    Almost 30 lbs down in 4.5 months. I was never huge, but during our move to germany I somehow packed on another 15 lbs and was 35 lbs heavier than I was when I got married. (Put me at 175). So when my husband deployed I decided to do something about it. I cleaned up my diet, started exercising regularly, and am down from a size 12 to a size 6. I'm now 147 lbs (my eventual goal is to get into the 130's, but its become more about toning instead of the number on the scale now.)

    finally got the picture figured out :D

      You look fantastic! This is very motivating, I am a few pounds under your starting weight with the same pants size and a similar body type. I hope I look as good as you do when I get to that weight!

      You look awesome! I hope to be able to have a before and after picture one day. Right now I'm 160.8 lbs, my goal right now is set at 150 but I'll lower it once I get to that goal, then so on. My size right now is 12/14, I would love to be a size 6 myself. This is proof that it can happen!
