    U r awesome and very inspirational. I am losing slowly too. I want it too last and I hate being hungry so It will be about 7 months before I get to goal if I just keep plugging away.

    Thanks for the encouragement. I'm 5'2 and I was at 159 and said the same thing. I'm glad you made it to 125 it lets me know that I'm not asking to much of myself. If you can do it so can I!!!

    You look FANTASTIC! What a transformation. I love that you weren't super big before but it just shows that you can still change the way you look and feel drastically. Wow :)

    Thank you everyone for your kind words!!! I know, I can't believe I'll be turning 44 this year. Didn't I just graduate from college??? Where does the time go?!

    I just wanted to update this thread that I'm only .8 pounds from my goal weight!!! Today was my target date to reach 124.0. I got pretty darn close by weighing in this morning at 124.8!

    Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you and I look forward to maintaining this healthy lifestyle for the rest of my life. I plan to stay active on MFP as well. Hopefully I will have some new pics to share once I reach or surpass my goal soon!

    Good luck to you all. I wish you all success!
