"You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired in the morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired."- U.S. General George S. Patton 1/4/2018 Heaviest Weight 277lbs size 24 Current Weight 255lbs size 18 Active goal: to weigh 196lbs I've been gone a while and I have lived a lot of life in between.

You can read my original opening below this message. Looking back over the past year I see many areas of great achievement and honestly areas where I slacked off! But I am very proud of myself thus far. So many people have noticed my efforts and it just keeps me moving towards my goals. I am 5'8. weight 256 to 211 size 22 to 14 bmi 39 to 32.1 waist 44 to 32.5 hips 48 to 41.5 bust 42 to 38 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 07/2008 Hey! My name is Michelle, I am 26 years old and I am here because I want a healthier life. I do want to be smaller (TRUST ME) but I don't want to have to worry about heart diease, stroke and diabetes (which all run in my family)...and because I want children....I also want to be able to wear whatever I want to!! I'm just taking the time I need to take care of myself and to get myself in order. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT MILESTONES FOR ME: **11/13/08 Bought my very first pair of size 16's ever! Never been smaller** **12/2008 In the 220's- Last remembered weight was in the 230's in high school**---wow! over 30lbs less than my high school weight **2/17/2010 a SIZE 12! out of the twenties and teens!!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Current GOALS: 1) Loose the last 8lbs that are keeping me in the 200's... to be under 200!---REACHED! :) 2) To loose my last 36lbs to reach 160!

To always keep going no matter what!

*Work out 5 a week *Stay within my calorie range- maintain VERY mindful eating. Be between 1500-1700 calories a day. *More fruits, vegetables and water

I love the beach, the outdoors, going to the park, I can recently add I love going to the gym, it is a small family type gym and everyone is really friendly, plus the good feeling I get after I work-out keeps me going back. I love traveling.

My highest weight ever was 277! So starting this journey I've already lost weight, so I know I am capable. My largest size was a 24..I am now a 18/20..Can't wait to go down more! 6/08 ** I am now a size 18 and they are loose. ** I am now a size 16 * fit into my first pair of 14's!~ I am a size 14 now! * I got into some 12s before starting to slowly gain weight again! I am now a 16/18 again.
