    Wow!!!! I have worked out for over 17 years and stayed in the 135-145 range during that time. I always wondered what I would look like if I got under 130. You are inspiring, thanks for sharing. I've got to get my eating under control. You have inspired me to lose my pudgy suit too.

    Thank you for posting this. I've seen you on the boards also, and envied your amazing figure. I feel like I look like your before pic. I am intimidated of weight training, but your story might have just pushed me to think about it. Sent you a friend request, hope you don't mind!

    You do look fabulous! The kind of body I have always wanted! I have worked out with cardio & weights most of my life but my sugar addiction has kept me from looking like you do now!! You just confirmed my need for nutrition counsel and sugar addiction therapy!! I will continue to work out as long as I possibly can and look forward to seeing the definition apper after clean eating! best wishes in your new life, because it IS a new life!

    Steph!! Be sure to post your blog site! I'd love to follow! You are such an inspiration! As most others commenting, I too have been a gym rat for about 18 years, but never got that ripped look. I have started watching calories recently and am SOOO hoping for great results. I have given up sweets and fried foods, and adding more cardio. Thanks again for the inspiration.
