Wendy's weight loss journey "Looking back, I never thought I was that big -- I just remember being unhappy," says Wendy. "I still want to lose 10 more pounds, but I'm proud I got this far. And even though I might have my cheat days -- like the holidays, or when I'm watching football -- I'm motivated to keep it up because I never want to go back to how I was."

Wendy looks great! I've been wanting a hair makeover for a while and I just purchased a groupon voucher for an Aveda hair salon. I think I'm going to hold out and see if I can reach my weight loss goal before the groupon expires this August. I'm inspired!

She looks really beautiful. I love that they did not alter a lot about her appearance. I hope this makes her realize her own natural beauty.
