    Thank you so much for sharing your story. I am also 5'4", and at my heaviest I was 145 lbs. When I look at the picture of you in the bikini (at your bigger size), looking a little self-conscious, it reminds me of myself. That is how I looked and felt when I went to the beach these past couple years. Not too fat to wear a bikini, but definitely not loving how I looked. I also used diet pills in the past and did get down to 115 lbs and was feeling great, but then I gained it back once ephedra-containing products were pulled from the shelves. I am now 37 years old and 127 lbs, which isn't bad, but for 5'4" it is too much weight and I hate having to suck it in. I am so inspired with your story. You look great and all your hard work has payed off. I too hope that I can become one of "those girls" again, but doing it the healthy way, through diet and exercise. You rock!

    Sooo good. Also, you SHOULD tell her, because she would feel more than honored/flattered I'm sure. And why not boost her ego a little as well. You look amazing! Great job! And I can agree with so much of this. Fantastic. [=

    This is the best post I have read on here...It has totally changed my mindset....I thought you looked great before and would kill to be like you were then but wow your body now totally rocks!! I can honestly say that you are now my inspiration and I would definitely tell that girl she was yours :) I am wondering about how you achieved it, by that I mean what type of foods were your staples etc so I am gonna send you a FR and hope to get some ideas from you if you dont mind...I know I have a long way to go but I know now that it can be done and that slow and steady is the right way to go :D

    Great story! You are absolutely right that it is not a diet. You have to make changes that you can live with for the rest of your life or it just won't work.

    Thanks for the inspiration! It was exactly what I needed!!! My story is somewhat like yours, but I have been stuck at the 128-135 range for the past few months. I've been at a stand still and just need the extra push to get back on track to eat clean so I can hit my goal weight of 115-120. I going to look into doing more classes to challenge myself to get there!

    Fantastic job!

    And I think you should tell "that girl" that she was your inspiration. I am certain it will make her day and give her the motivation to push harder.

    I too want to be one of "those" girls and hopefully this time around I'll become one and continue to be one. Your words really inspired me.
