    Wow! What a response!

    The first photo was taken when I was 13 when I hit my highest weight ever. I started a vegetarian diet and lost about 40 pounds and over the years and I lost more weight by watching what I ate. Last May when I was 23 years old and I weighed 140 pounds and this is when I really started to get serious about my health.

    I eat 1200 calories a day eating oatmeal, fruits, lots of veggies, and lean protein once in awhile (but an occasional cookie helps keep my sanity). I started running and working out at home with Jillian Michael's DVDs. By the end of the summer I was 120 pounds.

    I have since amped up my weight training with Jackie Warner DVDs and my body responds really well to it. I usually work out in the morning before I go to work and if I have time I'll either go for a run later that night or do a quick DVD workout. All of my weight loss has been WITHOUT A GYM!

    Thank you everyone for your kind words!

    Oh, and I'm 5 feet tall.

    Ok, you are my new hero. My starting weight was 200. My goal weight is 118. I've been wondering if I can, if I should, how I will look at 118 as a woman instead of a girl...and now I know. My goal is perfect. Thanks for the inspiration and HUGE KUDOS on your amazing success!!!
