    Seeing your post has motivated me to keep going for my goal!

    I wear long flowing dresses to hide my shape, but this has encouraged me and made me realise I can make it back into clothes that will make me feel good!

    well done, an inspiration to us all!

    Thanks so much for posting this! This really made me feel good about what I'm doing because I have the exact same mind set. Instead of dieting I've just adopted a completely different lifestyle. So far I never feel deprived and nothing is completely "off limits." I'm nearing 100 days of my new lifestyle and lost I've 19 pounds and 2 jeans sizes so far. :) Hope that one day I'll be as successful as you! You're a big inspiration!

    You look amazing! Today was my 5th day using MFP and I want to lose about the same as you have. I'm still at the point that exercise just plain sucks because of my weight but I'm trying to just get up and move and hopefully it won't take long before it is easier.

    Thank you for being an inspiration for us all.

    Because I didn’t go on a diet but decided to completely change the way I lived, I didn’t really have any major setbacks. I didn’t deprive myself, I just made sensible choices and consumed reasonable portions.

    Other than limitations due to food allergies (I’m allergic to milk), there aren’t any “off limits” foods for me; however, I do try to get the most nutritional “bang” for my caloric “buck.” I eat a variety of whole grains, lean proteins, healthy fats, and fresh fruits and veggies.

    I try to indulge cravings with either healthier alternatives or smaller portions (a personal favorite of mine is having almond milk mocha – almond milk, unsweetened cocoa powder, instant coffee, stevia – to give me my chocolate and caffeine fix for approximately 65 calories a cup, although I otherwise stick to water as my beverage of choice). Also, if I am going to have something less-than-healthy, I make otherwise very healthy choices throughout the day and/or do some extra exercise.

    I love your attitude towards food. It's healthy and very sustainable and I agree 100%.

    Congratulations-you look amazing!
