hello, info and pics
Hello Everybody
I'm 5'7 and 30 years old. My the most I weight was 272, as of today I'm 147.
I had never been over weight growing up; I started having kids at 16. I have 5 kids 4 boys 1 girl (she is the youngest) ages are from 14,12,10,8,5. I never gave my body a chance to lose the gained weight after each baby.
I'm also getting married this April and he has one son. So 6 total, and he wants to have one together (OMG)... anyways I would like to lose 12 more lbs. but I have every one telling me that if I lost anymore weight I will look sick.. You know how it take a while for our minds to catch up with everything that's happens to our body. I still feel overweight. I don't feel sexy. My fiancée is always telling me how pretty and sexy he thinks I am.
I don't have a lot of excess skin, when I stand in front of the mirror there is nothing but when I sit or lean forward I look like im 90 yrs old.
I really want to have a tummy tuck along with other things. But my fiancée thinks im nuts.
Here is a link to my yahoo photo albums the first is 5 before pics and them the 2nd album is today.

Lord almighty, ALma. Youa re drop dead gorgeous!!! WOW!
I know what you mean about the skin. I hate that I have so much excess skin, but in clothes you can't tell at all. When I tell people I have extra skin, no one believes me. But believe me; it's definitely there!
You look amazing....you truly do. YOu are so pretty!
Hugs,
Denise
