By the way congrats on your huge success! You look amazing as well! So happy for you! Thanks for posting.

Thank you all! I'm so pumped! I don't recognize myself anymore. I'll catch my reflection in the mirror or a building window and I have to do a Double take. I had my surgery in April. I've lost. 77.5 pounds total. I'm officially at my lowest weight as of this morning!!!! I'm soooo pumped! I tried on my string bikini that I've never been able to wear and it actually fits! I'm 14.5 pounds from goal and beyond thrilled at what's to come.

Thank you so much! You have no idea how much those words mean to me. I've been going through literal fiery pits of hell! I want to focus on me and my son healing.

Thank you all so much I always tried to take care of myself regardless of size but I've never truly felt beautiful. I still struggle with body image issues. Plus I've always gravitated towards abusive men who put me down so that makes it worse. I'm trying to break the cycle and be healthier and love myself. I'm going back to therapy and psychiatrist. I appreciate your compliments.

I started at 16/18. I'm short though. So I was a big girl.

5'3" HW 227 SW 210 CW 150 GW 135 Presurgical Size 16/18 Current Size 6 Goal Size 2-4

Girl you look fantastic! Shake them haters off! My bf calls me a bobble head. And Puerto Rican Victoria Beckham. He's cute about it though. But everyone else tells me to stop losing. I don't care I'm 15 pounds from goal!

Aaron! Omg! Mouthwatering HOT! Lol. Love the tats!!!

You look amazing! Congrats.

I've encountered this as well. My soon to be ex told me before surgery, "I don't see how this is going to work. I mean how'd you get so fat in the first place?" When we met to discuss our impending divorce he prefaced a sentence with "Now that you're pretty and skinny...." I was like oh so I'm pretty now I wasn't before. I've noticed women treat me way differently. And it's not always the overweight ones. The pretty thin ones keep me at arms length too. Additionally, guys who I've known for ages and never gave me a second look are popping out of the woodworks. In the words of Sweet Brown..."Ain't Nobody Got Time Fa Dat!"

Girl you can do this!!!! My doc was Dr. Jayaseelan. <3 him !!! Medical City too. I'm sooo pumped! We can all find our healthy, fit, inner goddess!!!! We are in it to win it! It's our turn to turn heads, run marathons, wear anything off the rack, be confident and beautiful!!!

My son had a sleepover last night so I decided to take these crazy lil ones on a nice walk. My son snapped an impromptu pic of me and I almost started bawling! I could not believe my eyes. Who was this woman in this picture?! She certainly cannot be me?! Don't cameras add 10 pounds?! How on earth could I possibly look so lean and fit?! Tears of joy! Screaming with happiness. We're our own worst enemy! Finally the outside is starting to match the inside.

So I was cooking breakfast this morning for me and my boys and I wanted a taste of pancakes but didn't want to overindulge. My man loves to eat so I made us his and hers pancakes.

Hahaha. He was cracking up. It was fun and delicious.

I can't believe my eyes! Almost in tears. I bought these shorts over the summer at Express. I can now fit a size 6 comfortably!!!!

I started at a size 16. I'm only 5'3". Surgery was 9 months ago. I still have 18 pounds to go. Weight loss has slowed down considerably but I have to workout more.

Thank you all!!!! Xoxo. We can do this!!!!!

Thank you all soooo much! I'm beyond thrilled I can't believe this but since I'm short I actually see a size 4 in my future! I've never been consumed with sizes but this is almost unfathomable. I still have tummy bulge and my ass has lost that high bounce it use to have. My thighs are jiggly but I'm ok with that. They are not terrible. Nothing some yoga and weight training can't help. Plus I do see a mommy makeover somewhere in the future. Just trying to wait and see if I'm done having kids. I'm still undecided.

Yes I agree. I was just curious if anyone knew about it first hand before looking into investing in it.

Question to my lady friends. Have any of you heard about a new weight loss program called Venus Factor? I'm in the final stretch of my weight loss journey and I really need to bump up my metabolism. Any thoughts feedback?
