Exactly!

Perhaps we say "I don't want to get too skinny" to prevent people from telling "Wow, you've lost a lot of weight but you can stop now!" I had people saying that to me all the time when I was nearing the top end of healthy BMI. It was really annoying so I'd say it before they could. Once I started fitting into size 10 (US…

Surely if bones were all the same size, we'd all be the same height? Why do i have great big man hands and my twin sister (only 2in shorter than me) has tiny hands even though we're the same size? I don't get it.

I'm 60lb down in about 6 months with only calorie deficit but I do need to firm up so I wish I'd done weights at the same time.

Worked for me too (calorie deficit only) so no flack from me! Well done (*) and good luck with the exercise regime. I'll start one soon too and hopefully we will both be amazed by our results!

[/quote] Wow this really motivates me! I weigh around 210 need to loose about 70 pounds. I'm 5'8' and a 1/2. You look amazing! [/quote] Thank you! I feel so proud of myself :-). Good luck with your journey xx

You all look phenomenal! So inspiring - wish I'd looked at the community posts before when I was struggling to stay motivated! Here's mine (not quite bathing suit but as close as I've got). I'm 1.77cm tall. Started at 205lbs (93kg) and am now at 147lb (67kg). Thank you MFP!!

Annette_15 you look great too! Everyone does - I love this thread :-) Bebenevaeh, I am probably not the right person to ask but I accepted your friend request if you need motivation. My tummy just disappeared (almost) as I lost the weight. I'm sure it'd look even better with weight training or something so if you've…

I'm 5'8", 37 yo woman with 2 boys. Youngest is 3 years old. I started on 205lb (93kg) and now weigh 147lb. I am sedentary (couch potato sounds so much worse) but have decided that losing more weight will probably not help with my problem areas so am thinking of starting weight training and yoga? I think i will try maintain…

Sorry, no idea how to post pics properly

I'm a 37 year old female. 2 kids (the youngest is 3). I'm 1.77cm (5'8"ish). SW was 93kg (205lb) and current weight is 67kg (147lb). I've decided that my weight now is okay although I'd originally decided that 63kg was my GW. I'm completely couch potato but I'm thinking of starting weight training and yoga to fix the last…

Thank you :# . I do wish I'd done this the way you're doing it - with diet AND exercise! Baby steps though...

You're looking great so just keep on doing what you've been doing! Keep taking photos as you go along - you might find your goal will change. I'm 37, 176cm (5ft7.5in) tall and weigh 68kg (150lb). I started on 83kg in June and thought my goal weight was 63kg (143lb) but now that I'm at this weight, I've actually decided…
