    So glad I saw this - you are around my height & you are now at my weightloss goal. You look amazeballs.

    I LOVE that you made exercise as high a priority as "watch breaking bad" lmao.

    I just started today, as I was inspired by a friend of mine who has lost 50 pounds this week! You are truly an inspiration, and you look so healthy and must feel great! My motivation is that I have gained around 30 pounds in 3 years and little aches and pains are becoming a daily thing. I am not going to settle for that!

    Absolutely amazing. I have 80lbs to lose and seem to always be fighting something. It seems that after our 4th child was born that I sort of gave up on loving me and pour everything into taking care of the family. I also have an unconditionally loving husband which I think makes the losing harder for me :) Truly inspiring and I look forward to reading more.

    Wow - thanks for this. I will have to remember to take a look at your blog when I get a chance... its always great to hear from a real person that isn't a fitness machine but admittedly flawed and makes mistakes but gets up and fixes it tomorrow.

    Thanks so much for sharing your story - you look great!

    Thank you for sharing your story! I didn't mind reading the whole thing =D Made the pictures that much more awesome...even though they were awesome in their own right.

    Grats on reaching your goal, and good luck on any goals you set for yourself in the future. You can do it!

    And, now, I feel like I can, too. MFP is really filled with a ton of awesome people!

    *Edit* I will also be reading your blog later....when lunch time rolls around again or I'm not at work, lol

    You look absolutely amazing! I love love love that I found someone around my height so I can get a glimpse of what I could possibly look like in the future (it's difficult to imagine when everybody's pics are of 5'4" or 5'6" people, you know?). Thanks for sharing!
