Carrie 5,186 Posted February 27, 2014 You're looking great! What is your goal weight/size? Quote Link to comment
Dorothy 1,824 Posted February 27, 2014 WOW!! What plan are you following or how are you doing this? Quote Link to comment
mimi 4,887 Posted February 27, 2014 Carrie my goal was to lose 100lbs. So my goal weight would be 147 Dorothy I don't know that I am doing anything out of the ordinary. I calculate my calories in with myfitnesspal.com and my calories out with my fitbit (tracks steps during the day). Then I just solve for "X" and make sure my calories out are within in a certain range (500-1000) higher then my calories in. I just look at it like a math problem instead of a "this food is good or bad" thing. 2 Quote Link to comment
coingirl 1,297 Posted February 27, 2014 You look great! Good for you, you have done an amazing job! Quote Link to comment
Plinda 5,307 Posted February 27, 2014 You look fabulous! I would have gained 60 pounds with all your stress. 1 Quote Link to comment
mimi 4,887 Posted February 27, 2014 lol I think the stress has to opposite result on me. I keep realizing it is dinner time and I have not eaten all day. Then I grab a quick protein shake to hold me over then am too busy to eat dinner. I am ready for things to slow down a bit I have been making a conscious effort to eat at least 3 times a day. 1 Quote Link to comment
kate 687 Posted February 27, 2014 are you saying that you weigh 187 in that last picture!!! i don't believe it. You are wearing a size 12 - you are rocking 187. I can't even imagine you 40 pounds lighter. You go girl. Awesome, amazing. And you will be SO GLAD you have done it now and are not still packing it around in 30 years as I am. Quote Link to comment

GreatLakesGirl 4,666 Posted February 27, 2014 I think your scale is broken. You look slimmer than 186.6. 2 Quote Link to comment
no1else2323 1,266 Posted February 27, 2014 Congrats!!!! Sexy dress, too! That wrap style looks great on you. Quote Link to comment
mimi 4,887 Posted February 27, 2014 lol, yeah I was *sure* it was broken when it said 247 I have always "carried it well" till......well I suddenly didn't! No1else I love the wrap as well! I bought it then refused to even try it on because I wanted it to be special when I hit 60lbs I am taking the girls to a theater production next week and really wanted to wear it since the girls will be in their "fanciest dresses". I am pairing it with my knee high black boots :D 7 Quote Link to comment
Annie 402 Posted February 28, 2014 Way to go, girl! What an awesome accomplishment:) Great app-myfitnesspal. I am trying to ditch 10 pounds and the app helps me see diet has too much fat and not enough protein. And it is free!!!! Quote Link to comment
mimi 4,887 Posted February 28, 2014 Thanks I just moved from obese to overweight according to my BMI Another 40lbs puts me a "normal weight" 1 Quote Link to comment
miranova 6,365 Posted February 28, 2014 Wow, how tall are you? When I weighed 141 at Christmas I looked much bigger than you do in your last pic! I'm down to 129, not as drastic as your weight loss of course but on my frame I looked big at 141! You definitely carry it well! Great job! 1 Quote Link to comment
mimi 4,887 Posted February 28, 2014 I am 5ft 7 so not super tall by any stretch of the imagination I am however the tallest woman in my family. My brother is 6ft 5 so I come from tall genes Quote Link to comment
Carrie 5,186 Posted February 28, 2014 That's pretty tall; you do carry weight well. I looked fluffy at 147, but perfect (for me) at 125. I'm vowing to never get back in the 140's again (after this pregnancy is done, of course). Quote Link to comment
GreatLakesGirl 4,666 Posted February 28, 2014 Just wait until you're older than 40 or 50 and your metabolism turns on you. It can make a grown woman cry. Quote Link to comment

I'm vowing to never get back in the 140's again (after this pregnancy is done, of course). I would kiss the scale if it said 140 I would probably look sick at 125 but I have never been there so I don't know :D Quote Link to comment

Carrie 5,186 Posted March 1, 2014 I love the dress, btw. Love, love the wrap style. Where did you find it? One of these days I'll be done being a shape shifter and will be looking to buy clothes. Quote Link to comment
