    I just saw on your Stats you started in August 2012. I'm glad to see it was slow, which I'm sure contributed to how tight your skin looks. My doctor told me that's why it's best to lose 1-2 lbs per week. Not only is this healthy, but the chances of maintaining your goal weight are greater. I've seen people who lose it too quickly and it ages them because they have so much loose skin. Congrats again! You look great! :)

    This is great info thanks for sharing! I am scared to death of loose skin I have heard so many horror stories!

    As of June 1st I have lost 85lbs! Pretty close my goal of 125lbs (only 8 more to go), but I might change it when I get there.

    As usual, I did the "before pants" pic and during photos as well as my measurements. :)

    Waist- 42 to 28.25 (-13.75")
    Hips- 47.5 to 34.5 (-13")
    BMI- 39.1 to 24.3

    ETA: I started in August 2012. My calories range from 1300-1600 cals. My main form of exercise is walking, but I have done the 30 Day Shred, a few Leslie Sansone DVDs and intervals on the treadmill as well

    You look fabulous, I had to measure my 13 year old boy this am to look for some new shorts for him and he is pretty slim, his waist is 29 1/2. Your waist is smaller than his is. You are doing great now just maintain that and keep looking and feeling great with this new lifestyle.

    I have lost 120 pounds and do have some loose skin quite a bit in my mind. That being said I am much happier and healthier now and I use it as a reminder...
  • You look great. Congrats!!

    You look incredible. I love to see women my height and see what I can attain. I started out 30 lbs heavier and it's been slow going, but it's going. Thanks for the inspiration. :flowerforyou:

    You look FABULOUS!

    I am your height and my goal is to get to 120 with muscle. I am working on it but it's a slow moving train right now.

    Awesome inspiration and just what I needed to see/read this morning.

    Keep up the great work.
