    This is exactly what I needed to read today. Thanks for the inspiration to get started on Strength training. I have been stuck for months now and the scale is not been my friend. No scale no more!!

    Thanks :)

    Umm, half a lb a week is NOT BAD AT ALL. Come on now. Be happy with what you did! You must care somewhat if you're posting to motivation and support. Even being on MFP, you must care. Just my opinion.
    I think you have completely missed the point of this thread. She's no posting to motivate herself, she's posting to motivate others.

    looks to me like you are just trying to show your *kitten* off..

    Looks to me like you have jealousy issues. Seriously. Between this post and your previous one, it's evident that you were never taught that if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all.

    She's making a point that you should not just rely on the scale to measure progress. She's showing what a difference training can make, even at the same weight. She's not going to be able to make the same point by posing in a burqa.

    As usual Lorina, you look great :flowerforyou: Haters gonna hate.

    Let me just say Miss LorinaLynn was my very first inspiration on here who convinced me it was OKAY to eat and not starve myself into skinny-fatness. She's sort of a big deal around here :bigsmile: I don't know where some people get off putting her down because she's trying to MOTIVATE people to get healthy. REALLY??? Go pound salt :laugh:

    Yeah, she is awesome, you are totally right!! She has reached all of her goals AND doesn't have to starve herself and deprive herself of treats to do it. What an inspiration!! I'll bet with this lifestyle change she has instituted and clearly been on for such a long time, she will have no problem maintaining her goals for the rest of her life.

    LorinaLynn, you look fabulous!! Definitely a superstar!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    I agree!! She looks absolutely phenomenal! Her hard work and dedication has really paid off. So as far as I'm concerned she should post as many pictures of herself as she wants! I am always in awe of her pictures, what she has accomplished is so amazing. I mean my husband literally pushed me outta the way to look at her pictures if that tells you anything :laugh: He said "You should do whatever she did!!" I still have a long way to go though and doubt I will ever look that good but I'm going to try!

  • A great way to share your success! I love seeing the "older" you; as you can see you have learned the secret to controlling how you look. You are more tone and fit now than you were then!

    Thanks for the insight!!! :-)
