Such an inspiration! You're beautiful and have a rockin' bod! I have got to start lifting, lol.
Ps. Love your style. That pink with the black and white bed set is gorgeous. :-)0 -
WOW, this is so damn awesome. Way to go girl. I hope I can look like you!!!!!
I have been really depressed lately myself. I don't know nor understand how I could let myself get so fat and gross. I have lost 39 pounds and even though that may be impressive to some...I am still fat. I still hate myself in the mirror.
I do not have any before pics but maybe today I shall take some....since I still have many more pounds to loose.
Thanks for posting this and your story! Keep being Awesome!0 -
You're a beautiful woman. Never forget it.0

You look beautiful (such a pretty face)... AWESOME job on the weight loss and working out. You inspire me.0

Sweetie, first of all congrats on losing 60+ lbs - anyone who has done it will know just how difficult it is sometimes. I also suffer from low self-esteem issues from my ex-husband, and I am just now starting to get it back.
I too have lost around 60 lbs (actually I lost 62 lbs but gained back 10 lbs from an anti-depressant). What has really halped me with my self-esteem is after I hit my goal weight I got a whole new hairstyle including dye. If you go through my profile, you will see the big change which happened on Saturday. It has done wonders for my self-esteem.
You are a very beautiful woman, but I can so relate to the depression issues. Keep doing what you are doing - you will go far. Look how far you have come - be proud0 -
You look amazing! Thank you for the inspiration!
We have similar journey. I started around 220 as well, and I am not hovering right around the lower 160's, which leaves me frustrated to no end, until I remember how far I have come. Keep it up!0 -
You are beautiful! It is funny how the new lifestyle gets in our blood. I too started the couch to 5k, as a gal who has never-ever ran in her life, hardly walked. My intent was not to run a 5k, but just step up the game on the trails. After 2 weeks into it I was addicted. Each week I hear the new challenge and my response is, "oh, hell, no", but each week I conquer it. Can't wait for my first 5k event.
Again, you are a beautiful woman. Congratulations0 -

Hunny, you look absolutely amazing! I am SO proud of you!0

You look great! A beautiful and thin woman that I am sure many people envy. Don't feel guilt or shame for the past. The past is gone and right now you are kicking butt. A lot of us (me too) let ourselves go when we had kids. It was a lot to adjust to being a mom, changing hormones, and the change in appetite too.
I like how you said you are looking for slow progress. I am a little worried about me. I just started this and at first I decided weight loss would not take over my life. I would make it fit but not neglect anything else. Now I feel it sort of taking over my life and even though I enjoy it I know I have to tend to other things as well. And like you said, I could wind up burning out. very good advice. Thanks for posting!0 -
Very inspirational! You are totally BA!!! Glad to have you as a friend.0
-
Doing great chickie! You should be PROUD!0

Ummmmm WOW You look amazing! And I seriously, seriously, seriously want your quads! (;
Seriously. I can see the ridge through your jeans! Do you know how awesome that is? I can't even see mine on bare skin.
THIS is the 1st thing I noticed WOW!!!! I too am in your same boat. I struggle with still being the fat girl everyday. I lost weight fast last year. 45lbs in 5 months and 20lns crept back on the rest of the year. I am SO mad at myself for gaining those lbs back and this time it is not as easy as it was. You are doing so good and you look amazing. For me this is all mental. I look at all these skinny girls and am jealous and when all reality I am the same size. Blah this is hard lol0 -
You are amazing and you look amazing, too. Your story is very inspiring. I was the same way about MFP at first, but I would not give up any of the friends I have made here. Having a support system of people dealing with the same things is one of the best tools we can have0

Wow is all I can say!0

You look AMAZING Very inspirational!!!0

You look fantastic, and your gorgeous!!0

I think you look awesome. You should be super proud of yourself and your amazing results. Not to mention you are an excelent ro-model for your kids (especially your daughter). Just always think if a friend of your told you they were feeling how u felt and had the success that you have had what would you tell them? Probably how proud you are and how amazing they are. You should be no different to yourself as you would a dear friend.0
-
Wow, you should be very proud. You look fantastic. Seriously.0
-
I've never read through an entire "success story" til I read through yours. You look fantastic, but even more than looking fantastic, it seems from your post that you're that way inside as well as outside! I know that self-esteem really comes from inside, so I'm not sure how much the accolades help, but for what it's worth, I think you have a lot to feel good about! Keep going strong. )0
-
You have done a fantastic job and your muscles are NOT manly, you are beautiful.0
-
You look amazing! Very nice muscles! Nice feminine muscles0
-
I really needed to read this today. Thank you so much for being so candid. Your story is a real motivation to me and I can't thank you enough for writing it. You look terrific, but most importantly your health is impressive and makes me know what I also need to do now and seeing what you've done is such an encouragement. Keep going forward with what you're doing. You look beautiful.
