    I can hardly type I am so blown away by your story and amazing transformation. Wow! You totally need to send your story into a major fitness or even a contemporary magazine like People. Truly a fantastic story and you look beautiful, happy and most importantly healthy.

    Cute shoes in that last pic too :smile:

    Thank you!! I'm actually putting together a story similar to this one but shorter for my gym...and my trainer is going to give me some free training for my testimonial because she's so proud!

    You are amazing! Skin looks like? Elaborate please?

    Hahaha, I think you're the first person to ask me! Stretch marks for sure...I could probably pass for having had a baby. BUT, no lose skin to really speak of. I definitely have areas that need more toning (my arms, belly, and inner thighs) but it's nothing that I need surgery to fix. I am fully confident that within the next year with lots of strength training I can look really good. I think that I definitely have being young on my side, and the fact that I was only overweight for probably 5ish years.

    Holy cow! Your pictures really made my jaw drop!!! You look AMAZING!!!! Such an inspiration.

    I am concerned about excess skin when I'm at my goal -- is this something you're dealing with?
    You look FANTASTIC!!!!!

    ^^This is one of my concerns as well! I have about 100-110 pounds I'd like to lose, but im scared to at the same time because I'm disgusted at the thought of extra skin flying everywhere!

    Celiac? When I got my diagnosis I was mad, and now I think it is one of the best things that happened to me. It forced me to look at what I was eating, and then it changed!

    You look fantastic and mega congrats to you!

    I'm not a Celiac but I do have an intolerance to gluten...does that make sense? Haha. Also soy and a billion other things. This year has been mega hard food-wise. I'm getting used to it all though, and I feel SO much better. :)

    Yup, my sister's are just gluten intolerant, I get sick if someone uses flour in my kitchen while I'm in it though. I just found out I was sensitive to soy too! Also dairy, which is apparently really common among the gluten intolerant people because of the damage done to the GI tract from gluten consumption. Isn't it AMAZING how much you improve once you figure it out? When I was little and got glasses I told my dad I didn't know I had freckles until then, when I stopped eating gluten...it was like I had a life again. Amazing.
