    Awesome!!! You look fantastic!
    Drives me nuts when people say they don't have time or make all sorts of excuses. Sure we all have a life. You find the time. You make changes. You get moving and now look at you girl!! OMG!!!

    Great job. I have been exactly where you are when I was your age only I had a child and it was baby weight gain. I lost 72 lbs and gained 50 of it back. Struggling now (I am almost 40). Hold on to this and yes, keep those healthy habits. It's hard to do this over and over and gets harder each time. It does feel wonderful, though. I will get there again one day myself. There are no excuses and yes, if you want it bad enough, you can do it! You are a wonderful inspiration for all young and old :) Thanks for posting.

    I love how you make no excuses and how disciplined you are especially considering your age!!! There are a ton of obese teenagers who could take a note out of your book- so many are big from childhood and just think they will be fat forever- way to go on changing your life at a young age!

    You look so good!!!
  • Well, I mean, if you're doing cheerleading and tennis and then spending a lot of time studying, and you're just busy overall it'll be a lot easier to lose weight i think personally than if you weren't busy because if you aren't busy you'll get bored and want to eat or cook or something. I think one of the reasons you were successful is because you were so busy with things that are exercise-related or are activities where you can't really be eating

    i'm thinking maybe she went out of her way ( or continued) to do those things to help lose the weight. It's easier to stick w/it when you're doing something you actually like.

    Great job on staying focused during your weight loss journey at such a young age.

    Congratulations, you look fantastic!! I really like (and needed to read) what you said about time. I have found that I have time to do what we WANT to do...if I want it bad enough.
