We give props to these brave women for posting their before-and-after weight loss photos in their bathing suits (or at least very revealing coverups). See their amazing transformations in these side-by-side pics!

This is what exercise and eating right did for this woman!

Plenty of protein, whole grains, and exercise is what is helping this woman slim down.

After she lost 150 pounds, she found the bathing suit she'd worn in her before photo--and it fit much, much better.

The day her grandmother died, this woman went on a walk to clear her head--and loved it so much the walks turned into jogs turned into marathons. Plus, she now watches what she eats!

She was afraid of losing her bosomy look, but doesn't care now because she also ditched the belly and body fat. In her words: "Don't hold on to the superficial for the beneficial!"

Okay, so this woman wasn't the heaviest, but she probably wasn't thrilled with the belly rolls. She ditched sugar and voila! Mini bikini-ready!

Who hasn't resorted to the tanks-and-short coverup trick when everyone else is flaunting their stuff in a bathing suit? Now, this woman doesn't have to!

For 18 months, this mom struggled with depression, until she realized her then-4-year-old was growing up without her. She got help and three years later is a happier, healthier person.

There's a 42-pound difference in these two photos. The secret, according to this woman? Going to the gym.

This young woman's name is Vanessa--and she looks amazing!

This woman also ditched sugar and lost 10 pounds and a whopping 6.5 inches. The bathing suit is from Marshall's!
