Pretty Much There
 

I still have seven pounds to go but I expect to lose those last seven pounds very slowly, if at all. I have started working out again and I expect to build some muscle so I may not lose any more weight. Therefore I decided to post here, since I have achieved the look I was going for and the rest of my weight-loss journey will be about building muscle so I can maintain.

So, here are my before and after pics:

Christmas 2009, approx 190 lbs.

Trying to get a better "after" pic.

Congratulations on your loss! I don't see any photos though... just headings. Am I missing something? Are there photos posted here that I am not getting?

Let me upload them to a different site and try to re-link them.

[edit] Done. Are they any better? [/edit]

Congratulations. I am always impressed when the before pictures are just as good as the after--you're a very pretty woman. You looked great before--you look great now. Again, congrats on your success.

Congrats on the loss! It also looks like you're aging in reverse. You look about a decade younger in your "now" pictures then you did two years ago.

Wow! you look amazing! :) great job!

WOOT WOOT! Look at that hot chickie! :)

I love seeing everyone's transformations, and watching the inner beauty come out. As the pounds came off, you looked more and more radiant.

CONGRATS!!
