Thanks so much!
Those pants in that photo are much too big for me now. But I just got some new black jeans that fit and the black and white top is still good.
in fact, I might try that top with a black miniskirt.....
 
WOW! Sexy lady!

I adore that corset! I'd love to be able to wear one of them, but I have NEVER been able to find one that fits decent. If the waist fits, the boobs are spilling all over the top. If the boobs fit, then the waist section just hangs there, not even touching me hardly. And that's unfortunate because pretty underwear like that are ideal for women like me that have horrible stretch marks on our tummies to hide!

I bet HB loved the outfit!
 
You are just beautiful Rox! And I don't know it's like something beautiful from within just radiates :)
 
I just thought I'd check in and say that all is well!

I've been busy and stressed-out this summer, but still managing to eat right and work out.

I'm maintaining at 140 and keeping fit, despite the ongoing crisis in my life.

Somehow, it keeps me sane!

It's still hard for me to look at a photo like this and believe it's really me! I never thought I could be so normal-looking!


(BTW- In the photo is my eldest daughter (age 18!), who lost weight along with me and is still keeping fit. I'm so proud of her!)
 
You look anything but normal, you look stunning, fantastic, gorgeous and more and you are a real inspiration to those of us just starting out!

You're so nice to say so!

And I'm so glad you find my story inspiring! It's been a rough road and it's shown me how tough I can be.


When I started my journey, it was hard to even imagine how it would turn out. And now, more than a year and a half later, I am living in an ideal BMI body that is fit and healthy.

I want everyone on this site to have this same experience.

So- you GO, Silash!
 
AYou look fantastic, Rox. You remind of the singer from Roxette when she was younger.

AFabulously inspiring!! you are stunning!! Thanks so much for sharing!! Gives me such hope that I really can do this!! :hurray:
 
Wow! Thanks for all the lovely feedback! And I'm loving all of the comparison pics. I think Pink is SO cool-looking!


And I've never had anyone make the Roxette comparison. Mostly people say I remind them of a younger Annie Lennox.(of The Eurythmics), which is also pretty cool.


I adore it that I have kind of an edgy look now and remind people of rock stars. SO awesome! I never would have dreamed of this when I was an unhappy 220 woman wondering if she could ever change!


Just for a comparison, here's a picture of my eldest daughter and I taken in January of 2010. I should have posted it with the first photo, but I'd forgotten I had it...and with good reason. I think I look so old and dull!
 
AYour transformation is just ....... jaw-dropping!

I definitely see the Annie Lennox comparison. You DO look like a rockstar! lol! You and your daughter are both gorgeous!!! :)
 
AYour story makes me so happy because you've done what I've always wanted to do... although not to a husband, but to my old boyfriends, lose the weight and simultaneously give them the finger! For some reason it's always been associated in my head (although maybe not in real life) but when my old relationships would end, I would somehow end up binging and eating a lot and feeling depressed about myself and wondering if it didn't work out with them because I have always been kind of heavy. And now that I'm in a happy relationship and I'm happier and happier with my figure every day, you'd think that desire to look super hot and make them jealous would go away (because they'll probably never see me again, and even if they did I'm sure they wouldn't be jealous) but it doesn't. Sometimes when I'm pushing super hard on a run or at the gym, I think, I'm going to look so hot and show what's-his-name what he's missing out on, even if I never see him again in my life. I don't know why I think thoughts like that, because I don't even care about those people, but it is DEFINITELY motivating. I know I don't know much about your situation with your husband or ex-husband, but I hope when you're working out and looking super hot, you think to yourself...."Who came out on top!?!" Because it is definitely you. You look so great!!!
