Congratulations! We are a mom and (teenage) daughter duo starting this journey, and the first post we saw when we came to this site was yours. We looked thru your pics and were amazed. Keep it up! :-) You are an inspiration

I just love your posts I think you are so beautiful in all of them! And you seem to have a lot of wisdom for your years. I wish I had gotten my act together when I was your age. You are such an inspiration!

Congrats, Meredith! You look absolutely amazing!

WOW, I am so excited to see what a positive response there's been to my pictures!! Thank you ladies so, SO much for all of the compliments! I always get just a *little* bit nervous before posting my progress pics (I know--you'd never think it, what with the crazy amounts of pictures I post, heh! ) because I'm paranoid that someone from "real life" will stumble upon this website and suddenly be privy to all the intimate details of my weight loss... Which could potentially be very embarrassing! But I know how much seeing other people's pictures inspires me, and it means so much to me to think that I could actually do the same for any of you; that kind of compliment is just priceless! And, wow--getting positive comments on my appearance is definitely NOT something that I've ever experienced before in my life! Pretty? Me? That's a thought that's definitely going to take some getting used to! I can't thank you all enough for your feedback!! I was practically tearing up reading some of the things you all said... I feel like any time I'm feeling shaky about this whole weight loss thing, I can come back here to remind myself that it IS worth it. Sometimes I feel like you ladies are the only thing holding me accountable, heh. Thanks again!!

You are no longer a Star2Be.. Now a Superstar! Congradulations on seeing such wonderful results after all your hard work. You are absolutely gorgeous and you have to remind yourself of that every day. You always were, but even more so now. It's funny because I am so so so proud of you and your accomplishments, as if I know you in real life. I saw your pictures here when I first started too and you have been a huge inspiration to me. Your positive energy and excitement is contagious! We'll be seeing you at goal real soon!

"STAR" is right! You look fantastic! Joy jumps right out of your photo! GOOD JOB on all your hard work! Enjoy living in that fabulous body!

You look so, so, soooo amazing! You are a gorgeous girl and this body really showcases that. I'm definitely inspired.

You are such a beautiful girl! The mom in me wants to warn you against all those boys that are surely checking you out! Your sweet personality comes right though in your pictures too. Congratulations Meredith!

Such a beautiful young lady! Congratulations on your weight loss. You have every reason to be smiling.

Wowsas!! Congrats!!!

I have to completely agree with SweetScrumptious. You look so happy!

OMG--let me first tell you that you are a beautiful and adorable young woman.

I LOVE the photos. Really, I am just sitting here smiling looking at them. You are absolutely stunning and it looks like you are having such fun now. Oh, you should be so proud of you! GO GIRL!

WOOT! WOOT!

Meredith--NOW for the 64K dollar question--HOW DID YOU DO IT? Did I miss it somewhere on the thread. Wow--an incredible transformation.

You are too cute! Congratulations!!!!!!! You are a true inspiration for someone who has just begun their battle (i.e. ME!)

Meredith, I joined this site about the time you were posting your 60 lbs down photos. I have come to look forward to seeing each new batch of photos and you reaching your next goal. I just graduated college and I wish I had been able to lose weight in college as you are doing. I just want you to know you are an inspiration to so many (obviously with like 70 responses to this latest batch of photos). You look amazing and keep it up these last few lbs. There isn't a doubt in my mind that you will never gain back that weight.
