    WOW! Can I ask how? Like what foods, did you diet or just eat smaller portions? What exercises did you do?

    I'm lazy. I'm a stay at home mom, so I sit on the couch watching movies all the time. I don't like to work out. My working out is gardening, cutting the lawn, and working with my horse (walking with her, brushing her out etc). So I just said I want to lose 2lbs a week, and I don't go over my calorie goal...

    I don't eat junkfood except ice cream (low fat, sugar free, etc) & that'sonly if it fits in my calories for the day. I drink diet soda when i do drink soda.... I usually put the food I want to eat in my diary frist, to see how many calories it is per serving, so I can see how much i can eat. That's a huge save for me on now to NOT go over my calories.

    Doing a great job - stay focused and dedicated. Running about after a 1yr old will no doubt help too! x

    Fantastic! What a difference twenty pounds can make!

    We're kind of at the same place. I started at 233 and am now at 211. I wish I had taken pictures, but I was not as brave as you. Keep up your great work! We're gonna be hot mammas in no time! =)

    I think it's a great idea!... I know a lot of people don't want to take pictures because they're scared to show people. So this is what I think.... take them, but you don't have to show them. =) There's a great benefit to taking them, even if you're the only one who sees them. =)

    I see myself every day, so I don't "see" the difference when I look in the mirror. But when I compare every 10lbs! I see a big difference. It sort of blows me away to see it and say "wow i'm that much smaller?? i can't wait for the next 10lbs!"
