    Absolutely great post, story and photos! Fabulous! Thank you for sharing your story. I am currently struggling on WW myself so this was particularly interesting for me to read.

    Would you be willing to post a typical day's menu for you during "weight loss" phase?

    I'm late to the party, but what a story! Thank you so much for sharing. You look FANTASTIC! Very inspiring. I'm about where you were when you lost the weight, but didn't feel happy about the your appearance in the mirror. I hit goal weight, but I haven't been able to strength train due to some injuries. Doing physical therapy, so hopefully I will be able to have a great success story like yours soon! GREAT JOB!!!

    You are fantastic. An absolute inspiration. I was where you were at the start, and I too did WW and it screwed up my metabolism and view of food. I'm now combining MFP with cardio and strength, eating the right foods not what a book tells me point wise and I'm enjoy every second of it. I hope one day I will look as fantastic as you and I am going to give it my best shot! xxx

    Just saw this (it would have been impossible not to!) via that awful "Is it worth it?" thread & I am SO glad.

    SO inspiring! You look fantastic! My starting weight and goal weight are similar to yours- about a 20lb difference so I am now more motivated knowing it can be done so well :)

    I was really fat, lazy, and weak. Now I'm thin, active, and strong. It's awesome.

    You ARE awesome!

    TL;DR - I was really fat, lazy, and weak. Now I'm thin, active, and strong. It's awesome.

    And, you are awesome. Funny. Hot. Talented.

    I love you and hate you at the same time.

    What an inspiring story! I loved how you said you'd never again abuse your body. You are strong, beautiful and you are right when you said those stretch marks are a reminder of what you were and what you'll never be again. You not only changed your self but have made this a life long journey, there's no end....it's a life long change!

    Thank you for your story!!!
