    Congratulations on attaining your goal and, having achieved it, apparently finding it all you wanted it to be.

    And congratulations to your photographer friend. Because while I am sure you're the very perfect subject - a model model as it were - your fruity new profile pic is a doosie.

    Well done

    What a lovely thing to say, thank you. I'm a wannabe photographer (luck more than judgement, I admit), so tinkered around with a tripod and a camera in my living room yesterday morning! It's only because my friends are too shy to model for me ;)

    Aw, thank you. This in particular means a lot - something that kicked me into doing something about my size was the fact that I was losing my hair (sensitivity to testosterone as a result of PCOS). So I thought "I could be fat and balding. Ooooor I could just be balding".

    I'm by no means bald. But my hair is nowhere near what it used to be (27 with a receding hairline...yeah!). So thank you. That really cheered me up.

    Thank you again. I've noticed a few comments about looking younger; that's always comforting because I thought losing weight off my face would age me! I love getting ID'd in Asda when buying wine now... ;)
  • Nice job. I keep wondering what my body will look like when I lose, how much loose skin I'll have... Your arms look awesome! and tummy too! I hope I can have similar effects although I am heavier than you. Anyhow, great job!

    Hi there!

    That was one of my worries too - I didn't want to get to goal and STILL hate my body because of excess skin. So I started going to kettlebells classes, as well as plenty of cardio, and I'm lucky enough to not have that much excess skin. My upper stomach is fine - but my lower stomach does have crepey skin. I'm kind of fond of it - reminds me of what used to be.

    All the best!

    Do you mind sharing what your routine was/is. I am an exercise hater but been pushing through, what exercise did you start with that kept you motivated and what did you do to lose the stomach area?
