You look amazing, well done. I've done similar from 16.5 to 11 stone so I'm catching you.

reading all your message (and receiving friend requests) has been amazing. Thank you everyone. I had no idea I'd get this far in such a realtively short time but I put the weight on and I had to get it off. Honestly believe in yourself and you will do it.

Thanks for all the comments guys, I know how much I loved looking at success stories when I started out although I never thought in my wildest dreams I would do so well.

you look amazing, well done.

Yes Kat and all I get is the link and no photo

Hate this one with a passion, I even read all the way through the others to see if someone had already put this as their one. There's been some brilliant ones, I quite like MOIST though but that's maybe because it's something a girlfriend and I use :wink:

This really made me smile, it takes a while for us to see ourselves as everyone else does. Good luck in your 5k

you look incredible, well done. Love your top too and your smile :happy:

I think I'm in the minority in that I get no weight gain at all. I'm not on any birth control either. Losing weight has helped my periods tremendously. I do get heavy legs running on the treadmill but only for one of two days.

I've just graduated C25K and I can't extol the virtues of the program enough. 5 weeks ago I couldn't manage the 8 mins and then 5 mins run, now I'm doing the 5k in 34 minutes and determined to get it down to under 30. If I can do it, you can too.

I had a few of them. Seeing a photo of myself at a wedding. My favourite pj pants splitting and then the gap getting bigger and bigger to accommodate my growing butt and something a very good friend of mine said. It wasn't about me but about someone he'd met. He said that she was a big girl must've been around 16 stones…

I really ought to add that I've stuck to 1200 calories or there abouts every day. Has risen higher recently but am working out harder. I don't eat back my exercise calories. This works for me, doesn't mean it will for you. I was lucky in finding what worked straight away. Mind you when I have a task in hand a mule has…

I've never cried at a movie until the other week and it was The Descendants, probably because 2 years ago I was widowed and I also scattered my husband's ashes at sea. I was a complete mess but also very cathartic.

You looked amazing before you lost 60 pounds, now you look incredible. Well done.

You look absolutely amazing, congratulations on your wedding as well as your transformation.

Great job and you look beautiful in your sister's dress :wink:

You look amazing and the photos are brilliant. Well done on such a huge transformation.

You look amazing, congratulations on such a transformation.

My story goes like this. Was working in the payroll department of a food manufacturing company and one November a guy was brought into the office and introduced to us as one of the new Team Leaders. As he walked out of the office I told my boss that I was going to marry that guy. 12 months later we started going out, 3…

Wow, you look amazing. Keep up the great work.

These are making me laugh so much. Both mine happened on my first day at the gym 1 got my arm caught in my iPod wire and flung it off the back towards the person behind me, I was fine, iPod fine, not sure man behind will ever stand behind me again 2 with personal trainer and fell off yoga ball, flat onto my butt and he…

Not used the one you've mentioned but up until 3 weeks ago, I used Wii Fit, EA Sports Active and My Fitness Coach for all my workouts. Have on joined a gym and on the weekends have been using The Biggest Loser on the Wii - one word brutal. With good eating and exercising every day, it works.

I find drinking a lot of fruit tea helps as well as keeping busy and not thinking too much, and if they fail eating some porridge / oatmeal.

you look like a different woman, well done and keep up the amazing work.

Please come and clean out my closet, I keep putting it off because I know 90% of it is now too big.

I went straight in at week 5 on this as been exercising since last summer. I'm using a treadmill and today did day 3 of week 5 and amazed myself in running for 20 minutes non stop. I'm going for slower over distance to build up my stamina. If I can run, believe me anyone can.

well done, I've done the same. Saved something and then it's too big. Oh well, more shopping needed.

It's a great feeling when the Wii doesn't 'groan' when you stand on the balance board - well done on your achievement

I actually now wish I did take photos at the very start but I didn't like fully clothed ones of me le alone underwear shots
