Small disclaimer: I'm a little nervous about posting this mostly because I never ever would wear anything like this in public. I don't usually show my midriff, so this is a one time thing! LOL!
Since I'm SO EXCITED I reached my goal, I wanted to post as a celebration!

January 1, 2012 to June 1, 2012

Hopefully, I can now try and tone that belly. It's a rough thing for me, because I've had lower back surgery...and still have lots of back problems. When I do ab exercises, it has to be very very carefully.

Since a lot of people were asking:
I'm 5'0" tall
I started at 127 lbs and am now 106.7 lbs. . . right in the middle of my weight range!

    Yeah! You look GREAT! Can I ask what your starting weight was? It looks like you and I have similar body types and my goal was to loose 20lbs as well (down about 16-17 right now). I'm reluctant to post pics in my sports bra & shorts too, but if you're as proud as you should be - and know how motivating it is to us other MFP fans, it's worth the exposure! Thanks!

    Great job, you look more fabulous. Noticed a new tat also. Was that a reward?

    Wow. You look great. It looks like you've lost more than 20LBS so you really must have toned a lot too.

    What are your stats if I can ask? height/weight..

    Thank you!!! I only 5'0" tall...I started out at 127, and now I'm down to 106.7.
    I'm dead center in my weigh range right now! :D

    Thanks!!! No, it wasn't a reward. I took my son to get his first tattoo in January, so I got one at the same time! That is a good idea though! It's time for another!
