I'd also like some friends! 29, lost 40lbs, in maintenance mode. Mum of one, love to run and workout and I love CAKE haha. And chocolate...and pasta...and bread...and cheese..mmmmmm. Anyways, feel free to add me!

Thank you for sharing, it takes a lot of courage to be so honest and that is inspiring. Keep going, there is light at the end of the tunnel and despite what you might feel on some tough days, you CAN do this!! Really, you CAN. If you want to be friends on here, feel free to message me!

What an awesome difference!!! 68 pounds is a huge achievement, really awesome. Keep going, even on the days when you want to give up. You can do it, you were made to be strong, and when you think you don't have anything left, look to the One who is the source of all our strength!! Congratulations on this massive…

Awesome NSV!! What an AWESOME feeling!!!! Size 3!!!! Yahoooo!!!!

What an amazing transformation. YOU are amazing and an inspiration to all of us!!!! All the best with your marathon!! You can do it for sure!!!! Amy

My husband said my legs looked skinnier!! And he often says "you're so slim!" I've been at goal weight for a few months but he can always keep the compliments coming ;-)

Wow, totally inspiring!!!! Makes me want to get in on it too....... thanks for sharing!

What love handles!? You look great. Way to go! I would estimate about 15% BF? You have to get below 20 to see abs, so you're doing amazingly!!!

Oh em gee. You look smoking!!!!! What an achievement, congratulations!! Friend request coming your way :-)

Don't be self conscious, you're among friends here. And you look GREAT!

Wow wow wow wow wow!!!! I wish I could quote ALL of you. You're all amazing!! And to the people who comment and say "I hope I can post here one day".... I KNOW you WILL post here one day!! You can do it!! Keep going!! We love you!!! All things are possible!!!!

Yes!! I love HIIT. I had a great time with Jillian Michael's 30 Day shred, Ripped in 30 and her Shed and Shred dvd workouts. I bet you can find some online. She also has an online membership which I followed for a few months, meal plans and workouts included. it was really worth it. I lost 40lbs. Running is great long term…

40 pounds = a 5-gallon bottle of water or an average human leg !! I lost a leg!!!! hahahahha!!!

That's AWESOME. Really, I'm right there celebrating with you! I love that feeling!! Enjoy them!! ;-)

Wow, really awesome. I also have that "double take" thing sometimes in the mirror.... "who is that" I ask sometimes in photos!!! Maybe it will take us a while to get used to our new bodies, but I am sure glad (as you probably are) to be on the other side of it all. You've done an amazing job!!! Congratulations, you look…

YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!! God really, truly helps us in these things when we look to Him. He helped me too!! Amazing! I'd love to be friends on here and keep encouraging one another! Amy

You've got a kind smile, you look like a great guy!!

Yep, I did!! I love it, especially after doing the 30DS. It's challenging, but not in the way that you think "uh, I can't do this", because you've just done the 30DS you're like "bring it on, Jill baby!". It's harder, but more fun. You'll love it. I also love her Shred and Shed DVD. Also a LOT of fun!!! You look GREAT!!!…

Hi Michelle, You WILL be one of those people on here, in fact, taking this step, you are already a success story. So many people go through life without "showing up" (so says Jillian Michaels). You're taking charge and moving towards a goal. You are already successful! If you want to be buddies on here, feel free to add…

You look great!!!! You said "I know I still have a ways to go", but really man, you don't need to loose any more. You look great. What an achievement!!!

Fae, I was also an avid sports hater my whole life! I always found excuses to not do sports when I could. I even once claimed that I had a "frozen toe" (from the cold weather).... NOT true. Stupid excuse, but I wanted out! I hated my body and hated the way I felt- shy, totally not confident and so, SO conscious of how…

- Shopping without disappointment: knowing that the jeans will fit me before trying them on! - Going out of the house not caring what I look like because I FEEL GOOD! - Putting on a swimsuit and going swimming - Wearing SHORTTTSSS!!! - Running 2 5km races last year and going for countless 5km runs - Hitting 9km in an hour!…

Wow!! 100lbs!!! That's really something!! Congratulations!!!!!

Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. What an inspiration. Truly. God bless you richly in your journey together!!! Thanks so much for sharing!!!

Would love to. Just let me know what you need me to do! I lost 20kg over the last year and have one son, 17 months old.

Yes, and amen, and "here here", and GOOD FOR YOU. Thank you for sharing, because your words will probably touch more people than you realise. There's too many people out there with toxic words. Time to start loving ourselves and others. All the best for your new relationship. It sounds amazing. Bless you!

Hey, 6kg is an awful lot, that's 12lbs, that's 12 bags of sugar!!!! That's a lot!!!! You look great :-)

The first thing I noticed in the first picture was your lovely eyes, you've got a great sparkle! You're gorgeous, and an inspiration. Thank you for sharing, and keep going, even when you think you can't go further, you can. Bless you on this journey! x

Hi! You mentioned fitness watches... I love my Polar heart rate monitor... It's an FT4. Not too many bells and whistles. Tells you your heart rate, calories burned, average heart rate during training, highest & lowest heart rate during training. It keeps track of your sessions, acts as a watch and has an alarm. Easy to set…

Also maintaining! I'm 28 and 5'7 at 136lbs. I lost 21kg over the last year and work out as often as I can (although I'm recovering from a burnout and can't workout as much at the moment). I'd love to connect with more people. Like some others on here I'm not losing any more but would love to reduce some fat, tone up and…
