    VERY COOL!!!! I cant wait to get to experience that...Ive been stuck in the 130s for a few weeks now...

    MAJOR CONGRATS!!!

    I was stuck at 133-134 for like a zillion months. Then I realized i wasn't eating enough calories and upped my intake. Then I started losing again!


    i have been stuck here for months - you're belly pic has given me hope :)

    congratz on breaking into the 120s! that's my personal goal too, to get into the 120s. But right now, I'm still trying to break into the 130s! I started at 167 and I'm hoping to get into the 120s by the end of summer at least. Thanks for the inspiration and motivation!

    My friend and I are fighting the plateau battle at 133-135. We've been there for weeks? We work out everyday for 45-60 minutes and we log our food faithfully. It's so depressing... We've tried upping our calories the last couple of weeks, but nothing seems to be changing. How much did you up your cals? How many were you eating to begin with?

    Great job! You give me motivation. Sounds like you are the same height as me and I started about the same as you, but haven't seen 120's without serious work in quite a few years. I think when I get close and get stuck at the lower end of the 130's instead of severe calorie restriction, I'll follow your example and just increase my calories. I too am curious, how many calories do you aim for and how many do you generally burn?

    You look great! and you're short also! I'm about the same weight and height but it's hard for me to get my tummy to be as tight as yours? Tell me your secret!

    Awesome! You are so lucky!! I'm 5'1 and my stomach back when I was at 151 lbs didn't look anything like yours, I had a huge muffin top lol. I'm hoping the little bit of flab I have left will go away once I hit my 120's too. You look amazing! good job!

    you look great! what a differance!!

    how tall are you?

    I'm super short! 5'1'!!

    LOL! I am 5 feet even! My CW pics look like your starting pics! Definitely proves the theory that a certain weight on one person will look different on another even as heights are similar. But , I will catch up with you - give me time! You look fantastic - great job!!

    You look great!!! Like so many of the other ladies on here I'm also short (5'2'') and have been in the 130-134 range for ages. These days the scale keeps teasing me at the 131 mark. :mad: Hope I can get to where you are and look just as good!

    Congrats! I can't wait to reach 120, I'm 5'2 :smile: how many calories do you have per day? I

    I actually got stuck for awhile at 135lbs and was eating about 1250ish. So I raised my calories 1400-1500 and I've been losing again!
