    Girl, you're a full success!!!

    Can you share more about how you eat now, exercise, and other things you've learned to make it easier along the way?

    Excellent Job!! Keep it up. I'm with you as well, about another 20 to go on my own transformation. I know exactly how good your feeling! Keep that head high and keep it going.

    Sure! I don't eat too many proceesed foods, but I certainly have days when I do. I have issues with my back which I re-injured several months back and have not been doing any exercise other then walking since that time. I typically walk a few miles a day, but it's not walking to exercise, it's just walking to get somewhere as I don't have a car here in London. I don't have any set rules for myself because I think that is what caused issues for me in the past. I try to eat a balanced diet, low sodium, fresh fruits and vegetables and usually just fish or poultry. I also try not to beat myself up too badly when I have an off day. I think what works for some may not work for others so it's important to find and do the things you think are maintainable long term.

    a couple of things.. fist off you look great. your hard work really shows.. my story is similar to yours (down 90lbs as of this AM!)

    Second you ARE a success. every time you go to the gym. Every weight you lift. every minute of cardio you do, and every good eating decision you make proves it. Hitting a number on the scale is just a stepping stone. great work. give your self the credit, there is no accident or luck that you have achieved what you have.

    As a (hopefully) humorous aside... in your before picture did you intentionally stand next to a picture of an elephant? :)
