    Congrats, you look fantastic!

    Also, those jeans in the last pic are def not too snug. When people get overweight they generally get really used to wearing baggy oversized clothing.

    Form fitting jeans looks great when you look great! Rock 'em!

    Omg I almost cried reading your post for years I have been struggling with my weight and just recently through tragic events I feel like I am now able to actually focus on getting healthy. This morning I weighed in at 245 the most I have ever weighed nd more then I weighed at the birth of both my children (which I used as an excuse for being overweight for years) I really have no reason except I have bad habits and didn't care enough to change them. I always had excuses and really couldn't find the time to workout. Butt now there is no more excuses if you and so many other women can do it so can I. Thank you for your inspiration today I am glad to have read your story the first day I start mine. Good luck with the rest of your goal but for what it's worth u already look amazing.

    Wow! Thanks for all the support & love :blushing:

    And for all of you just starting out and similar to where I was... trust me, I *know* how overwhelming it all is. And a bit scary. But you can do it. You really really can! Biggest advice (based on my September) ...

    Don't beat yourself up when you stumble. This isn't a sprint. It's not even a marathon. A little mistake here or there isn't going to matter. If you slide for a week or three, no big deal! You aren't a failure... you just had a bad week or three. You only fail if you don't get back to it, so get back to it! Nobody (but you) will ever say "wow! you look great! if only you hadn't gained those 8 lbs back before you lost another 40!"
