      Use [ img ] url [/ img] w/o spaces

      Between the two img links should be the url of your photo with NO spaces. This is how it will look when you do it right.

      I think it's so cool how certain events can motivate you. When I had my prom I lost about 10 pounds because I wanted to look fabulous. You sure look absolutely stunning in that wedding dress, a real beautiful bride! Congrats on the hard work! You can be proud of yourself.

      You look absolutely amazing! Congrats! What is your goal weight? What are you doing to lose the weight?

      My goal weight right now is 160 and a BMI of 24. To lose the weight, I exercise (1 hour zumba twice per week and hip hop twice per week), sometimes elliptical on the off days. Trying to get in some pilates or something for toning now. I was really limiting calories but I found that I just killed my metabolism. The weight stayed on and I just got super sleepy and cold all the time at 1200, upped to 1800-2000 now and creating my calorie deficit through exercise and I'm feeling a lot better. The weight is coming off SUPER slowly. I had hoped to be another 20 lbs down before summer, but I think my metabolism is resetting and I'm building muscle.
      I try to eat as clean as possible but I have to travel for a living so I do eat out a lot, still I avoid microwavable meals and pre-packaged frozen things. I also can't have dairy, so that's a big help. I'm also drinking my water, and trying to stay happy and honestly not think about the weight loss. If I think about it, I obsess about it, and it feels like the weight comes off slower and I drive myself crazy. I just kind of made a lifestyle change, and then sit around and wait to reap the benefits.
      I needed a boost though when I posted this, because when you start out with SO MUCH weight to lose, it's easy to get discouraged when you think about the 50 lbs remaining. I feel like after losing 105 I should be at my goal weight, but I'm not. But it's okay, because the amount of dedication it takes to say "I am never going back to those habits" changes you as a person. You would be amazed at the difference in me. I'm organized, I stopped for the most part being chronically late to everything, I'm not a complete slob anymore, and I believe that things are possible that I was afraid of before, all because I just want to take care of myself. It touches your whole life.
      Thanks for the encouragement!
