Here is another picture : inner arms has the skin. and take my word for it, the weight loss will still seem so nice... it will. I would have NEVER thought I could wear this dress when I weighed 330 pounds, even if I did find one that fit me, I was a size 28 , I am now a size 6, TRUST ME, The weight loss seems so nice!!!

I have extra skin... cant you see it??:frown: I hope you look at my muscles first , then notice the skin, if you do, you will know that I have done something amazing and am now a healthy , happy , thin person who has muscles and some extra skin, which is a whole lot better than the person in the before picture..... dont…

I have lost 187 pounds . here is my before and a now you can do it too!:flowerforyou:

I wont even wear short sleeves out in public on most days, let alone a bikini! I have major muscle defination , I am just not going to subject anyone to the sagging skin that I also have. that just wouldnt be nice.

5 pounds is my marker. I still measure all my food, and log it every day. ... 5 pounds.. NOT 10. :) Good luck!

it is not out yet, and its for Group Health publication . I think it just goes here in the Wa State area, but I could be wrong. ? it will be out in about a month .

Karen, I love that!! I bet that is what they were going for!! the title of the article is called " exercise is medicine!"

Thank you!!! How are you ??

thank you Susan!!! :)

Thanks Sweetie!!

OMG Thank YOU!! Look at how FABULOUS YOU ARE!!!!!! :drinker: YOU ROCK!!!

thank you guys! I love it!

thank you guys!!! :flowerforyou:

I love you both too!!! you guys ROCK , so supportive and truely wonderful people. I wouldnt want to be on this journey without you guys!

my starting weight was 330 pounds. I now weight 143, I did not have surgery, I did not join any weight loss program, I did it all on my own ( with the help of MFP) and it took just shy of 2 years. I have a blog that you can read, and I am an active member here too. You Can do it without surgery, you just need to know that…

:drinker: I am going to say this : they are a gimic. Pure and simple. you will not get the round butt that they show in the ads just by wearing them. Also, being a group fitness instructor, I do not think these are good to wear while in classes or doing cardio. do things that work your glutes, do lunges and squats and hip…

not to mention, ugly... lol I do not think these work, and they certainly do not take the place of any workout. Want a rounder butt? Do squats and lunges and LOTS OF THEM!!! take my word for it. :)

YEAH LYNDS!!! Love the pics, you look FAB!! get some sunless tanner , you will be fine, ( I love jergens natural glow, everyday lotion) I love ya! You look so good I want to give you a big hug!!! :bigsmile:

always !! I love the mirror!! when i am teaching classes I am always looking at myself , which I should be looking more at the people in my class.. lol i love what I see, I cant help it!

This is amazing. This post of 1 year old. almost to the DATE! how fun to see it resurface!!! Love it!! Can I share with you all my current pics ? thank you all ! its so nice to see all your comments! Tami

your kidding me right??? You have no clue what you are talking about.

I got ya beat . I was 48 H and now 34B ..... UGH:grumble:

awesome job! You should be super proud of yourself!! You look wonderful!

You know your body better than anyone. :flowerforyou:

it could be something you have to figure out on your own, or with help from your DR. I can not eat that much, even with all the calories I burn every week. MY body got use to eating a lower # that when i increased, I actually gained. It took , me talking with my DR to figure it out. I will never be able to eat that many…

I feel like its so easy to fall back , or it could be so easy to fall back, that its better for me to stay logging and keep moving forward. Its so easy to forget you ate something... so you better log it!

Thanks Guys! I had such a great time doing the shoot ! thanks for taking the time to read the blog too!

lol, we need a like button !

See and I think that you know I lost my weight following this site, since I am ON THIS SITE. if that makes sense. I am always taken aback when people ask me " how did you do it" , I just assume you know that I did it by counting my calories, logging all my food, and working out . that is how I did it, that is what this…

Started at 330, I would LOVE T oweigh 135, I am at 143 , I dont think its going anywhere else. my goal was 145.
