First of all, you should be so proud of yourself! I've lost 53 pounds myself now and know how much a difference losing those 50+ pounds can make. I bet you're starting to look fabulous, girl! Good luck with your belly... it'll have to start shrinking eventually, right? :hug:

My very, very last 5 lbs to come off of me made a HUGE difference in my overall appearance and in any extra fat I had on me. HUGE. Especially in my stomach and thighs. In fact when I go up five pounds I am amazed at just how much larger my tummy and thighs are. Amazed.

This is what I'm hoping for... the only two problem areas I have left are my stomach and thighs, but my thighs are tolerable. It's only my stomach that is bigger than I would have thought at my size. I wear a size 10 now but I started out 53 pounds ago at a 14, so the belly actually hasn't changed THAT much. I'm never expecting to be a size 0 or anything, but couldn't help but be curious about where my last 14 pounds will leave me. I'll just have to wait and see, but hopefully I'll be like you and finally start losing there. Congratulations on still maintaining your loss, rockinrobin. You really have been a big inspiration for all of us here at 3FC, especially when you yell at us when we need it most (sometimes "It's okay, just do better next time" doesn't cut it, after all!) Thanks for sticking around and being the ever inspirational maintainer! :D
Oh by the way I'm not 100 lb club so I hope I didn't offend by posting here; the topic was just something I could relate to. You guys really are awesome for being able to lose so much weight... truly inspirational.
