    Thanks for sharing the pics! You truly look amazing! WTG and keep up the good work! I personally don't know any tips on the stored area improvements, I have 60-70 lbs to lose myself and have my mind set on getting the surgery for any hanging skin etc which I hope I won't have. We will see.

    You look so great, you are an inspiration to us all. I highly recommend the book Wheat Belly. I got mine on my Nook for less than ten dollars, and it was so worth it. It is written by a doctor, and tells you how wheat products are making us fat. It also tells you the scores of foods wheat is in. I have seen a huge difference since cutting out wheat and sticking to reasonable amounts of dairy. Best of luck to you in the future!

    You have had amazing success! Way to go! To answer your "tips" question...I'd hire a personal trainer. I work out at the YMCA and hired a trainer there. Much more affordable. And really, after 3 or 4 sessions you get a very good routine going for your workouts. I still see my trainer once a week because she makes me do things that I am either too embarrassed to do by myself, or just didn't think I could do at all! I personally think you could cut out the protein shakes. I lift weights 5x a week most weeks, for at least an hour, plus about 45 mins of cardio on those days and I've never had to do those shakes. Chocolate milk is way better. Keep up the great work! :)

    Oh my goodness. You should feel so proud of yourself. I agree, people would tell me you've lost weight, but I didn't believe them until I say before and after pictures recently. I feel amazing and so should you. Keep moving forward towards your ideal weight. I'm so happy for you.

    Tackling the arms...Get light weights and do lots of arm exercises with the weights. Make sure it's light though so you can tone them up than just build lots of muscle.

    Tackling the back...Lay on your belly and do superman holds or do flutter kicks for about 30 to 45 sec. You should feel it the burn in those areas.

    Hope this helps out a bunch!

    Great Job!! :)* I am at 299lbs now but I was up to 320lbs before I started I have been doing Zumba and that has helped me continue to want to exercise. I have lost most of my weight in my belly and arms that I can tell and I've only lost 20lbs. I'm going to start P90X soon I have it but finding time to work it in to my schedule is tough. I hope you get the answers you're looking for keep it up I have around 100lbs to still lose so. We will get there though.

    WELL DONE!!

    You've done great! I don't have tips for targeting the loss but I just wanted to add in that I have found I have been losing weight in certain areas first and not quite in the areas I am most self conscious. I too have a belly area I'm self conscious about and though I have lost weight in the front, I seem to be losing on the sides of my belly first (when you stand up and run your hands over your ribs, that part not the part that is over your belly button..does that make any sense, lol?!?). I wish it would be the belly fat front and center, but I'm happy with what is happening over all.

    You're doing GREAT! I work out at the gym at my school and I try to do extra sets (maybe one or two) on the machines that work the tricep/upper back area. I have found that this really has tightened up the flab on the backs of my arms. You can achieve this by doing pull ups...but I can't do them yet :(.
