    Final:

    Hopefully when I hit 163 I can buy smaller pants! I've lost 12 pounds total since joining mfp but I'm still in the same size pants and it's kind of frustrating. My ultimate goal (once I hit 130ish) is to have a sexy photo shoot so I can have some hot' pics of myself to remind me of my success!

    I was 127 about a year ago and LOVED it! (I'm short, so even the smallest add of weight really shows). I"ll be so happy to get back in the 120s again
