Today I tried on a shirt I have had for literally 23 years! I have a small stash of clothes I saved hoping to wear someday because they were special. I bought it to go out dancing with my husband when my oldest daughter was 6 months old. My girls declare it is the right style for now, so I can wear it again??!! The "before" photos are from February of this year. I had already lost a few pounds from the high of 193. Today, in my old white shirt, I am a hair under 150. Of course the ancient picture, with the new white shirt, is... a girl oh so long ago with a new hubby and a little baby. I am so grateful to be feeling like myself again! I could not have done it without my family, walking hundreds of miles, lifting heavy things, and the support of encouraging people here!

Thanks keyten and rosio! @rosio, I don't lift like you, but I know if I had not done some, I would have needed to decrease my calories as I lost weight. I haven't! I'll post a flex pic someday. 😊 😊

You look stunning, lifting weights better to keep the body taut. I loved your photo with your husband a lovely couple😉

I love looking at people's pictures. You are really doing well! I love that you saved special clothes. I have nothing- aside from my wedding dress. (Of course I shop at thrift stores so... that may be a reason. And I have never been physically fit or thin so I guess that wouldn't make sense.) LOL.
