Well I finally reached half of my 50 lb start goal so I decided it was time to post some progress pics. The one on the right is me at 223.5 in May of 2009 and the one of the left is me at 198 today, October 04, 2009. Hoping to hit the second half of the goal by January 31, 2010!!

Keep it up!

You look amazing! I am totally wowing right now. Keep up the good work.

Great results! Very inspiring! How tall are you?

Thanks everyone!! To answer a few questions... I have been getting my results by following a close calorie count, usually between 1300-1700 a day and trying to keep my nutrients at the correct levels. I am using a program on my computer to help track it. I usually do cardio about 3-4 times a week either walking 40 minutes or stationary bike for 30 minutes and I am only 5'3".

And again, thanks for all the support!!!!
