Just wanted to share my progress :) I love Jillian Michaels workout DVDs and going for long walks outdoors when the weather permits. I have also transformed my enclosed front porch into a mini gym complete with a treadmill, stationary bike, rowing machine, and bowflex. If I can bring myself to ignore my stretch marks I'm hoping to be fit looking enough for a bikini this summer (fingers crossed!)

Ps. ^^ I wish I had taken before pics of my mid section at 180 lbs

    Awesome accomplishment Stephanie! Keep at it!

    I just started on my fitness goals about 2 weeks ago. What kind of routine do you use and how often?

    Thanks for sharing :)

    Thanks! Believe me I've googled the heck out of lightening the appearance of stretch marks! Most well informed sites say there isn't much you can do. I've even tried an "it works!" body wrap and I put cocoa butter on my stomach every night. I don't think it will help but I figure there's nothing wrong with having soft skin if it doesn't

    Ahhh--we all have stretch marks, even the skiniest of us! You look fantastic, hell i'd say you were bikini ready now!! Also I hear mederma is pretty effective for it--and bio oil; but i think they are pretty costly.
