Really inspiring ladies. Hopefully I'll be able to share some pictures of my own in the near future. =)

Haha, RachaelJ I live in Marietta/Kennesaw.

I went and bought a new pair of jeans today. I'm officially a 12! Also, excuse the dirty mirror.
Ok, it's really big for some reason. Photobucket doesn't seem to be my friend today. Sorry!

aww thank you guys!!!!

THOSE JEANS LOOK AWESOME!!!

OMG Ashley, total transformation!!

Thank you ladies for the comments! I feel so stuck right now, and even though I know I am slimmer, I almost feel fatter now? I think it is due to the fact I know what to be in good shape is, since I see people in the gym everyday! I am so glad I joined here, I hope it helps me stay on the wagon!

PicklesThePirate-- you look great! and you have a wonderful smile, your so pretty! ((:

Aw, thanks. You guys are so nice!
fromthebox you look so skinny! And very cool. Definitely jealous of the harley. Do you ride? Or only with your boyfriend?

these transformations are breathtaking. I hope to gosh that I can be one of you someday and be thin again!

I've gone from a size 17 jeans to a 9 and xl/xxl shirts to smalls and mediums!! :)

Kendrab, look at those LEGS!!! Talk about HUGE change!! I want those legs!

Pickles- you rock those 12's!! I have 12's and am no where close to rocking it like that!

Fromthebox- after stalking all of the treads, I loved your green bikini!! You are my GOAL! I love the motorcycle too! Freaking HOTNESS

And for the record ladies, I am enthusiastic, not trying to pick anyone up lol

You guys look amazing!! Congrats on all the weight loss! I've been back on the weight loss band wagon for about three weeks now. I'm kind of frustrated, my weight has flucuated (which I know is normal), but over all I've only lost a half pound! (grr)
