You all may not be able to see it, but I can tell. In just two weeks, the same pants are loose, and my tummy isn't out further than my boobs. YAYA!!

i think moms(because i am one) worry about diets on their children and think that it may be a quick fix and lead you to be disappointed. i know that she's proud, just may be holding back because she wants to make sure your doing it the healthy way. maybe she doesn't understand the ip way or maybe she has *sorry to say this* failed in diets of her own, so she just worries about you getting let down too.

you're doing great hun, please believe all of us when we say that!

He has seen me try hard for a long time, get 35 or 40 off and then float back up. He just wanted me to really stay at it.

When I saw him 3 weeks ago, he was really excited and kept saying "I am so proud of you. You are really looking great!" and, he was bragging to friends and people about me. It was worth the wait!

Frankly, I would have been crushed, too. But with longevity comes perspective. I'm with Carla. I think your mom probably didn't want to vest too much emotion at this point thinking she might set you up for a fall when all she really needed to do was just give you a little encouragement. Well, you've got it here, and in spades.

Thanks guys Maybe someday when I'm a mom I'll understand why you all are so loco.

I'm too chicken to post my picture. I'm going to join the facebook page (if I can ever remember to do it while I'm on there) so you'll be able to see my picture there.

And yes, those are ABS in the first photo, and yes those are tattoos in the second



its just amazing that at 170 and my height you look that good makes me think what is WRONG with me??? is it me or what? I looked so bad at 155, nothing like your 170.

I have a ridiculous amount of muscle mass. Which is what made me think that maybe 135 would be impossible for me without losing that. My legs and arms are losing inches slowly because they are about 60% muscle, still. 13 years of cheerleading, and being too big boned to be the girl on top of the pyramid will make you awfully strong

Thank you for sharing your pictures. I woke up this morning feeling like a truck hit me and was seriously thinking about quitting the diet (this is Day 4). But your shared photos have strengthened my resolve. Hopefully I will be sharing in a few weeks

I know how you feel! But you gotta remember, the rest is going down, too. I've lost 7 inches (7 INCHESSSS!!!!) off my boobs since May 18th, gone from a 44 DD to a 38 DDD (IN THE 30's AGAIN!!!!)... but my hips and waist have lost a total of 11.5, so it's all coming off.

I just wish those 38 DDD's sat out, instead of down... but at least I look better in clothes!

Lookin for Loss, Don't give up...4th day was by far the worst I have felt on this diet, I thought I had the flu. You will read on this site that this is very common. If you stick with it you will feel better in no time.
