I have been overweight my entire life. However, I have only just realized the impact on my health within the last five years or so. It has been a struggle to change and adapt, but if I am to be healthy, I must.
I am happy to say that I have succeeded in losing 80 pounds. Some of those pounds I lost more than once, but who is counting? Right? I am finally down to 199. I am smaller than I have ever been in my adult life. I am excited and thrilled!
What a difference! I still have some pounds to lose before I can consider myself in good health, but I am on my way.
Here is a progression shot so far. This is the same identical outfit in all photos. You will notice how tight it was in the first one.
Along with the weight loss, I decided to get a makeover and I am pleased with the results. I love my new hair!
Here I am in my new "little black dress" and heels! I never thought I would be wearing heels! This is not the end of the journey. My goal is to weigh at least 140, and maybe even less.
Have joy in the journey.
