1) I stay away from white and neon colors. 2) Biggest pet peeve are running/workout skirts with attached shorts that are too short! Less than a 4 inch inseam and those babies ride up like crazy! I have MANY running skirts that I have ended up cutting the shorts out of and wearing UA compression shorts underneath. When I…

Oh My! I know this feeling! I just started running in June, and the first time I ran 2 miles straight I felt like superwoman! You'll be running 5Ks in no time!

I've been doing NROLFW for over two years, and there is no way I can do this! Awesome!

Oh. My. Word! You are incredible!

I've got to try this!

I sooooo get this! Congrats on your victory!

Whoa! I was expecting a stepped away from the table NSV..... This is so much more! One of the best ever!

I have been taking Zumba classes for over 3 years, and I LOVE it when I see someone begin to make their way to the front! I know how difficult and victorious that move is! It means that you are gaining confidence and beginning to be comfortable in your own skin. That you are finally starting to feel in control! That you…

Beautifully written and inspiring post! Thank you for sharing your victory with us!

^^^^ This!

Really unbelievable! This is probably the most impressive weight loss I have seen on mfp! Thank you for posting this awesome set of photos and for telling your story!
-
Now I understand why hubby said you should go topless with booty shorts! You look fantastic! HUGE change - and I can't even see you face. I bet that looks better too :)

Is it possible that you always weighed 118-123 because you were a child? And now you are a woman? There is a reason (besides keg parties) that so many girls gain weight in college. Why not concentrate on getting fit and strong. This may make you feel and look so much better than simply losing weight.

You are one funky chick! congratulations... you look fantastic!

I really don't think any of this makes him a bad guy. Are you married? If so, the decision on whether or not to take on your sister's kids should be made together. Raising children who are not your own - especially into their teenaged years - when they are probably experiencing a lot of angst over their mother and absent…

Really? What kind of person does that? I'm out around other people running/walking all the time and I don't ever remember thinking anything other than positive thoughts about them - like we are on the same team. So even if there are a few scoffers (and, believe me, life has a way of catching up to them eventually!), there…

I've been known to workout as early as 11pm the night before! :laugh:

lol!!

I don't think either of these people were trying to be rude or bridezilla. We have no way of knowing the tone of voice, but I imagine the sister was just acknowledging your weight loss and trying to be funny - the same with the friend. the problem is that both of these comments were rather backhanded compliments. Kind of:…

Wow! You should feel very proud of yourself! Huge difference!
-
^^this!

Dang Girl! I'm 5'8", but I never looked anywhere near that good when I was 188! You ROCK!
-
Huge difference! You should feel very proud!
-
What a difference! You should feel exceptionally proud of yourself!
-
What excellent advice! I'd never heard about the 2800 cal, but it seems reasonable.
-
Absolutely! I've had to skip Zumba for the past month due to an ankle injury and, coincidentally, my weight loss has come to a standstill! Started back this week and it feels so good! Zumba is a really good whole body exercise - and it is a lot of fun! Just expect to feel awkward the first few times - everyone does!

Whew! I had a hard time believing the average BMI of Colorado was 20%!

All newbies should read this! Losing weight is about so much more than just looking better - it improves almost every aspect of your life!
