Saff, that is epic. You look AWESOME, and your mom is unreal.

You already know about my weight/exercise plans, and now I know more about why you cautioned me against going too far. I definitely need more toning than anything else – I’m a size 10 at 160 pounds. You should see my calf muscles. RAWR. XD

My goal is still 140 and size 8, but if I don’t get there, I’m not going to explode. Even after all this exercise and diet changes, my weight isn’t budging. I think it must be muscle. Again, RAWR. :p

I’ve seen you! You are not fat. You look great. And that outfit with the fishnet stockings? Hot!

Thunder thighs. Sheesh. If she wants to see thunder thighs, send her to my house.

You definitely deserve a love(1 million) for this post, even if we’re not on Ravelry. You are so totally right and I’m really proud of you. You are a million times more beautiful in the last pictures than in the first one.
And you’re totally right that most women’s problem isn’t being overweight, it’s a lack of toning. I’m very excited to be rejoining a gym now that I’ve moved because I definitely need to do some toning before my wedding.

Hunny, I think you are absolutely gorgeous and your mom is insane in thinking you are fat. You are a REAL woman, not a stick figure.

I gained 15-20 lbs my last year of college and while I do miss some of the skinniness at times, I am very happy with my weight right now. I don’t feel scrawny. I feel comfortable with myself. I hadn’t felt that before.

Not everyone has to fit into “skinny” and happiness is where you find it yourself. I hope you mom comes to terms with that sooner rather then later. *big hugs*
