Hi,
I haven't posted much here yet, but the reading's been really helpful. I have now lost 25 lbs, and took pictures to celebrate. Check out my pretty deltoids!

Please excuse pit hair and general nastiness in the "before" pics. I had an 11-month old and was still getting it together.

Wow, erinket, you look fabulous. What a bod!! I take it there was a year in between those pics, not four days, right?!

you look awesome i am at the weight you started at my goal is what you weigh now what did you follow

Four days If I continued at that rate, I'd be gone in less than three weeks

Thanks for the compliments!

I've been running 15 miles a week or so, and doing a little extra cardio to equal about an hour a day 5-6 days a week. I take Sculpt classes a couple of times a week and sometimes throw in an extra day of weight training on my own.

I aim for around 1600-1800 calories a day, 50% carb, 25% protien, 25% fat, 25 grams of fiber or more.

You look great. Thanks for sharing the inspirational pic's.

Wow, you look awesome! You can really see the difference in the side view.

you look amazing! Congratulations!

I only wish I had taken before and after pictures like that, I imagine that it must really help you stay motivated to keep losing/maintaining

Looking great! Keep it up!! How tall are you?

Thank you, everyone. I am 5'6".

great job! nice abs!

You look great!!! Way to go!!!

Wow, you look smoking. I hope to share some great picture like that one day. Thank you for sharing!

You look awesome!! You are great motivation for me. That is awesome that you are running 15 miles a week- how did you start? I think running is a great way to get your body in shape but I get tired after running 1 minute (lol) do you have any suggestions?

Thanks and congratulations again you look great!

Whoa! What a hottie! You look great!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who takes progress pics in my undies!
