I love, love, love you post and thank you for sharing! You are truely a success story on so many levels! I too have some stretch marks but they do not bother me at all - I have 3 amazing children to show for it. I start at the gym tomorrow and am looking forward to the work I will put in to transform my body. I went from a size 16 to a size 4 and am looking forward to taking my health/fitness to a whole new level.

That's amazing! I gained quite a bit with my pregnancy, but then let myself stay there. I used my son as an excuse to not change my lifestyle. Fast forward 2 years, I'm finally down 30 lbs! I have 15 lbs to go before I'm back to pre-baby weight, but I have always felt that I would never have the same physic as before. Your pictures show me that it's possible. Baby hips don't last! I embrace my stretch marks, reminds me of my pregnancy and how much I loved it. Everything else will shrink and tighten up again, I see that now! Thank you for sharing, you are an amazing woman to stick with it as you have. God bless!

Thank you for sharing it with us all.

You look fantastic and I'm glad you can see yourself the way your husband does. I am working on that myself, right now. You are an inspiration!

Best wishes to you as you continue getting stronger and faster!

Wow! Congratulations! You look fantastic and it sounds like you feel that way too! I have very similar stats (and a similar history with food/ww) so it's great to hear a story like yours. Keep up the great work. Good job loving yourself!

I know you sometimes "grrrr" at being told this, but - your story really IS a wonderfully supportive thing and you really ARE inspiring! I know it took balls to post those before pictures - you are amazing. This is good motivation for me to keep at it. You worked HARD, you've earned your skinny ***** status!

TL;DR - I was really fat, lazy, and weak. Now I'm thin, active, and strong. It's awesome.

My god I love you.

You are AMAZING--I have known it since we first became friends, but seeing your change in confidence is beautiful to behold (AS YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL... TO HOLD). Thank you for sharing this, especially with so many people that need to see what can be accomplished from treating a body with respect, not abuse.

Also, more bikini pics plz.
