    Hey chick,

    Looking forward to seeing your pics but you need to change the tags to look like [ img ] at the beginning and then [ /img ] at the end (but without the spaces in between the brackets - I had to do that so that the board wouldn't read it as code.)

    :)

    EDIT: sorry about that funny htmlspecialchars tag just then, I was trying to be better at html than i actually am haha!

    Amazing! Can you share your secrets? Was it a combo of exercise and diet or did you focus on one more than the other? You looked beautiful before, but now absolutely gorgeous.

    peekABooGirl i started with watching what i was eating . i stayed around 1200 calories a day with 4-6 glasses of water . let me tell you the more water you drink really makes a difference . i also did the full 3 months of p90x . p90x really helped me stay on track with what i ate because after that type of workout i didn't wanna "cheat" with food because i had just worked so hard to burn those calories. The last thing i can tell you what makes a difference also is after dinner i would take a 10-15 min walk . that little walk made it so i wasn't just sitting on the couch , i was moving around so my food did not just settle into my belly !!! Good luck your on a great track also if you have anymore questions feel free !!!

    it took me almost a year to loose the 50lbs .

    I did that in 110 days...but then the rate of loss seriously slowed down. Hoping I get to my goal of 180 lbs by Christmas.
