Finally Made It!

Wonderful the difference 45 lbs makes. Such a beautiful transformation. Have a lovely time wearing that 2 piece. Your dress really gorgeous and you too wearing it.

...gulp...you are so teeny-tiny. Not a bobblehead (what mean friends you have!)...but model-thin for sure. Congratulations on your success and you look gorgeous! Obviously, your 50's are going to be an amazing decade...you look very young.

p.s....."GO OILERS!!" ...(sorry...couldn't resist...I'm Canadian and lived in the Edmonton area for 16 years before moving to the US almost 15 years ago. We had season tickets when our kids were babies during the "Gretzky years!") My siblings and parents live in Red Deer and Edmonton... fact I just returned to NY a week ago from Alberta! The countryside there is so beautiful right now!

Have a wonderful 50th...the best is yet to come!

You look amazing. WTG

well done and congrats on reaching your goal :-)

wow you look awesome!! By the way, I hide partly behind people to kind of make myself look half as big lol.. never works but well you know lol :laugh:

Fabulous!

Well done and you look fabulous.

You look Awesome! And anyone who sees you will know it, so if they don't say anything - well sometimes more is said in silence than in words! Great Job!

Well - 9 months later and I've reached my goal. It's been an interesting journey. Friends calling me too skinny and telling me I look like a bobble head! Posted my milestone on my MFP and only 2 of my friends noticed and one I've known for 26 years :ohwell: WHATEVER! I've lost about 45 lbs since last October - 37 of those since joining MFP in November 2011. From a size 14 to a size 2 today! My goal was to be able to purchase my first 2 piece by the time I'm 50. I purchased it in August - 10 months ahead of schedule. Thanks to everyone who posted useful information to help me get here. Maintenance here I come!

Before/After pic - funny how I thought my arm would hide my tummy :laugh:

You look great congratulation.

You look amazing!

You look amazing!!! I just started my journey this week, so I'm totally looking forward to seeing those kind of results on myself

I made the decision to do this now, even if my family won't take the initiative themselves yet . I started walking on the treadmill a couple days this week, and eating smaller, healthier portions as well. I'm already seeing some minor results (put on a pair of pants this morning with minimal wiggling that last week or so I practically had to shove myself into. Ah, progress )

Amazing results and transformation! You look wonderful! Congrats to you!

Good Job! I like the attempt to cover with the arm, I used to do that a lot subconsciously when taking pictures.

Congratulations. You look fantastic.

You look great :-)
