oh lucky you KoriHalllelujah. The last time I could fit into a size 11, I weighed 143 lbs.!!!

I wish we all lived closer to one another so we could go shopping in each other's closets!

I am now a happy size 12!

I have attached my Beginning IP photos as well as my today photos. I started IP as a size 20... now at a size 12 after shedding 43 pounds!

Wow, you look fabulous!

I second Mrs Diettrich you look fabulous AND much younger AND happier!

Way to go!

You look fabulous, doxi!

Thank you all for your kind words. I think it is important to say that everyone on this site deserves a big "Way to Go!".

IP is an excellent protocol, but it does not work itself. This plan requires alot of discipline and dedication. I truly believe this forum has benn the backbone of my success.

Thanks to all of you!!! :hug:

Hello everyone...this was an old thread and I thought I would bump it forward to help motivate everyone....

I started on September 13th as a size 18 pants and XXL or 1X top

Today after a major shopping spree (every store imaginable...hitting the clearance racks) I am somewhere between a 10 and 12 pants (10 is tight in waist, but 12 is too loose) and a size medium top...I am giddy with excitement. I really feel like I will reach my goal of a size 6-8 (not sure which yet).

I love this diet.

Now that you've bumped this thread up (thanks, darbs7!), I'll add my latest NSV... yesterday, I bought a pair of Medium exercise shorts at Academy... according to their size chart, that's size 8-10!.. since I started out in size 16, does that mean I'm half my former size???.. haha, just kidding, I don't think it works that way, but it sure was a boost to my self-esteem...

hugs :hug:

I started September 15, at 195, wearing a size 16/18 and 1X tops. I'm down to 163 and wearing a size 12. I could fit into a M top if I wanted to but I'm sticking with a L for now since the good Lord blessed me up top.

I started 10/10/10 in XXL tops and size 14 & sometimes 16 pants. I am now in a size 10 pant and XL/L tops (I too have been blessed in the boobage region and haven't lost any of it yet). Going to talk to the plastic surgeon this week about a reduction, so I'm hoping that within a couple of months, I'll be in a size S top!

Ooooh, now that has me jealous! I'm sick and tired of my DDs.

Me too - I'm a 38DD and while I've lost 8" off my bust, it's all come off of my my back rolls (not complaining - they needed to go too). I've been keeping my fingers crossed that I don't lose anything in the cup until surgery - for insurance to pay for it, they need to remove at least 500 gms from each side (about a fist and a half). I'll find out on Wednesday if the doctor thinks that I am big enough to lose it! I don't mind ending up in an A cup, but I'd prefer to have them up where they belong and not halfway to my waist and flat as a pancake!

started 10/6/10
Size 10 (tight) I was in denial about my size I should have been wearing size 12 but I refused to buy a bigger size.
Now 12 weeks late I am in all 8's and some stretch size 6's!!

alright I was a size 10 jeans and now am sporting a size 4, might be 6 though due to gain of a few pounds over holidays but plan to make that 4 feel loose in a month or so.

tops were LARGE and now small or medium depending on what store I buy them from.

bra size was 36C and now 32DD.
