    Don't go too far. You look lovely in your "before". Overweight, for sure, but nowhere near "obese". Since I read in your profile that your goal is to look "anorexic skinny" it seems that congratulations are in order - you do.
    First thing I thought from the full-body-after pic was "Wow, she has a huge head!" Maybe it's the angle you took the picture at, that can be a bit awkward in the mirror - but maybe it is that your figure as such is nice but doesn't correspond to your height and proportions...
    And I don't mean this in a mean way, but in a concerned way. Your BMI is currently 19.6, I checked. Below 19 is considered underweight, still you claim you want to lose 1-2 more sizes. Besides, honey, you say you yoyo. First thing to stop that would be to stop forcing the yoyo down as far as it will go.
    You are thin, you are pretty, once you quit dieting so forcefully you hair won't fall out anymore. Three issues solved with one change. And start learning to love the big girl you were without becoming her again. Try and see her as a good old friend who was unhappy and compensated by eating.

    Food for thought: Maybe if you (as her friend) had loved her more she wouldn't have needed to binge so much...

    So maybe new you and old you can become friends and at one point merge emotionally?! I hope they will and wish you all the best for that! (Oh, and try not to give those two some more friends with balloony boobs and pouty lips!)

    This was unnecessary.

    Yep, but look 7 pages of high 5's and pats on the back, just proves how brain dead the majority of the mfp population is.

    ^^^So true^^^ Makes me sad to see the kudos and not the realization that her 'eating style' is unhealthy.

    Unfortunately this is the norm for the majority of MFP. It's always "OMG YOU LOOK GREAT!" or "OMG EVERYONE IS SO MEAN!" without any real thought given to it.

    I'm very concerned that you want to lose another 25 pounds. You're 5'7 and you weight 125 pounds, which is probably the lowest end of your healthy BMI. Weighing 100 pounds is for girls far shorter than you. You are already willowy and lovely. Please don't force your weight down another 25 pounds.

    I look at your food journal and your goals and I see someone who is suffering. I think you need to talk to someone in real life about what you're going through and what your goals are. Please take care of yourself and be kind to yourself.

    That's great that you were able to do that-- but now it's time to take care of your body! As others have said, you haven't learned to eat healthy, and that can still catch up with you and give you physical problems. Do you want to be the skinny girl that has a heart attack?

    Stop eating out altogether for a while, and learn how to cook simple and healthy meals. Use unprocessed foods-- lots of foods in their whole form. You don't need to lose more weight, so you don't have to be stingy with the calories. You will be amazed how much better you feel-- drink lots of water and eat good food!

    Yeah, I thought I would be blasted for questioning her story, but it appears I'm not the only not buying it. I mean, no offense to OP if she's telling the truth, but I don't know about this one. *kanye shrug*

    I'd echo these sentiments, it's is worrying how many people miss an eating disorder. My sister is 5'7 126 pounds, very very slender and we'd all become seriously concerned if she started saying she wanted to drop another dress size or two!

    A coworker lost 150 lbs due to chemotherapy and had so many people congratulating him and telling him he looked great. It was painful to watch.

    Kind of reminds me of this.

    I didn't read every single response, but how exactly did she lose so much weight so fast? Even on 1200 calorie diet, that's a lot.

    I think she looked prettier before actually. If she was eating right and became HEALTHY then congrats. If you have an eating disorder and want praise from me think again. I can not encourage that behavior.

    why wouldn't they? MFP people aren't cynical ( apart form the forum dwellers) and the trust element we have in each other as a community would lead us to believe honesty in the progress people have made and choose to share to inspire others.

    My first instinct is that this person has made a HUGE lifestyle change for the better...perhaps the OP should be given the benefit of the doubt? I have lost 85 lbs in just under a year on MFP and I eat ' junk' food, too.
