Biggest Loser - GRAND FINALE!!

It's the week you've all been waiting for!! That's right, it's the final weigh-in and reveal! It has been 12 long weeks and 16 big pounds of fat gone!
The final weights are
Me (154 - Total of 16 pounds!!)
Jess (150 - Total of 11 pounds!!) - Check her page to see her reveal!!
Officially, that makes me the winner. Woohoo! But, we are both winners in my book (do you hear the sappy movie music?). O.k., o.k., on to the good stuff...
Here is the before picture for Jess:
And, here's mineAnd here is the after......




















Ummm... you better tell me that you can tell a difference with the face and neck (I used to have 2 necks, now I only have 1!!) Oh, and I love my new dew!! It's perfect for the hot Summer here in Florida!
As far as my stomach and boobs go... Oh my! This has been the trouble area for some time. I not only went down a pant size, I also went down a bra size. By the way, let me just say looking for a new bra is not nearly as exciting as looking for new clothes. I still have a very hard time finding anything in my size that doesn't look like something my Grandma would wear. I have come to the conclusion that boobs are just not "in". Tough luck for me and my large chested friends. Anyhow, on to more positive thoughts. Look, I am wearing jeans and there is not a roll hanging out the top! What?!! Too exciting! I am still not where I want to be here, but I'm not done losing fat.
I am only about half way, so I will continue to watch my eating and exercise throughout the Summer. I hope to be down another 14 pounds by the time of my cruise. If so, you better believe you'll see another reveal.

Holy cow! you look great! I love the hair...I've been wanting to hack mine off.

I have a suggestion for the next big reveal...I think by then it will be time for a 2 piece!

Congrats and good luck!

Thank you all for the wonderful encouragement! I think I only stuck to it so well because I knew you all would be reading this every week.

Billie,
Ain't no way this body is getting in a 2 piece EVER AGAIN!! The stretch marks that cover me from my upper thighs to boobs are not something I want to show to the world.
Actually, the funny thing is, I have only worn a 2 piece 1 day of my entire life. The day before I got married, I wore a bikini (I was never allowed to wear one growing up). 6 months later, I was pregnant and that's all she wrote.

Yeah, apparently bra manufacturers haven't gotten with the concept of sizes for everyone. Ugh! Congratulations!
