This is an interesting topic as my husband and I were just talking about this the other day. Even though I have always thought of my self as a big boned girl I look so small now. Mind you I wear a 6 or 8 now with a med top but the veins pop on my arms and I have one vein I noticed on my forehead. So ya I think you can have a larger frame but will appear petite after losing weight

We have the same starting weight and when I think of where you are now, and the fact that I too could get that small, it is mind boggling to me!! I could be as small as my youngest daughter who I think is skinny and is a size 6! I just cant even imagine!!!!

You are truly my inspiration!

Oh you can do it. I've seen your posts on the boards and you are one determined lady. It is mind boggling... Even now!!! But get ready it seems like it takes forever to lose the weight but when I look back it happened so fast the mind just doesn't have time to catch up
