Whew!
 

I'm there!!! Size 4 jeans, purchased tonight! They're snug in the booty, but the husband thoroughly approves of them that way. *blush* But then, I'm not used to wearing clothes that actually fit; I normally use them to hide my figure, not showcase it.

Anyway, I no longer use the scale, so I don't know how much weight I've lost, but as of last month it was 94 pounds, so I guess a little more than that. I was getting too obsessed with the numbers, so I decided that at size 4 I'd start trying to maintain and tone rather than lose.

Now, to start on that!! *heads off to the Maintainers forum*

Congrats!! Size 4???? I am at a size 8 and think I will try to maintain this, no way could I stay a size 4 for more than a few weeks (I've done this before). You should be so proud and happy!!!!

Thank you, ladies! Y'all know how to make a girl feel good about herself. :D

Candlemaker, I have "before" pics, but not many. And I will see about having the hubby take some photos of me in the new jeans this weekend. Thanks again for the kind words!!

callysta, Congratulations on the size 4's. That is awesome. WTG.

Congratulations and welcome to the wonderful world of maintenance. :balloons:

We're looking forward to seeing lots of you over in Maintainers! :D And yes, please post photos!

Wow, you are an inspiration! Can't wait to see the before and after pics!

WTG!!!:cheer: :cheer: HOORAY!!! If you don't mind me asking.....how long did it take to lose the weight?

I had a lot of starts and stops, and periods in which I would "give up" for a while and thus gain back five or so pounds, so...about three years. But I learned from every setback, and it's worth it!!

Thank you again, everyone. :D

Congrats on the weight loss! That is awesome!!! :D

Way to go!

Wow!!!!! Good for you. You look and sound marvelous. You definitely provided me motivation for the day and I thank you! Good luck with "maintaining".

Wow - you were a gorgeous bride, and now you're a gorgeous svelte everyday person!

*blush* Thank you all. I appreciate the kind words, but ye gods, I hate that first picture. It was really hard to get up the guts to post it.
