Hello MFP!

I just wanted to make a quick post about my progress. I started at about 210 pounds in May of 2011. That is the heaviest I have ever been my entire life. In fact when I was 16 I was only 109! Now at 21 I am finally down to 150-145 lbs... 145 of course on my good days. I would like to get down to about 120-130, to be honest just something that when I look in the mirror I am happy with. I am super proud I have come this far, and my hard work has defiantly paid off cause I will be dancing at a techno fest within the next 2 weeks!!! So Yay!!! Anyway feel free to add me, as I am not done yet and enjoy the support.

    It will! You just gotta keep with it, and have that hope :D

    I felt the same way when I was 210, I thought my belly wont look normal, it's gonna be all flabby and stuff once I lose this. But, I rubbed coco butter on it, and lost weight slowly and my belly looks pretty normal :D

    Best of luck to you!!!

    I would like to add as well that I'm a short girl. I'm only 5'4"!

    Also about my stretch marks, I did cocobutter & vitamin E. I also tanned, and did LOADS of red light therapy. All those things do wonders for stretch marks :D
