    You do look amazing! How long did it take you to lose 50 pounds? That is about what I'd like to lose (or 60)....any special tips?

    I would say it took about 2 years. I trained for a triathlon and lost about 20 lbs and then I found MFP!!!

    What I would say is - listen to MFP. IT WORKS!!! I also thing that fitness goals are key to success. I had never done a 5k in my life and I just signed up for one -- THEN I HAD TO!!! Then I did a triathlon. And then I did a half marathon!!!

    Just take it with baby steps, but keep PUSHING yourself. I believe that SO MUCH of this is all in your head!

  • You were definitely very beautiful either way but it's true, you're glowing and look so healthy now. Congrats and thanks for the inspiration! I'm a firm believer in pushing myself so this gives me all the more reason to do so!
