I always enjoy your updates. Congratulations on your continued success!

What a fantastic achievement -- and look how gorgeous you are!

I've been donating them to charity. I'm getting by with just a few pairs of shorts, denim skirts, and tops this summer. I'm definitely going to have to spend some serious money on new clothing for fall. I'm hoping I'll be able to fit into an XL at one or more of the mainstream clothing stores so that I'll have more…

What a dramatic transformation! Congratulations on your success!

Congratulations on your success! And thank you for putting it out there that you don't have to be perfect every day to lose a significant amount of weight (which is great news because none of us is perfect). :-)

What you said here really resonated with me: "Motivation is what got me started, habit is what keeps me going!" Thanks -- and congratulations on your success!"

What an incredible success story. Congratulations!

That is amazing! Congratulations on your success!

What a wonderful success story. Have read a number of your blog posts and always enjoy reading how supportive Ed has been on your journey. Hugs to both of you.

What a dramatic difference that 25 lb. weight loss has made. Congratulations!

Great work! You look terrific.

What an inspiring story. Congratulations on your hard-earned success.

My goal is to lose 131 lbs. I've lost 52 lbs. since I joined MFP in January. I've become physically active, reduced the quantity of what I eat and improved the quality of what I eat, and I've worked through a lot of emotional issues related to why I turn to food for reasons other than hunger. I'm feeling really healthy and…

I started with a similar (although bigger) goal in early January. I am trying to lose 131 pounds so that I can reach my goal weight (155 lbs) at some point next year -- the year I turn 50. I have lost 52 pounds so far toward that goal. I hadn't planned to become more active -- or to love physical activity as much as I do…

Fantastic! Keep up the great work. PS You are gorgeous!

Food aversions during pregnancy are common. Some women develop a metallic taste in their mouth that makes foods taste different. Others simply find that certain types of foods taste funny/different.

You have been through so much and yet you have found the strength to create the life you want. Congratulations!

Fantastic! What a wonderful, joy-filled success story.

When I started back in January, I was in terrible shape. I would get out of breath going up a flight of stairs. I started out by walking short distances on my treadmill (it was winter at the time) and then progressed to being able to run for 30 seconds at a time. Lately, I've been trying all kinds of things: doing short…

I work as a writer. The Flex gives me virtually no calorie burn for my sedentary hours -- including when I'm at my keyboard (which is pretty much anytime I'm not eating, sleeping, or on my treadmill). :-) I have been comparing its calorie burn (for activity) to that of my Polar Watch and HRM. There can be discrepancies if…

Very inspiring! So happy for you.

You look amazing! Congratulations on your success. I totally agree re: the protein. I had less than my usual quota today and I was starving (and grumpy). :-)

You look amazing, Lisa -- and so happy. Congratulations!

This is one of the most inspiring stories I've ever read. Congratulations to you for taking your life back. You deserve all the happiness that is coming your way. Your daughter sounds awesome, too. How wonderful that she had the wisdom to support you in making these changes during such a difficult time in your lives. Kudos…

So happy for you! Congratulations!

I would love for my husband to experience this NSV. He has started losing weight, too! (Happy for him and proud of him.)

So happy to see how happy you look. Congratulations on your hard-earned and much-deserved success.

You are looking awesome, my friend. Congratulations and keep up the great work.

Lovely one -- I think you mean that your current weight is 148 (not 248). :-) So proud -- and lucky -- to have you as an MFP friend.

So happy for you. xo
