You look great! I started out where you started out, I'm currently 170 and stuck , got any advice?

Keep going. lol No but seriously- change up your routine, do a different workout if your working out, or up your calories a little. By the pictures I can tell you IT WORKS. No matter what don't give up!

How super cute are you now??? So great! You are now all about your "eyes" instead of your "size".

Aw Thanks!!! :bigsmile:

You look FABULOUS!!! Congratulations on all of your successes. I hope that your pictures are a glimpse into my own future. I am starting at a much higher weight than you, but I'm only an inch taller than you and I'm hoping to get down to about 135.

They are! As long as you stick with it and beleive you can! :flowerforyou:

You look great! Even your eyes look brighter.
I'm 5'5" and my highest is 204#. I started working out but until I joined this site I didn't keep track of my calories. Once I put the 2 together it worked! So basic, can't believe it took me so long.

My original goal was 150# and I didn't really believe it would happen. After 10# I changed my goal to 135, my high school weight. Now I'm thinking 130...your pics show how good I could look! Thanks for the inspiration!

Thanks so much! I did the same thing! My goal was 150 and I didn't even think I'd get there! So when I did- I lowered it to 130 and made it! You can too!!

Thank you all so much for the encouraging words! There are times even now when I don't feel like I look good. I need to work on my mental diet now because mentally I still feel big. :laugh: When I look in the mirror and pictures I see how far I've come though so that's a step in the right direction! :laugh:

Your telling my story-was never slinder and never fat but comfortable at a size 8 until I got preggers-then highest weight 225. Lost weight on phermine (sp) by doc but moved away so couldn't take it anymore-got to 175 then ballooned to 220 again. No more-tired of it--i'm so glad to see a light at the end of the tunnel and you show that i can do it! Thank you so much for your story. I didn't even notice the braces until the upclose pic-you look wonderful!

Thanks! Right now the braces are just on the bottom but this weekend I get the top ones on! I'm excited but nervous. Hey they prevent me from eating too much bad food. :laugh:

You are an inspiration!! Just goes to show if you want something bad enough it is achievable. Thanks for being a huge motivator for me and so many other MFP. :flowerforyou:
