I hope that you relish your new look and your achievement. You look spectacular, and you deserve it!

Good luck to you and your husband.

Awesome job!

And, I agree with another - love the new haircut and the top.

Wow! The difference is amazing. Good luck maintaining and with those ten pounds!

You look great! God bless your DH for serving in the army and you for your sacrifice.

You look amazing. Congratulations and thanks for the inspiration!

Wow, that's such a big difference, congrats

That's awesome. You look fantastic!!

WOW, you look amazing. My hubby is also in the army and deployed, just stay busy and active, and you'll over come the depression. Keep up the great work. I can't wait to reach that day

I just got tired of being seen as "the fat chick" in every group. I'd always wanted to be skinny. It was really odd, one day I woke up in diet mode, lol.

For me, the trick to sticking to it was to get into a routine. I'd excersize every night, without letting things deter me from it. If a friend wanted me to spend the night I would politely decline since I knew I wouldn't work out if I did. Smaller portions was the key factor in all of it.

1. Working out
2. Smaller portions
3. Diet Sodas

I started watching my calories very carefully. If I was hungry between meals I would gorge myself on low calorie chicken broth. It was hot, tasty, filling, and not devestating to my diet. :P

Basicially it came down to me realizing that I wasn't happy with my body, and I was the only one who could change it.

Wow, you look amazing! Seeing your pics made me know that weight loss is possible!! Thanks!

you look great! congrats,

You look TERRIFIC! You are a true inspiration

Holy crap! You look fantastic!!!
