    Wow! what an amazing job. I weigh more than you to start with but am currently close to where you started with a similar goal weight. I am also 5'6" and not to far off from your age so your post was very inspirational for me. Thanks for sharing!

    I also appreciate that you shared you did this slowly. I feel impatient sometimes with this journey, but I also worry about the end result if I lose weight to fast. My doctor did tell me 3 years was pretty common with the goal I had set start weight of 257 lbs and a goal weight of 150ish? Thanks again :)

    Thanks for the inspiration. I'm around your age and height, and it's wonderful to see someone who has reached what my goal is.

    Aww thank you!

    I can't wait to get back to my exercises (zumba, weights...). I had a surgery done and still have 2 weeks of forced rest... :(
    A lot of people inboxed me if I use any body lotion. I use daily the Amazing Grace firming lotion by Philosophy. I think it helps and smells really good!
    Have a great day!

    Hi,

    I was cleaning my computer today and saw those pictures of 3 years ago... I was shocked because I hadn't realized how much my body and face changed!!!

    I took the slow journey path. I was afraid of losing too fast and ending up with a lot of extra skin and I wanted to make a change on my eating and exercising habits for good.

    After doing crazy and miraculous diets throughout my life (and after few weeks regaining back and more) it was my time for a forever change! (Don't worry this is a short topic! lol) :laugh:

    * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
    Start weight: 210 (ish) (size more than 16 I guess... I was wearing yoga pants only)
    Current weight: 148 (size 6)
    Goal weight: 140
    I am 5'6 and 35 years old

    I started my journey at 220lbs and have lost 13.2 pounds in a lil over a month. You are right where I hope to be one day! You look AMAZING!! Great job and congrats to you!!!
