:smile: So 2010-2011 has brought me fantastic results ! It has beeen a good year filled with hard work and determination. I woke up one morning and hated who I let myself become and did something about it. It was one of the hardest challenges to date, but it helped me realize that if I can do this I can do anything.

I thought I would share with you all some pictures in hopes to inspire others just like those who have inspired me.:heart:

Christmas 2009 195

I want to thank all my MFP friends for their support this year ! But don't worry, you can't get rid of me yet. I have set my goal for this year and am ready for a new challenge! I am also here for any of you for support. I like to give back what I have received!

Happy Holidays!

    Wow! you look truly amazing!!! I know you said you did this through diet and exercise. Do you mind elaborating on this a bit? what exactly were you doing with food? watching calories, carbs, a specific diet? and exercise, how much and how often and where you focusing on cardio, weights or both? sorry for all the questions, but you and I are similiar in our stats and I seem to have hit a standstill and could use some motivation to get the last 15 pounds off.
    Thanks :)

    I feel like my old self before I loss the weight. But now I am more aware of what needs to be done to maintain and stay fit :) Exercise has made my body strong. I think I am in better shape than when I was in my 20's. It feels great to be running around with my kids and my body now cooperates.

    Thank you for posting, and more importantly, thanks for sharing your success, hard work, and commitment.
    Your photos speak for themselves. I often think of these before and after pictures as a chrysalis waiting to reveal the beautiful butterfly inside. And you emerged beautifully! Wishing you a lifetime of happy fluttering!
