    Again, thanks for all of the awesome words of encouragement! It has taken me roughly a year. I realize that is pretty fast. I had a baby August 5, 2012, and I breastfed, so the first 20-25 lbs. or so flew right off. The before picture is pretty accurate in terms of my weight before I got pregnant. I am working at lowering my body fat, but building muscle, so I'm not sure what that will mean for my weight. If losing fat but gaining muscle keeps me at this weight, I'm fine with that, but my body fat% is still quite high (I only started lifting about a month ago), so I suspect I will lose another 10 lbs.

    You are an inspiration, I am 5'7 and started at 209, I am currently at 192. I wasnt sure if I wanted to go down as low as 150 lbs, but you look awesome. So I think I have now reset my weight loss goal to 150 lbs. Thanks for the motivation.

    Congratulations, you really turned your health around. I want that....I want it bad and I am more inclined to believe it's possible because of your success and your having shared photos.

    I've never looked at this forum before, and seeing some other threads thought, "oh, maybe I could do share photos if I didn't show my face." And then here comes your thread and photos, and I am SO SO glad you showed us your whole self. You are a beautiful woman, and you looked beautiful when heavy, too, but the difference in your smile tells it all. I have made that (when heavy) "oh God, i'm having my picture taken" smile umpteen times. There's nothing like your (now photo) with the "cool - I have nothing to hide, here I am world" smile.

    That's the best success story I could possibly ask for. It's odd that advertising has us programmed to think of "before" and "after" photos because they should be called "headed to a premature ending" and "starting new!"

    ROCK ON! And thank you for sharing.

    Oh man. I really needed to see this. I'm the same height, and I'm currently stuck at about 212. I've been wanting to see what 150lbs would look like. Amazing job!

    I don't have pictures of me at my highest weight (235 lbs.), but here is the difference that 60 lbs. can make! I'm 5'7".

    Beloved Friend, You inspire me so much! My health does not permit me to exercise the way you do, or be as active as you but I desire the same results by eating healthy and eating less calories. Thank You for sharing these pictures, and thank you for keeping me motivated with your encouraging words.
