I am 5'5 . The picture on the LEFT I was 119 lbs, and on the right is current and I am 130 lbs my heaviest. Personally I feel a big difference and am stronger than I have been. I stopped weighing myself and have been going by how I look and feel. Numbers can be discouraging!!

You look amazing. I also stopped weighing myself. I started at 145, and after about a year and a half I got down to 136. (My lightest weight ever in my adult life) Did Insanity, and was right back up to 145. But when I look at pics, there is a big difference between 145 out of shape and 145 healthy and happy! Keep it up. Don't let the scale get you down. I wish I could throw mine away; I just don't have the heart to do it!0

Well, you could get some scales that measure bodyfat...
But frankly with a body like that you might as well just measure the drool dripping from the mouths of the blokes staring :P.0 -
What a great example!0

It may just be the cuter outfit you're wearing on the left, but I personally think you look way hotter in the before pic. Don't get too scrawny, or you'll start to lose those fantastic curves!0

You look great! Don't worry about the # on the scale, you definitely gained muscle which weighs more. Keep on doing what you're doing!0

Weight doesnt matter when you look like this.0 -

Its true about weight. If you get really in tune with your body and eating, you don't need the scale to tell you if you have lost or gained weight. I only weigh myself once a month just to track it in my fit pal, but I let how my clothes feel tell me. Weighing yourself every day can cause a lot of anxiety.
In the last 18 months, I have lost about 25 pounds, but for the first 6 months, I only lost 5 pounds, but I went down 2 sizes. Muscles and toning up will not make the scale go down, but you definitely look and feel better. Once I had more muscle, the weight has know slowly started coming down. Its better for your metabolism, imo.
Thanks for posting your pics and the reminder, its not all about weight.0
