    jenniebean1680... I'm so sorry about your Mom. I lost mine 3 years ago, and my dad 2 years ago, and it's hard. Congrats on your wedding... you're going to rock that gown! *HUG!*


    Thanks Lorina. It means a lot to hear back from you, and OMG I am so sorry for your losses. I can't imagine both in the span of a year... I send hugs right back. And I hope to have LOTS of good pics of me in my gown to share come August! :) xoxo

    I was just talking about this with a friend the other day: how the exact same weight and height can look soooooo different on people (or the same person at different stages in your instance). I'm one of those people who technically by BMI standards am very slightly overweight, yet I'm very fit and even my doctor at my last physical said something to the effect of me "not looking like I weigh as much as I do." Always a good life lesson to not get hung up on the number on the scale, but rather to go by inches, how you feel, muscle tone vs. fat, etc. Hard for me to remember sometimes.

    You may be better off measuring body fat percentage than weight at this point, and look at that as your metrics.

    You look great! That last picture is amazing - your butt looks way better than when you were younger! :P Keep it up & I think you have a great attitude about staying fit & not worrying so much about the scale. I know I focus on the scale too much & sometimes get discouraged, but then when I look at pictures I took when I first started vs. how my body looks now, I can see a big difference even if the scale doesn't always show it. Very motivational! Thanks for sharing. :)

    I love this post! Thank you so much! You do look so much better now then you did when you weighted less.
    You are such an inspiration. I am down to my last 10 to lose and I am struggling up and down. Doing a lot of research and I found that you are right, I have to eat more when I am strength training and I may end up weighting more than my goal. If I can get my butt to look like that, I won't care about the number on the scale either.
    Congratulations!!!

    I am with you sister.....who cares what that scale says? Are my clothes falling off? Are people constantly asking OMG, how are you losing that weight? Is my bra getting too big? That scale can really do a number on ya.....for sure. I mean if you are busting your *kitten* in the gym and making great food choices and then you jump on the scale and its stayed the same.....that is seriously disappointing. I am almost addicted to NOT weighing now. LOL I will have my trainer check my body fat soon. That will be a great way to measure also. :laugh:

    You look great!! Congrats! I completely agree with you on everything. I can't believe how many people don't get it when I say the same things you are saying. Your pictures are proof. Eat good quality, clean food. Eat to FUEL your body. Take care of your body and strengthen it. The rest falls into place. It isn't about a scale. It's about how you feel. It's about how you look. And you look radiant compared to your former self, my guess, because of nutrition. Body changes happen 70-80% based on what kind and how much fuel you give your body. Can't wait until I have that type of change to illustrate that this works. I'm just starting my second journey down to 140... the first one was like yours - cutting out foods and lots of cardio sessions. This one will be better! Again, congrats!
