. I watched what I ate. For the first few months I joined weight watchers where I lost the first 21 lbs.

Now: I work out 6xs a week and have karate 4 times a week. I also take horseback riding lessons weekly. I try to count calories but I'm not ultra strict about it YET because I have a hard time getting the calories in in the first place so I just try and make healthy choices. I focus on veggies & protein, cutting carbs and drinking water.

For more specific details you can check my journal. The link is in my signature.

He wasn't changing with me, he was training me. We just had a big blow out sort of deal... Stupid men. So then I was on my own.
I've really found that working with people is hard. I invite my friends to the gym all the time and they continue to bail. I just give up because it's all about me and my goals anyways. Not to sounds selfish, I'm only that way when it comes to this. I do this for me! :]

I give you soo much credit! I hate it when people eat crap around me. It's the worst!! Pizza? Chocolate? Argh... it's downright painful. I did resist cookies someone brought to class last night though! I was so proud. hehe. WTG with keeping on even when the people in your life don't support. I'm here for you if you need anything! <3
 
I've seen your avatar many times and each time I think, "man that is a pretty girl!" I like your last picture in your post even better though. You are beautiful. :D I think it is confirmed now, everyone thinks you are pretty. :)

Now, keep it up! You are doing great so far but the journey will only get better. I think for those of us who had to lose a lot of weight, in many ways we appreciate our health and our beauty more than the majority of people who have been in great shape their whole lives. I walk around with a smile on my face all day. I just can't help it. And I can't tell you how many nice conservations I have with people everywhere I go now. I am starting to think they can sense my happiness. I think I can see that in your smile.
 
Yeah. This

I know what you mean about not being able to see a diffrence in yourself because I always have the same problem! It's not until I put the weight back on and more then look back at old photos do I relise that I did infact look ok.

Youve done a great job and bloody hell girl your so pretty!!!
 
Thank you guys! <3 I'm at 236lbs now and keeping up the 6x's a week 30 minute work outs + karate, horseback riding, etc. Your support is all so appreciated! I hope to get more pictures up soon!

U R Gorgeous!

WOW! You are a beauty! I am so happy that you started this journey and stuck to it. GOOO YOU!!! I know it's hard to see the changes in yourself because you see yourself everyday, but let me tell you: There is definitely a difference. I hope you continue on and work hard to be the best you can be, inside and out and I am rooting for you along the way, hun! :party:
