It took a little over year but I finally lost that stubborn last 15p that I have been hanging on to since 2007. I started 3FC @ 155p but I was actually in the low 170's in 2006. I managed to lose most of that during a period of high stress but the last 15p is credited to Jillian Michaels, eating in moderation and lots and lots of cardio/jogging.

First pic is about a month into it. I was actually a bit more fluffy but accidentally deleted my real start pic and I don't want to post any of my face, but you get the idea.

After pic is in jeans that barely fit and gave me muffin top galore. Not anymore!

Congrats! You look amazing! I know you say "featherweight", but weight loss at your level is often the hardest! So you are still hardcore to me! Enjoy your bod!!!

Congratulations !

ooh i wish i had that tummy! i'm at goal but lots of loose skin. Congrats!

congrats!!! You look GREAT, so nicely proportioned.

I can only hope to get into the low 140's but I am trying.

(I just tried Jillian's Banish Fat / Boost Metabolism today, OMG!)

I hope you weren't discounting your effort and hard work by calling yourself a featherweight! AWESOME job. I can imagine it gets really hard toward the last 10-15 pounds! Wonderful commitment for sure.

You look amazing, congratulations!!!

Thank you, everyone!

Yes, the last 10-15p SUCK. Jillian is very tough but effective, I can't say enough good things about her except she's annoying so I had to mute the DVD and wear an ipod to keep me going. I started with 5p weights and then eventually went to 10p weights. I got bored with her after several months and started jogging to speed things up, now I want to go back to her to tighten up my arms/legs again since I lost some muscle definition from just doing lots of cardio since September.

FWIW, a lot of us here suffer with "bat wings" and I used to have very fatty upper arms (to the point I was uncomfortable wearing tank tops) and they have shrank a lot. Thank goodness because my upper arms really used to bother me, more than my spare tire. So there's hope!

I seriously never thought I'd see this day! Good luck everyone...KEEP GOING!!

Bwahahaha, "I can't say enough good things about her except she's annoying..." Funniest thing I've heard all day.

Congrats!!!

Congrats! You look great!

Congratulations! You look AWESOME!

Holy crap! Passed my goal, I'm at 139.4 this morning and that was after eating breakfast! I'm 3 pounds from High School weight and I'm 38.

Congratulations!
