That's great! I am so happy for you! It's nice to see people out there losing weight and succeeding in their goals. I've actually tried NutriSystem, though, and it didn't work for me. I've kind of given up on the whole losing weight thing, even though I really need to lose about 160 lbs. But seeing things like this make me want to get up lose the weight! So thank you for posting this!

You look AMAZING! What an inspiration. I am in the process of trying to lose about the same amount (as you can see by my ticker). Sometimes it just seems impossible. I'm glad that you posted your before and after. A visual reminder of the possibility really helps! Can I ask how tall you are? Congrats and keep up the good work!

Awesome Job! I'd love to do NS but after looking at the price don't think I could afford it with having to purchase food too for DH and the kids.

Wow, thanks again everyone - it means a lot for me to know that I'm inspiring others. I spent a lot of time feeling like losing weight with PCOS was a lost cause, but keep the hope alive, take it a day at a time, and know that it's possible!!! I know that these discussion forums are a great place to get inspired when you're feeling low, too -- I've drawn a lot of inspiration from others here, too

(and also know that even along the way I did have my days where I would slip up and still let myself have treats (like tonight - I'm on vacation and just went out for a fabulous Afghani dinner and let myself enjoy ). When I did slip up, I'd acknowledge it, forgive myself, and keep moving forward, knowing the next day was a chance to reboot).

I'm 5'3 and have been lifting weights so have built a lot of muscle mass which I think is why at 132 pounds I can wear a size 4 (lifting weights along with exercising was the best decision I'd made -- my metabolism has sped up so much that I can enjoy a big meal now and again...or even ice cream...and my body knows what to do with it!).

Yeah that's something a lot of people with families have said - I'm single so for me it's made a lot of sense -- I used to spend even more than this on food eating out, so it has simplified things a lot for me. The plan is based on eating smaller meals more frequently and there are people who "follow NS" without buying the food. There may even be a cookbook and their web site has some great forums, too!
