    Thank you to everyone for the encouragement! I know I always come to these boards when I need extra motivation. It's been particularly rough lately since I can't run right now. I wish I was actually 20 again - then I could have started this running business at a point when putting my foot down the wrong way wouldn't cause back pain! :).

    Thanks so much for this post - its just what I needed today - I'm stuck, the scales aren't shifting despite working out hard 6 days a week - its so frustrating. Looking at what you're saying I'm going to grit my teeth and try and up the calories - again and see what happens :-) You look so good :-D

    Great job! I TOTALLY hear you with the "spanx so tight if I bent over they would roll down"! The best is when you're in spanx at a fancy dinner and they just decide to roll down on their own while you're sitting at the table. Ha! Awesome to see that you don't need them anymore! I have been a size 14 for atleast 5 years, so it is SO inspiring to see that someone can actually change. Keep it up! :)

    That is fantastic. I am trying to get there as well. I have been a size 12-14 for the past several years. I used to be about an 6-8 and thought I was "FAT". I have been training for a half marathon and run a slow 5k at 37 minutes. Congrats. What an inspiration.

    Great job and very inspiring! Same height and starting weight here, but I am still a work in progress, and about 10 years older. I am learning to appreciate the what running and lifting are doing, shape-wise, when the scale is moving slowly.

    I started almost exactly a year ago too (well, started with INTENTION, I was on MFP in January of 2012.) I've lost just about 30lbs too. I'm 5'7" at 175ish and started at 205. i LOVE seeing someone who started this journey when I did with similar weight loss results. Here's to the next year and on!

    Awesome to hear that you have not pushed so hard to lose everything fast and have just done it comfortably for you. I admire that you have kept going and seem to have the attitude that it is ok right where you're at and you'll keep moving towards your goal. Good luck on the last few pounds. My journey is also slow, but will keep pluggin away.
